5.10.2018 Seekout Trial Notes
Pro's
- the big advantage is the diversity option within the public search option.
- many people are finding candidates from GitHub that could not be found previously. since the start of the trial has had 3-4 submits. both technical and sales roles.
- seems to be very easy to use. people love the usability of the product.
- the project portion is great as you can export out a full excel content list.
- they are getting immediate support as they have questions from the support feature in the tool.
- would be nice for a email content option. (have been advised that drip campaign and email feature is in process for deployment)
- would be nice to have a Canadian / European database for the insights tab.
