François M.

Marketing Manager

Cons

“The high pricing levels are not good value since our international B2B database is expanding, and customer service or specific client service is much too slow when we require to make difficult security permissions to our regional salespeople.”
CA

Christopher A.

Commercial Director

“When I attempted to change my billing from annual to monthly for the same plan, the company claimed it had migrated my account from an old model to a new one and that it would now cost more than 7 times what I was paying previously because I was "downgrading."”
KS

Kathryn S.

Owner

“We need this for use cases like authorised reps, next of [sensitive content hidden], and broker–client relationships, and it’s frustrating that a CRM level product doesn’t support it.”
DT

Dan T.

Cons

“The pricing model didn't make sense for our growing company, as you pay for all the contacts in your account, regardless of if they're active or not.”
NM

Noga M.

VP, Marketing

“It can be difficult to search for specific emails as the UI is not the most intuitive, especially for new users.”
PP
