ITS Profiles – Thank You.
Today I will be reporting on my subscription to the ITS Profiles database service. Up until six months ago my company was a subscriber to iprofile. We were very please with iprofile but had noticed that in recent months they appeared to have lost their focus and were starting to overlap with the content we got with our subscription to Hoovers. We had talked to ITS Profiles in the past and were impressed with the depth that their org charts provided on Fortune 500 IT departments so, when our subscription was up, we switched over. It has only been six months and, with the data provided to us by ITS Profiles , we have generated more interest in our product than we ever did with any of our other data providers. For us, this has been one of those rare occasions when both sales and marketing agreed on what we should purchase. It seems as we will only continue to grow our sales as ITS Profiles updates their database every quarter and sends us an email every month with all the org charts that have “undergone major updates”.

Have you ever tried CRUSH Reports? iProfile’s CEO, VP of Sales and VP of Marketing have all left the company within the past month, so I’m not sure how liable they currently are.
Check out a sample CRUSH Report here:

They are similar to iProfile, except their reports contain far more IT info and have much more accurate and updated data.
A member of my team showed me a sample of the CRUSH product and found that the reporting information was good but that they lacked the contact detail of a DiscoverOrg or ITSprofiles. We also found that OrgMaps provided similar reporting information, but also had detailed contact information and only made us purchase one report as opposed to several or all.
