Best for company data from Dun & Bradstreet
D&B Hoovers is sales intelligence built on Dun & Bradstreet business data, with buying signals, account prioritization and a CRM connection. But no price is shown, only a trial request and a phone number, and the page doesn't say how many contacts or companies it covers.
Who D&B Hoovers is for
- Fits if you're an enterprise team that already trusts D&B data
- Works for account prioritization on top of company records
Who D&B Hoovers is not for
- Skip it if you want a price, because the page offers only a trial request and a phone number
- Not for you if you want contact counts, as none are given
- Watch out: the site's home page returned a bot check, so only the product page was read
- Watch out: plans, seats and credit limits aren't listed anywhere we read
Why D&B Hoovers gets a 1.8
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published. With nothing on record it sits in the middle of lead-finding tools, which start at $33.25 for the cheaper quarter.
- DFree plan and trialA free trial on request, with no length or terms stated. No free plan.
- CFeaturesCompany and contact data, buying signals, account scoring, AI workflows and a CRM link. No coverage counts or credit limits are given.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. Plans, seats and credits aren't shown, so expect a sales process.
- CPlatforms and integrationsWeb only, with one integration listed besides an MCP connection.
What these grades rest on. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Dun & Bradstreet's own pages on 12 November 2026. The vendor's page would not load for us when we checked, so we carried on from the listing. Not based on using the product, and shorter than our full reviews. How we review and grade.

Keep D&B Hoovers, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace D&B Hoovers you would be making a library of papers and sources to search. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 54 of the 72 other lead and email finders grade higher.
What you could not
- A library of papers and sources to search.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
What this rests on. D&B Hoovers’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
