Helps a lot in prospecting potential customers. Gives tons of information about my customers. Easy to check out what is going on in certain industry or customer group.

Best single tool for prospecting so far. Easy to list attributes that are important for you and start looking for good leads. Customer friendly user interface. Customer support has been great. Also does media tracking for your entire customer portfolio if you wish.

If you don't pay enough attention on search criteria you'll end up with lot of useless information as well. Some people at our company have struggled with finding some functionalities.

Ease of use is great to have but most important is really top quality leads Vainu has been able to provide. Definitely boosting our sales.

Configuring triggers the way I need can be a bit time consuming at first try.

If you sell to corporates, then Vainu might be right for you. If not, the exercise of trying to collect information is tedious and requires a lot of excel work. After a year of trying to make it work, we abandoned it and hired cheap labor abroad to collect data and validate it for us. For individual reps, having it alongside LinkedIn might be helpful. Limited markets - don't buy their new markets, its extremely limited.

We bought mainly because we sell to a market that's hard to identify (small gyms and studios). Being able to search by company name was probably the most beneficial part.

For a lot of data we received, it was just a collection of yellow page data. Pozo and dribble litter the results and Vainu offers no additional benefit here. My team got very frustrated with their data compared to other sources we have.

-- Efficiency in generating prospect lists -- Exploring new markets to sell to -- Gathering information about trends in target industries -- Relating to customers/prospects through data about their companies Vainu continues to improve on its database every day (they can track more than 100 million companies worldwide currently). They are a startup that customers are evolving alongside. I find that the platform has continued to improve in the months I've been using it -- as with any startup, change is going to be a part of the company. I've found that the changes they've made have improved my experiences as a user. Keep in mind: Vainu focuses on company information and it's not a database of contact details. However, they have a nice LinkedIn integration available for finding decision makers.

One of the best features of Vainu is its ease of use. As someone in the business development space, I want SaaS programs that allow me to dive right in and access the kinds of information I need. Vainu does just that. It is a creative solution that allows me to gather information on companies worldwide. Moreover, Vainu has a team committed to customer service and keeping customers happy. They have been there from demos and beyond, willing to answer any questions and train me along the way. If you're looking for a tool to help you start really prospecting and figuring who may need your product or service, Vainu is the way to go.

Vainu was the way I would start every business day. Takes minutes to find ideal prospect and the resources to craft the perfect outreach to them.

Vainu is extremely easy to use... and makes prospecting Fun. This solution gives you the tools and information to know EVERYTHING you could possibly need about your future customers.

While a great tool, the US Database can use a little work. The Nordic Databases are their bread & butter... wow they know it all about those organizations
