Likelihood to Recommend
Probably ok if you really don't care who you are sending your outreach to. Really bad for anyone who cares about sending a specific message to a specific audience. Probably not great for clients who enjoy reliable communication, quality results, or actually receiving what you're paying for.

This is a highly recommended product. The
platform is compiled of all the good features to be a part of any organization
of any masses. The
account-based product marketing which is one of the best features in UpLead
which allows users to target the audience which is the best for the product and
help in increasing conversion. It provides data of different companies and
contacts with the picture, email addresses, and social media accounts.

Pros
  • Integrates well with tools that work with LinkedIn Sales Navigator to scrap lead emails.
  • Makes it easy to manage large-scale cold email campaigns with 3+ steps.
  • When a prospect replies to an email, it doesn't send them any of the automated emails which allow me to follow-up with those warm leads correctly.

  • UpLead is the best lead database in terms of price per lead and provided the most accurate and valid emails.
  • It constantly updates their list and adding new people, companies and removes bad leads. However, you need to very careful when you are filtering and sorting data, and any wrong selection can cause tons of garbage leads/ emails.
  • It allows us to send the information directly to our CRM, saving me time and keeping us organized.
  • We especially appreciate the real-time email verification feature of UpLead.

Cons
  • There are some issues with downloading reports. That is, some information is only available in-product and you cannot export these things.
  • Creating dynamic replies or steps in Persist isn't currently available.
  • Sometimes the Persist system doesn't catch errors in unfilled prospect fields. One must be check and be careful not to send these types of emails.

In my opinion, poor service, and in our experience, ignoring our advise on who our customers are.

The tool is robust, it's powerful, it's accurate, and it's extremely helpful and pivotal in my current banking sales role. I could not succeed without UpLead's accurate data and contact information. I'm thankful that such an incredible service exists at such a fair and reasonable price, thank you for the value that you provide your customers and thank you for making me a very successful salesman and wealthier man

Alternatives Considered
Compared to MailChimp, Persist IQ allows for more personalization, simpler emails, and more complete campaigns. MailChimp is basically a tool for bulk email with heavy design. Versus Marketo, PersistIQ is much more user friendly. You don't need to be an engineer or SQL master to use Persist. It's made for sales and marketing folks. Marketo is built for bigger teams with engineers and CRM experts. Marketo is better for nurture campaigns and automated email, plus database management and as a CRM. But Persist is a much lighter option and it's WAY cheaper. I've used the Gmail plug-in for HubSpot and their templates feature. It's not great for bulk email or building out campaigns, but it's nice to have canned messages right in Gmail. To use PersistIQ on the other hand, one must work directly in their system, not in Gmail, although replies and sent messages do go directly though the email provider.

These both software are the lead bases but both have differences, and UpLead is a better database than ZoomInfo. The major difference that I encountered while using ZoomInfo was that a lot of my emails bounced back. On the other hand, UpLead has real-time email verification. So, there was a high chance when using ZoomInfo that a large number of my emails were bounced back as the email ids were either fake or didn't even exist in the first place.

Return on Investment

  • We use the data to conduct highly targeted email campaigns, on average we're seeing open rates anywhere from 35% to 60% which is very good.
  • We have been able to reduce our cost per lead (CPL) by 20% using UpLead.
  • Using their intent data we can now actively market to warm leads.
