## Crunchbase Reviews
  ### 1. Powerful, yet affordable

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Staffing and Recruiting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 09, 2018

**What do you like best about Crunchbase?**

Easy to use, powerful startups & tech company info at a decent price 

**What do you dislike about Crunchbase?**

Not a lot right now, considering the decent cost of an account

**Recommendations to others considering Crunchbase:**

Hope it stays cheap! $30 a month for a seat is worth the price for me.

**What problems is Crunchbase solving and how is that benefiting you?**

(Crunchbase Pro) 
I work in tech recruiting exclusively for startups, Crunchbase is a must have for finding company info and running spreadsheet reports. It's been especially useful since Linkedin recently took away the ability to search by company data (which I used to use a lot!)

Cost of an account is much more affordable than similar products I've demo'd like Pitchbook (although CB doesn't offer as much hard numbers as PB does, but that's relevant for my company).

They do not have an easy search for a few of the industries we are trying to do research on. We are trying to do more on residential services, but the wrong types of companies are coming up.
