WINMO continues to be invaluable in terms of keeping up with accounts and advertising agencies. The daily WINMO Morning $ales Edge is one of the most comprehensive updates you can have arriving in your in-box. Seeing RFP's, the people moves ,and simply the deep dive you can do with contacts at the client and agency level, makes the ROI work. Last, but certainly not least, if you can't find it in your own searching, the WINMO Research team is great about getting back to you with answers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have been using WINMO for two years and there simply are no downsides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a bounty of information on prospects that are very helpful when pursuing opportunities and vetting those in front of me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Search is not as intuitive as I'd like. You do have to think about how and what you are looking for a few ways, and you have to have the exact, correct spelling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is a suite of services and research that may be of value to larger companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The size of database was much smaller than represented. We sampled searches and immediately reported the information we were seeking was not present. They dragged their feet saying they would discuss a pro-rated refund. In total we conducted 6 searches, found their service unusable, offered to come to terms on a reasonable fee. To date they have withheld $3,700 for a two day test and they refuse to address the issue with any professionalism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Winmo is extremely useful to find brands that you would never think of looking for. They have great tools like the Brand Sponsorship tool where I can look up a sports team and see what brands are sponsoring them. There are many tools that help me prospect for the contacts I'm looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes I find contacts that should be in Winmo, but aren't. Some of the brands/companies have very few contacts and I found it hard to soley rely on Winmo for prospecting. I also find that their list agency contacts aren't reliable with the brands that they work on. It would be nice to have the brands updated more frequently. They are also a very limited amount of contacts for many of the brands. Which is why Winmo is the perfect tool to use with the addition of other services like Sellercrowd or Linkedin.

Access to current contacts and realtime updates on things that are happening in the world. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Honestly because your team does all the heavy work and will track down contacts on request I don’t have any complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Search function has a wide selection of options for drilling down. Exports easily to HubSpot with relevant and necessary fields (brands, company name).
Updates via WinmoEdge are helpful and following both contacts and companies for updates and changes has been working excellent.
Every contact in the database is updated at least every 90 days (with promises for 2020 to lessen that time), so bounce rate on emails was very low (3-4%).
Winmo team is excellent doing custom research via the Custom Research function. Can find basically any company or contact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Drilling down by job title and function can be very cumbersome and is done after a Contact List is made, not during the search process. For example, eliminating all digital-focused marketing contacts vs OOH or print is tedious. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy access to a variety of contacts for agencies, brands and service providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downsize of suing Winmo, not all contacts are updated in realtime, with regards to current employment status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The number of verified high level contacts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes positions change and Winmo can be a little delayed updating contact information but there is a tool to report changes to help them keep up with change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The contacts - having access to that many contacts and insights about their communication style is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are using it in a less traditional way, and so I dont feel that we benefit from all the platform has to offer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to navigate within very large companies with complex marketing and sales structures to find the right people to connect with Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's impossible, but it's not always up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a tool that will guarantee you relevant information of potential customers through email alerts, will quickly notify your customers about changes and modifications made to campaigns and ads. Quickly lets customers know the cost of their advertising. Instead of inquiring for information on improving your sales, with Winmo you can quickly carry out a survey, speeding up your process and making known the future possibilities of executing your sale.

The only fault that I have found so far is that sometimes it shows the incorrect contact information, it would be excellent to have an option that allows us to first examine the information and verify that it is correct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the daily Winmo updates that give you the latest and greatest on brands you are working with or potentially will. It really helps me and my team to make our outreach relevant and build trust with clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The contact information for points of contact within an organization is frequently out of date (ex. the VP of Marketing is listed as the person who left a year ago). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Winmo helps me and the rest of the team find the right contacts at a company. It makes it easy to confirm the contact on LinkedIn by adding their LinkedIn profile to their Winmo profile. As well, their phone numbers are easy to find.
I love the addition of WinmoEdge to find new articles about prospects and clients in the space.
I have used other companies in the past that provide similar services, but Winmo has a much larger number of companies/contacts in their database. As well, the quality of their contacts and companies are great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The price of Winmo is definitely a large expense for a start-up. As well, previous companies will provide the service of putting together contact lists as a complementary service. The amount they charge per contact is a bit pricy compared to our old service
As well, some contacts are added without emails which wastes our number of downloads.
Lack of smaller companies information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Winmo not only helps me to keep a strong pulse on the business world, with features like WinmoEdge (which I look at every single morning), but more importantly, it helps me to find the right person at a company to connect with.
Going a step further, features like Crystal Insight allow me to view that individual’s personality traits and even provides me with advice on how to communicate with them to yield the highest rate of success. It is absolutely incredible.
I have used a number of different companies in the past claiming to provide similar services, but nothing has come close to the actual resources, accuracy and RESULTS of Winmo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
My company is a sponsor based company dedicated to donating gear to public high schools. Although I believe there is a lot of value in Winmo, as a small company it is a large expense and the money that we are allocating is coming from budget to run other programs and get more gear, in hopes of being able to attract more sponsors. It would be great if there were ways to apply for discounted rates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ppersonality insight provided on a profile arms you to prepare accordingly when meeting with them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The short trial period. I would have loved to have been able to check other companies that I work with to access the information that I know to be current. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Over the past several years, I have used Winmo to uncover the best decision makers for my work in corporate fundraising. Of all the research tools, I have used in my career I have found Winmo to be the most reliable and up-to-date on the best contact names within corporate organizations for me to connect with. I am pleased to share that on more than one occasion, I have secured funding from national and regional contacts discovered using Winmo that otherwise would not have been available to me. Additionally, I find the Winmo Talk feature one of the most useful industry group “chat” tools I have ever used. The Winmo team is always responsive when I need assistance or help and is incredibly mindful at managing my membership, reaching out regularly to check in.

Quite honestly - because I am such a loyal user, I dont really have much to complain about. Find the interface easy to use and the downloading of contacts is a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Winom is so easy to use, it truly allows a sales or marketing person to get to the heart of the matter, understand the granular data required for business development, and take action. The platform makes it so simple to build and export lists, making campaign building fast and problem free.

I wish Winmo included lower level employees in their lists, sometimes it feels like I am required to reach out to more senior members of ad ops or trafficking teams when I'm simply looking for a lower level contact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think the customer service and training has been great, making sure the whole team was onboarded and using the system correctly was so helpful. The actual usability of the platform as well is amazing - from the look and feel to the actual search & create a list function, to WinmoTalk & WinmoEdge, every tool has been beneficial to our team and myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only thing I dislike is that sometimes there are people missing, or titles/emails slightly wrong, etc. But I will say they're great about updating if you report something missing/wrong, and I'm sure it's not easy to keep the whole system up-to-date at all times.
