"Quality data, including mobile numbers"
What do you like best about Cognism?

The landscape of data platform software is vast and lets face it, they all offer the same stuff that we all expect as a minimum these days (Chrome extension, LinkedIn interoperability etc) What I like about Cognism is: Its wider interoperability and integration with a huge amount of CRM systems, completely automating the dreaded task of pulling data from platform to CRM. Its data quality! Without a doubt, the best resource for quality data in the UK, particularly for mobile numbers. CS - Our account manager Nate is always available to help answer any queries.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

We have found problems with email campaigns in the past, however we work in an industry which is notoriously difficult for email addresses so this is not a problem that is unique to Cognism and I expect other industries would not suffer this issue.

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

It saves me from having to spend hours trying to locate contact data for prospects. I was spending 1 week of each month on this prior to Cog, now I spend less than 1 day per month.

"Cognism is exactly what we've been looking for"
What do you like best about Cognism?

For our BDR Team of 12, We use Cognism to Search for companies inspecific industries and regions. I like that I can save a list of businesses and then export them into another CRM we use for outreach. Cognism also has an enrichment feature that we utilize to fill in the gaps for lead information.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

It can be a litle confusing when going from a Contact Search, to Company Search and then saving to a list only to then enrich the content. I wish it was automatic when we saved to a list. Not a huge deal though

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

It's solving our problem of not being able to find verified email addresses and phone numbers. It Eliminates the BDR's need to find a lead. All we ask from our BDR's is to prospect each lead and touch each lead 8 times.

"My day to day job is so much easier, and quicker."
What do you like best about Cognism?

The most useful about Cognism is the ability to get the rights contacts and companies with accurate data, especially for Europe, compared to their US competitor who delivers only average and inaccuratedata. Their integration with prospecting and sales software makes contacts upload to sequences very quickly. It is like a kid's game!

What do you dislike about Cognism?

There is not much I dislike about Cognism. I have been doing this job for years, and this software makes my life a lot easier.

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

Finding companies in specific industries and contacts with accurate data, uploading contact to prospecting CRM quickly.

"Great product that gives you everything you need"
What do you like best about Cognism?

It really is idiot-proof. Searches can be defined, refined, saved, and integrated into a CRM effortlessly allowing sales teams to get on with the job of selling.

What do you dislike about Cognism?

Not much to be honest. I've asked their dev team for some changes and they seem to be in flight so we'll wait further for those amendments. So let's see but their CS has been top notch

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

Getting us in front of decision-makers in a quick and timely manner, and allowing us multiple levels of entry into organisations that we wish to interact with.
