A business-changer

5.0 2 months ago New

Pros:

This really changed the way that our recruiters business developed - allowing us ease of data to decision makers in one click

Cons:

I wouldn't say least liked, the entire tool is great but we are excited for further integrations to come live

A very complete and user-friendly software

5.0 6 months ago

Pros:

I think Cognism is the most complete, complex, and user-friendly software there is, at this time, and I can say that as I have been using it daily for multiple hours/day for more than 4 months. The web extension is a really great feature, due to its accessibility and user-friendly interaction. It has a very complete database regarding leads, with a lot of verified contact details, along with a great way to better qualify your leads, and not waste time on low-quality ones. Our CSM is very prompt and easy to talk to. He is always there whenever we have a problem and always finds a solution to the problem.

Cons:

I would say the thing that I somewhat dislike are the cases in which the Chrome extension cannot get information details from some of the LinkedIn leads, especially from countries in Asia more specifically.

Efficient Lead Generation with Cognism

4.0 2 months ago New

Pros:

Here's a review based on your outline: We've had a great experience using Cognism for building prospect lists and gathering detailed information for setting up our leads in Salesforce. It consistently manages to provide information for at least 70% of our lists, which significantly enhances our lead generation efforts.

Cons:

It would be good if you could import one CSV file and map the columns to filter instead of importing several different CSV files to filter.

Very Poor, it has no database

1.0 3 months ago

Comments: Very Poor.

Pros:

Nothing. It has no database- all available is never updated emails and phone numbers. 90% bounce rate on emails and 95% the contact number is not available.

Cons:

Everything.

Great for EMEA Data

4.0 4 months ago

Comments: I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 for my ease of work & helping find the right POC. It helped me nail a couple of deals as we didn't have contact info for right POC

Pros:

User friendly & intuitive Intent/Sales Data insights I use it daily Best data quality in terms of accuracy

Cons:

Can not go a layer further into data when regional language comes into play Errors sometimes multiple times during a day
