BDR for Financial SaaS Platform

A good thing about the software is that it has a lot of functionalities. This does mean that there's a learning curve for new team members. I'd say it's definetly worth the time to invest in learning the different functionalities. Cognism even did an in person training to help us get the most out of the platform. Overal the lead generation we're realizing with Cognism is amazing. It helps us find the correct prospect: we can filter through dozens of very detailed filters, helping us to find our exact ICP. It also connects with our CRM which makes this process even easier. Once we have identified the right prospects for our accounts we can then find their contact details (mobiles, HQ, direct lines and email addresses). The speed with which we can contact our prospects has improved our sales cycle by a lot! We can also request Cognism to look for mobile numbers if they aren't know yet. This allows us to contact executives whom usually don't have mobile numbers that show. The quality of the data has been a lot higher quality compared to other vendors.

Pros:

We've been using Cognism for more than 1.5 years now and from the start it has been great. The value it provides our business development team and sales team is immense. In short what our teams like is that we can find the right prospect for each account, and then easily find the right contact details so we can reach out to them. Before this process took a lot of our time. Now we can work at speed, which shortens our sales cycles and improves our bottom line.

Cons:

The 'Diamond Verify' function (Cognism looking to find mobile numbers not yet known) is amazing! The only comment on it is that it sometimes takes quite a while to receive them, while these usually are very urgent and important calls to make. Receiving this faster would be amazing.

Reasons for switching to Cognism

Lusha didn't have mobile numbers for a lot of our prospects, so we tested a few other tools to see if they were better. Cognism won: had a lot of accurate contact data.

Excellent Contact Data, Simple to Use

Cognism has been a positive overall experience. The data accuracy, especially for mobile numbers, is excellent and integrates well with our CRM. It reliably speeds up our sales outreach process.

Functionality

Pros:

What I like best about Cognism is how smoothly it integrates with our existing tools. The Salesforce integration is fantastic for keeping our data clean and saving reps time. I also love the pop-up notifications right inside Sales Navigator, it's incredibly helpful to get quick contact information without leaving the page. Overall, it’s a very user-friendly platform that simply makes our outreach much more efficient.

Cons:

What I dislike most is the limited data reach in the APAC region. While it's great for US/EU, getting comprehensive contact details in Asia Pacific is often challenging. Also, I occasionally notice some app slowness, especially when running large list exports, which can slightly disrupt workflow.

Best in Class

seamless I implemented it in my previous company, testing it against a top competitor. Not only did it have the best contact data and integrations but our sales experience was amazing. Our AE ([sensitive content hidden] kept in touch throughout the trial and in the initial months to ensure a smooth adoption. Delighted to find out my new employer is already using it too.

Functionality

Pros:

The contact data is much better in EMEA region as compared to what ZoomInfo offers, we have seen a tremendous ROI on the data acquired from Cognism for few licenses in EMEA as compared to ZoomInfo. The product team is great and is willing to accommodate our needs and asks. Working like a true partner vs. treating you as a customer. I would definitely recommend them.

Cons:

There are certain features that other tools offer as compared to Cognism. Things like company hierarchy, more detailed information, scoops, etc. Focusing a bit more on the account intel and the UX around it would make a great difference.

Reasons for choosing Cognism

Better data in EMEA and rest of the world. ZoomInfo is very NA heavy

Reasons for switching to Cognism

Cost + Data availability. Limited export capability at the time which I know is not the same anymore
