Integration with professional networks has optimized contact sourcing and outreach strategies
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The best features that ZoomInfo offers include the integration with LinkedIn which is one of the best features because that means when I'm prospecting and researching, I can easily find the right contacts. I also love the feature that enables me to see who's more likely to respond via email or via call. It's not always 100% accurate but it helps me level up and do the right method of outreach to the right person.
Additionally, I love the integration features that I can easily integrate with the software that I need such as SalesLoft, so I can quickly import the contacts.
ZoomInfo positively impacts my organization because it helps us do prospecting which in turn helps us get meetings, opportunities and revenue.
What needs improvement?
I think ZoomInfo can be improved because their number accuracy is still an issue. It's not specific to ZoomInfo; it's the same across the board with competitors. I can call up numbers and they can be incorrect, or sometimes the emails might not work, so even though it's great software, there's still errors with the contact information they're providing.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using ZoomInfo for about six months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
ZoomInfo is super stable in my experience. It's very reliable and easy to use.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
ZoomInfo's scalability is great because you can use it with as many different users as you want and everyone has the same functionality, so it's fully scalable.
How are customer service and support?
I don't know how ZoomInfo's customer support is, as I've never needed to call them.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I didn't use a previous solution before.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup with ZoomInfo is super easy because you just log in with the account and then you're good to go. It's a very straightforward mechanism.
What was our ROI?
I've seen a return on investment with ZoomInfo because it definitely saves me hours of work when I'm prospecting in terms of the ability to quickly get the data and import it where I need.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing ZoomInfo, we evaluated other options as an organization. We looked at things such as Lusha. However, I'm not the decision maker, so this wasn't a decision that I made. That was done by senior management.
What other advice do I have?
My advice to others looking into using ZoomInfo is to make sure that whatever software you're onboarding has the integrations that you need, the usability and also the most accurate data.
On a scale of 1-10, I rate ZoomInfo an 8 out of 10.
This a great sales tool

This tool has changed my sales process in the best way
Exceptional sales and onboarding for new customers!
The sales process was top notch (we strive to emulate it ourselves) and the onboarding process helped our team maximize the value from the platform.
Even though we are in early days, the preliminary results are impressive with more qualified sales opportunities in our pipeline.
Easy to use, more trusted contacts than other options
- Insights around who's visiting your websites;
- Generally reliable contact information, including more stable than other "free" options like Apollo
- Contact search using lists of companies makes targeting very straightforward
- Inability to see a more full list of entities visiting our website
- Targeting tools are not useful for our SaaS vertical due to lack of related search terms
Integration with existing tools streamlines sales data processes
What is our primary use case?
We use ZoomInfo to provide data for our sales team. It helps us in obtaining contact information for companies we want to target, looking up their personas by job titles, and getting emails and phone numbers.
What is most valuable?
Regarding the best features that ZoomInfo offers, I am not sure they have best features; they are a data provider, and good features would be the fact that they integrate with our current CRM and previous CRMs, as with our cadencing tools.
I can tell you that those integrations have helped streamline our processes, but I do not have specific outcomes. I hear some sales reps appreciate the integrations, and then I hear some find it clunky when they are going between ZoomInfo and their CRM and their cadencing software, so I do not have any key instances, but I just have general ones.
One other thing I have noticed about ZoomInfo's features is that I appreciate their focus on intent data and how they are trying to surface accounts that are more in market, using a bunch of different data sources for that. They have really improved that since when they first launched, it was three to four week old data, which was not really helping with intent, so now they have upped that and changed the game.
What needs improvement?
From my perspective, ZoomInfo can be improved because, as any data provider, there is always room for better data. I have heard from the team that the data could be improved, especially phone numbers for sure in EMEA, which is really bad, and then job changes are usually two months behind LinkedIn in terms of updating people's contact information when they change a job.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using ZoomInfo for seven, eight, or even nine years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
ZoomInfo's scalability works because you just add users.
How are customer service and support?
Regarding customer support, I know they have moved away from a one-on-one customer success approach, which I understand, but they have done a lot more videos, and I find it to be fine.
On a scale of one to ten, I would rate their customer support an eight.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup with ZoomInfo is straightforward.
What was our ROI?
I have not seen a return on investment with ZoomInfo, so I cannot share relevant metrics.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
ZoomInfo is the highest in the market, which can be frustrating, as they also try to add on potentially unnecessary things, and there have been many other players that have come out in the space.
What other advice do I have?
If I have advice for others looking into using ZoomInfo, it would be to definitely do comparisons between at least two other data providers and also read reviews of ZoomInfo and other data providers for companies of the same size team and same use case. I would also want to talk to sales ops, marketing ops, and other sales leaders to see how their teams have experienced ZoomInfo.
On a scale of one to ten, I rate ZoomInfo a six overall. The reason I rate it a six is because it is not perfect, they have got issues with telephone data in EMEA, and they are lagging in terms of job change information updates.
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
