RP Ryan P. Business Development Representative (Mid-Market) 2/3/2026 "Effective for Prospecting, Needs Better Data Quality" 4/5 What do you like best about Cognism? I use Cognism for my outbound new business prospecting to find new decision makers and new contact details. It helps me build lists and map out accounts quickly for outreach. I like the fact that you can hunt new personas and I'd say 70/80% of the data is accurate. I also find it easy to use for the end user and it's been easy to use since I started. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Cognism? I feel like there is a lot of contacts on there that even under verified emails and mobiles, we get bounce backs or there is a lack of good mobiles. I've used sites such as Apollo to compare and they have a better email. Perhaps a refresh of the data? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Cognism solving and how is that benefiting you? I use Cognism for prospecting to find decision makers and contact details.
