Can't be beat!

It's been awesome. I shy away from sharing it for fear my competitors will find and use it too, but I've already recommended it to 20 plus colleagues.

PROS

The software is easy to use and very very rarely doesn't find anything. I can always do a deep search if I need to.

CONS

Phone and Email validation are only available on the Chrome Extension at the moment, but that should be changing I've been told.

Reason for choosing Swordfish

I also use SignalHire, but Swordfish is more trusted because of the validation of data.

Reasons for switching to Swordfish

The data was better and more accurate. The lead pool was far greater and not as limited.

swordfish ai is a winner!

Fantastic!

PROS

Ease of use, system customer support, amount of information & the speed in which my information is produced.

CONS

Nothing at this time that has stood out to me. It still under review.

Reason for choosing Swordfish

Ease of use! and customer support.

Reasons for switching to Swordfish

Ease of use and I was not comfortable with using the other operating system. This took me 3 minutes to learn how to search the data base via the initial free trial!

Its a Scam run

Terrible

PROS

NONE I was lied too and sold a one time plan I have it in writting and told credits would last for 12 months and 3 months later they took away the credits.... And told me to pay again to get them back

CONS

Most of the numbers were wrong. They violated my contract and tried to charge me reoccuing charges instead of the ONE TIME Charge I agreed on and have in writting

Reasons for switching to Swordfish

They are scamming salesman with a terrible producy

Vendor Response

Hi Jesse, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I'm sorry to hear you haven't had a positive experience. I've reviewed your account and can see you had an annual contract, payable quarterly. Credits are valid for 12 months but only when payments are kept up to date. If you'd like to discuss your concerns in more detail please do reach out via email or telephone. Kind regards Melanie

Swordfish is a game changer

It's been great.

PROS

Swordfish lets me connect with the right candidates for the best jobs. They spider for ways to connect, be it social media or online, and it works. The contact info is validated and accurate, and candidates are amazed when connected. I've hired a few through its success.

CONS

New privacy laws and guidelines mean less results, but 8 out of 10 is significantly better than other resources and much easier/faster than others. 100% improvement on ZoomInfo, which is clunky, old data and time suck.

Reasons for switching to Swordfish

ease, cost and accuracy

Sourcing Sleuth Approved

Excellent!

PROS

I'm a Sr. Technical Recruiter in the Americas focusing on technical sourcing for cybersecurity professionals. I have a degree in cybersecurity, and I use OSINT to find candidates. Person of interest (POI) searches are time consuming and the value of this tool is the ability to get bulk contact information fast. I use LinkedIn Sales Navigator, and I can search and add contact information from the extension. I also scrape a lot of data from various websites and can perform bulk uploads quickly. This makes my recruitment marketing so much easier, because I can export the lists and upload it to my applicant tracking system. I then send SMS and emails to candidates. The real value of this tool is reducing time to hire in the recruitment process and speeding up sourcing. I consider this tool to be very cost effective as well. In one placement you will earn far more than the annual cost of this tool. Comparable tools cost more and aren't nearly as accurate. Swordfish has exceeded my expectations, don't hesitate to add it to your suite of recruitment tools.

CONS

I do not have any complaints. This is an excellent product!

Vendor Response

Thank you for the kind words. I hope others will also see the light and if you do have any features and suggestions for improvements, we are always open to hear and quick to implement.

Great information for price!

PROS

We really like that it is easy to use and implement for all of our recruiters. Good leads fast.

CONS

We feel that sometimes the provided information isn't the most accurate and in lots of cases not available at all.

Vendor Response

Hi Rebecca, Thank you so much for the review. We do admit that data in itself is tricky! Our competitors will tell you their data is 100% accurate, we will not lie to you :) We proudly have an 82% average accuracy rate on our first cell phone number, and a 90%+ accuracy rate on our first email addresses. If you have any further concerns about our data, please feel free to reach out to us, along with your file, and we'll be happy to issue you free credits to keep you satisfied!

Don't underestimate Swordfish

Swordfish has allowed me to decrease my time spent prospecting and increase my overall efficiency. I do not know how else I'd find the prospect's contact info without Swordfish!

PROS

My favourite feature is how smoothly it integrates with my browser, making it very easy to pull up Swordfish and quickly extract contact information. The speed and accuracy of the software is very impressive.

CONS

I don't have many negative comments, I rely heavily on Swordfish for my prospecting and it has worked wonders so far.
