"A game changer for private market research"

4/5

What do you like best about PitchBook?

I really like the data that PitchBook has from private markets. Our detailed financials, market analysis and company profiles allow us to make quick investment decisions based on a straight up view of our potential investments. With it integration with Excel we can easily export and analyze datas in excel and thereby save our time in generating reports. Secondly, it provides us with research tools such as tracking industry trends and competitors as well as giving our team an edge on how our products can sit on the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PitchBook?

A limitation to PitchBook is the ability of the platform to take time to retrieve data especially when working with a larger data set. This lag is really inconvenient when we’re urgently in peril of needed data during the meetings or our presentations. Still, another prospect is that some fields may contain stale information or lack certain data altogether which is why we have to check with third parties occasionally. These are wrong hiccups, which slow our productivity and create more steps to follow in any research we are undertaking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PitchBook solving and how is that benefiting you?

Through centralizing a boom of private market data, PitchBook has tremendously improved how we research investments. In the past we would spend hours trying to put together information from many different places, but now we can get financials, valuations, and trends in one place fast. It saves time for our team and it helps us make better decisions. In addition, the platform’s analytics tools give us important information, allowing us to examine risk better and make smarter investing decisions with resultant better client outcomes.

"Pitchbook is a unique resource providing useful up-to-date information ."

5/5

What do you like best about PitchBook?

Firstly - the support is terrific.

Up-to-Date information

Ability to sort the database in multiple ways

Biographies that are searchable

Contact information!

Queries easily saved and information downloaded

This database has uses beyond pitches and deals Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PitchBook?

Companies have to be assured that the benefits of licenses exceed the cost!

New users need real examples that are meaningful when trained - they only need to ask! I think this would result in more frequent use and intergration into every day use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PitchBook solving and how is that benefiting you?

An unusual engagement, and not how I generally employ Pitchbook but have had success, in identifying potential Board members for a non-profit. Candidates must reside/work in particular states and specific industries and will be additive in expanding and supporting the mission of the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best database for startup scouting"

5/5

What do you like best about PitchBook?

PitchBook’s data coverage on startups and venture-backed firms is the best overall among all solutions on the market and I would know, since I have access to many of them as a research manager that does startup scouting and technology research for a large consulting firm.

One huge advantage is the robust search functionality covering the relatively detailed company descriptions and extracted keywords as well as the classification of firms into industries, verticals and emerging spaces. This combined with the data on investors, deals, patents/clinical trials, people and related reports makes the tool very useful for screenings.

The interface is so user-friendly, fast and easy to navigate that I even use it for searches where other providers may have deeper datasets (e.g. LSEG or mergermarket for M&A deals). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PitchBook?

Even though the database is best in class for my specific use case, there are some things that could be improved on or useful features that could be added:

- There should be a detailed taxonomy for firms within software and SaaS (this also applies to some other categories, but is most acute within software), so screenings could also be conducted within more granular spaces (see for example the G2 categories). PitchBook analysts could also rate the firms in the way that tech research firms like Gartner do it.

- There are some features that seem to have been neglegted or could be far more useful if improved, incl. Signals (more details would be better, such as app downloads and breakdown by country), information on customers/references, partners, suppliers and the tech stack of companies, Market Size Estimates Search (not very useful; if PitchBook analysts could model and estimate all PitchBook industries, verticals and emerging spaces that would be great!), Market Maps (in this form not visually appealing and cannot be used for slide decks).

- More estimated revenue numbers and revenue forecasts as well as estimated valuations would make screenings and comparables with financials far more practical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PitchBook solving and how is that benefiting you?

PitchBook is my primary source for startup scouting and VC/PE transactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best VC / PE / M&A intelligence tools available in the market"

5/5

What do you like best about PitchBook?

Pitchbooks has the most comprehensive data on global Companies, VCs, PEs, and fundraise / M&A / IPO deals. It's very easy to generate screeners, perform sector scans, find other relevant data on the platform. it also has built-in alerts / watchlist functionality which I find very useful to track companies of interest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PitchBook?

Given the amount of data they have on their platform, at times ,the tagging of companies w/r/t their industry / service line is a bit different from what one would expect it to be. But more often than not, it is on point. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PitchBook solving and how is that benefiting you?

Pitchbook is helping me keep track of our M&A pipeline by providing important intel in a very timely and intuitive manner. I use the platform very extensively to learn more about what our potential target companies are up to, as well as, which PE/VCs are active in our industry. This has helped a lot in my day-to-day work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
