"Effective contact/account searches with relevant insights and contact info"
What do you like best about Cognism?

I probably use the contact information provisions the most. I like how the information pops up along side Sales Nav in a way that is presented clearly and cleanly.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

I think there are lots of features within the actual platform for finding accounts to prospect, and I don't really know how to use them properly. So nothing wrong with the platform, I'd just like to learn how to use it better.

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

Prospecting. It provides account information (jurisdiction, industry, CRM included) in a clear way and connects relevant leads from companies to your account search to make it easier to rach out to people.

"Not just a Sales Insights Provider"
What do you like best about Cognism?

Cognism as a Sales Tool provides invaluable access to company and prospect data, however, what is truly valuable is the value added services that Cognism provide. Cognism provide regular teach-in sessions and are able to provide ad-hoc data enrichment services, which enable us to apply Cognism's expertise across our entire Sales Organisation.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

It would be beneficial for future development if we were able to see assess indivudual sales person usage of the tool directly, without needing to reach out to the Account Management team to provide this data; it would allow us to plan tailored training or assess RoI on the fly.

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cognism provides business insights for our inside sales team but additionally offers regular teach-in webinars on cold calling, which is invaluable for employees to gain new confidence and skills.

"Game changer"
What do you like best about Cognism?

It's a game changer, at my previous roles we only used Lusha and SalesNav, but in my new role I was introduced to cognism and I don't think I can ever go back into a world workout cognism

What do you dislike about Cognism?

It's amazing for European companies, but doesn't always have the best info for American contacts, but still very useful, works very well with zoominfo

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

Allows me to find numbers and data that I might previously not have found , and the more data the better!

"Cognism offered very easy, efficient and interoperable tools."
What do you like best about Cognism?

The simplicity of the platform, it is very self-explanatory and easy to use. It is visually appealing and the results of using its tools are above expected. The customer service is exceptional, the personal contact and help provided by the team is flawless and very effective.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

Honestly, very few things to say in this sense. Some features could be clearer or made explicit; for example: when trying to contact a certain group of people and want to divide it in different batches in order to contact one person at a time per company. It would be nice to understand that different lists would exclude previously contacted persons.

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not using Cognism long enough to be able to respond adequately but from what I understood in a meeting with cognism's customer serviceis that new features lately have been able to solve previously flagged problems and added new features specially to make it user-friendly. Not many platforms are that easy to use and/or offer help with navigating into it that fast and efficiently.

"Best Sales Tool In The Game!"
What do you like best about Cognism?

Diamond verification has really improved the quality of my prospecting and that of my teams - pick-up rates are through the roof, as are conversions. The best tool on the market for gathering data of potential customers. Have used ZoomInfo, Lusha, and neither compare. The fact that you can request diamond verification of a contact means you can focus on reaching out to others while Cognism does the hard work of chasing down and verifying your key prospects.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

Not a lot to dislike, UI and UX is very good. Some issues with our integration to CRM however was a problem on our side, the support team at Cognism was very quick to rectify and resolve this.

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

Giving us contact details for C Suite, Heads of Departments, Managers, and team members for some of the largest enterprises in the world. Allowing us to have the opportunity to discuss our product and build relationships with them without being aired a thousand times.

"Great data and easy integration"
What do you like best about Cognism?

the great data, reliable phone numbers and emails. The easy integration makes prospecting easy, allowing me to quickly and smoothly get prospects into my outreach account.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

Sometimes it doesn't allow me to add prospects in as it says they are duplicates even if they are not duplicates in the outreach system which can be frustrating but doesn't outweigh the good aspects cognism adds to my prospecting.

What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows me to find numbers and emails that I normally wouldn't be able to. I can prospect much more quickly now which has really helped to free up more time for reaching out to prospects.
