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. 
Con's
  • 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.
