“This year we received funding with growth plans to hire 20 SDRs across our German, Belgium, UK and Ireland offices. In sales, we are measured on time to target. Therefore, it’s unscalable to hire 20 SDRs and not supply them with the best technology to support their roles. We can save two first-time hires if we invest in the right tools. Having a streamlined technology like Cognism is critical to meeting our sales goals.”
“I’ve increased my number of prospect meetings by 200% compared to last quarter. This is because Cognism allows me to spend less time searching for contact details, freeing up more time for quality prospecting and connecting with the right leads.”
"Good technology with great people behind the scenes!"
“The ROI is there. We needed this to win approximately two contracts for Cognism to pay for itself. It brought in six or seven contracts last year, so it’s more than worth it!”
“If I had any advice for those not using Cognism, it’d be to get it. It will save you hours every day, and without a doubt, you will be able to speak to more people.”
"We no longer need several days and numerous sources to research and analyse potential. Thanks to the specific contacts provided by Cognism in HubSpot, we now have the opportunity to implement ideas directly."
“I’m inundated with members of the team asking me if they can have a licence, so we are considering getting some more. They’re eager for licences because it helps with lead sourcing, which undoubtedly contributes to the team’s morale and their ability to achieve targets.”
“It saves us so much time and money. In my opinion, having the contacts and data to begin with, and then engaging with them through various marketing activities, is much easier than trying to acquire that data through those marketing activities.”
“I was the first to adopt Cognism, but its simple UI made adoption easy, even with minimal training. Unlike Apollo.ai, which was complex and unintuitive, Cognism was straightforward to learn and teach to the team.”
“Manually creating a contact in Hubspot would take us a couple of minutes, then you have to check the information using another app, adding 30 seconds. So that’s 2.5 minutes per contact, and we’re pulling around 250 contacts weekly. That’s around 10 hours of just pulling in contacts for the Business Development Executive! With Cognism, these are done with a click. I don’t think any company would argue that that isn’t a good investment.”
“We looked at ZoomInfo and Lusha, but Cognism was definitely more interesting to us. Its biggest selling point was that it felt like a marriage of all the key features we needed, so we wouldn’t need to use ZoomInfo, plus add-ons or Lusha.”
“Because of Cognism’s data accuracy and the amount and availability of data on the platform, we were able to access and identify the right people to speak to in that market. That then turned into a positive business conversation, which then turned into closed won revenue. Cognism directly contributed to building our pipeline and facilitating deal closures.”
“Intent allows you to discover new accounts, identify new decision-makers, and track job changes. This capability lets you stay current with the market you’re concentrating on and actively engage in. Cognism makes your prospecting a lot more timely.”
"With Cognism, our data accuracy has improved massively. We now have a 50% global mobile fill rate - in some regions up to 80% - and 80% accurate email coverage. That’s a huge step up from where we were before.”
"We tested everything available on the market, including Lusha, Apollo and ZoomInfo. We ran a pilot and proved that Cognism’s data was stronger than other tools we evaluated, particularly in EMEA.”
