Any experience with Cognism?

Hey all, 

Wanted to ask if anyone has ever used Cognism for prospecting in the past to pull contact phone #'s 

I currently am forced to use Cognism due to my Org. I absolutely despise it due to the shit storm of bad numbers, but my sales enablement refuses to change it. 

curious if anyone else has had a similar experience? 

even better if you have switched away from cognism and noticed higher connect rates/meetings booked. 

please help me

Never heard of it...

Doesn't sound good though.

Do you have the budget for ZoomInfo? Or Apollo?

It’s awful UK based tool similar to Zoominfo. We are pushing our tools evaluator to go with Zoominfo right now. Never heard of Apollo, how does it match up to Zoominfo?

Apollo.io is not bad, I think ZI is probably the gold standard but it's DAMN expensive.

Definitely cheaper and seems pretty decent

Thanks for sharing with me. The price of ZI is my Org’s main pushback. Will raise this with them. Thank you 🙏🏻

Use it, second rate zoominfo. Max export 25 at a time. Filters and UI not as good as zoominfo.

Pros: Gives different info than zoominfo

Best used in conjunction with other data tools
