Lead Forensics data was more accurate and in-depth. I pay more for it but get a larger volume of leads. I also find the contacts to be better too. I did a test between the two and the accountant manager was less salesy and helped me learn the product and its benefits.
LF consistently identifies more companies than any tool we have used. We run comparisons about twice a year just to see if there is a better tool, haven't found one in 7 years.
Lead Forensics offers more detailed insights to the customers or potential customers. It also notifies me of website traffic; we don't have another tool that is better then Lead Forensics. I do like Zoom--it has a lot more contact info and allows you to filter the results to …
Lead Forensics is a leader on its side, but the other platforms can do more tracking and give you more details about the visits and can target to an exact person. They are all great tools and each one has its [own] special ability to help you close more deals.
A number of the Lead Forensics features are incorporated with the SharpSpring platform. While Lead Forensics does seem to have a more elevated level of detail with the records, if you are already using a tracking system, this duplication in functionality may not be worth the …
We used to use Visual Visitor. This would give us an email every time someone visited our website. This would give all the information like Lead Forensics does but in a smaller quantity. It used to not integrate with WIX but now it does. We selected Lead Forensics because we …
Lead Forensics is the best as far as I can tell, but choices that are a fraction of the cost come pretty close. Some places like ThomasNet even throw this functionality in for free now. I guess it's a question of if you view this type of intelligence as a luxury or essential.
Lead Forensics gives you much more detail. You can actually see the company names of people visiting your website. However, the obvious downside is that it costs money. For us, we use Google Analytics on an on-going basis, and Lead Forensics was a nice tool to have for a short …
If you want to understand if the things you're doing in the market place are improving your audience reach, then Lead Forensics is a great tool. It's all very well to network, email, win awards and so on, but you will want to address any inconsistency in how effective outreach activities are. Lead Forensics is great for this.
The menu could be improved, maybe by giving the chance of a "basic" and an "expert" menu.
The instructions are good and exhaustive but they might be improved.
The most difficult part of Lead Forensics is how some colleagues will use it and - should they not understand - they won't. There should be a way to interest even the less technological colleagues that this tool is for their best.
The tool takes a bit to learn and you go through an onboarding to get a better understanding. Once you go through that, the tool is very user friendly and a piece of cake to use - anyone can go through it, no IT skills need to run and manage their platform.
While we have not had a lot of issues, the Lead Forensics team has been helpful in addressing them. The software is fairly intuitive, and issues rarely arise. This could also be from a lack of use on our part, but we have not had a great deal of interaction with the customer support team.

So far we are working on generating an ROI. We did not accurately estimate the time and processes needed to manage the software and processes.
It is interesting to see which companies are engaging in our site that we did not know about, so there is a knowledge ROI there. Just need to figure out better execution to turn it into revenue.
