Alex W.

Account Manager

“Liked the time saved finding new contacts at existing customers. Found that an email address or phone number is occasionally outdated.”

Melissa A.

Sales Operations

“Liked the reliable, accurate data that cut verification time. Found the platform overwhelming at first, though onboarding help made it easier.”

Derek S.

CMO

“Liked the working CRM integration, though data was good only about half the time. Found payments and renewals hard to manage after an unwanted auto-renewal.”

Yeray C.

Director of Technology

“Liked the strong B2B data in Europe, quick learning, and GDPR compliance. Found bulk exports slow and credits running out fast.”

Cognism integrations

Cognism integrates with the sales and marketing tools prospecting teams rely on. Native CRM integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, and Pipedrive let users export contacts, enrich existing records, and keep account data current. Sales engagement integrations with Outreach and Salesloft move prospects straight into sequences without manual uploads. The Cognism Chrome extension works on LinkedIn, including Sales Navigator, and on company websites to reveal emails and phone numbers in context. Zapier connects Cognism to other apps, and an API supports custom enrichment and internal tools. Data can also be exported to CSV for use in spreadsheets, marketing automation platforms, and ad audience lists.
