"Great data source for people/companies"

4/5

What do you like best about People Data Labs?

The API is well documented and relatively easy to use. You can use elastic search queries to do finely tuned searches. Also, their upcoming Company Insights endpoint will be a game-changer in data analysis of a companies' health and growth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about People Data Labs?

There are some data quality issues. For example, the data seems to trust LinkedIn a bit much. I have found cases in which random LinkedIn profiles would say they are the company's CEO, but that doesn't match public sources. Also, if a person is not on LinkedIn, they will not show up in search results or be counted towards a companies' employee total. Also, there is no GUI for querying the data, just a GUI for building the query string. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is People Data Labs solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using People Data Labs in 3 use cases:

1. To source companies that have great potential to be invested.

2. Do due diligence on a company by analyzing the turnover rate of their executive officers.

3. Find great executives who have led their companies through an IPO or the growth of a team to reach out to them for other career opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
