Excellent data, helpful tools, easy UI
DataFox helps us source more leads and prioritize outreach more efficiently, improving our CRM's quality of data and our overall success in targeting/reaching prospects.
PROSThe plug-in to Salesforce is great, they provide CEO contacts which is such a time-saver, lots of the data proves to be correct (things like employee count and recent fundraising), and I love the conference prospecting capability and Slack news updates as well. DataFox helps us source more leads and prioritize outreach more efficiently, improving our CRM's quality of data and our overall success in targeting/reaching prospects.
CONSI find the notifications that come up on the bottom right can be annoying, and sometimes things take longer to sync than usual, but I just x-out the notification boxes and the customer support is always super helpful to the sync issues we have.

Datafox for Companies
Overall, I am really glad we are using them. They offer multiple functions.
PROSI really enjoy being able to built company list within datafox and using them for conference's to see who is exhibiting and the company that will be attending. Always update when I ask.
CONSI do not like that it's not a bi-directional sync. I want to edit in Datafox and have it be pushed to Salesforce.

Good idea, but has some flaws.
I think the customer support is the best aspect - always a quick and friendly response to any issues. The integration with Salesforce is decent, but it leaves a lot to be desired depending on how customized your Salesforce instance is.
CONSThe list building feature could use a lot of work - there are times (too often for my liking) that data changes within the list don't save. Additionally, there are a lot of issues around companies not being able to sync to Salesforce (I'll often get an error message).

Datafox is great for finding accounts
The main thing I use Datafox for is prospecting new accounts. They have an integration with Salesforce which makes it very easy to build reports and filter results with your Salesforce fields. The integration with Slack is awesome for getting alerts on your current accounts as well. The extension is very useful for seeing what technology companies have running on their website.
CONSIf the naming convention in Datafox is different than the naming in your Salesforce, Datafox will not recognize the account.

Love DataFox (especially the Plug-In)!
I use DataFox multiple times everyday. Definitely before every meeting. It's a great source of data to get a feel for what a company is using behind the scenes.
PROSI love the plugin. In terms of prospecting a company and scraping their tech stack, there's nothing better!
CONSThe contact information can be out of date. I typically use it for account details over contact details.

SO helpful for prospecting
The incredible amount of data is key to prospecting, especially confirming technological and firmographic qualifications. It's also great for finding new companies outside of our CRM, especially those with funding or using certain technologies.
CONSCan be kind of buggy, and support is just not great for end-users. Data is definitely not always accurate.

A nightmare that works
The ability to import your own data and custom fields on top of the data DataFox already has is incredible. It really makes putting lists together and getting information organized easy... when it works!
CONSThe fact that there are a lot of bugs and bad support are the 2 things that make me want to pull my hair out. If they could fix the little glitches and have a less complicated support process, this product would be amazing.

PROSAs a user, It really helps me to find the companies that match my prospective. Overall the User interface is good which makes ease of use.
CONSSometime the data are not displayed the way I want and time session is short I get logout very often when not in use for short period of time. I think its for security purpose.

DataFox review
The software is overall ok. It is a great idea but needs work.
PROSDataFox has really good filters to narrow down the accounts I’d like to prospect into for my job. It’s built to get additional info on companies.
CONSThe software glitches a lot and isn’t the highest quality. It could have better UI and less bugs in the software.

Not Worth it... maybe in the future
I loved the ability to have custom fields and a lot of customization.
CONSThere is a lot. Before their "refresh", we had countless issues with data discrepancies across the team and issues with defunct companies appearing in the database. That was the biggest issue

Best Data for Smaller Companies
The SFDC integration is great, and the listbuilding function is awesome - they have the best data you can find on smaller, private companies.
CONSThe Parent/Child relationships are not that great, but I don't believe I've ever used a data provider that did this well.
