I love Swordfish. It always provides accurate information on LI profiles and applies to other platforms as well! Sometiems it gets home phone numbers of candidates I wanna speak with, which are helpful for leaving messages or gives me an email I can reach out to if we have no contact info. It has made the process of getting some people on the phone much quicker, which turns into more revenue for our company

I utilize Swordfish every day as part of my sales reach-out to new clients and buyers. Without this tool, my job would be more difficult, and I couldn't contact my prospects at the rate I currently do.

Swordfish Likes & Dislikes

Like

I like the accuracy of the information, the ease of the web overlay and the accuracy ratings that swordfish provides on contact information.

Like

The LinkedIn/Sales Navigator plug-in makes my outreach efficient when cold calling and needing to find an accurate phone number or email.

Like

Very quick to return any information if available Available ability to copy phone and email addresses allows for quick reach Ability to let Swordfish know if the information is valid allows for the correction of future reach outs and better efficiency.

Dislike

The overlay constantly expands and unexpands as I'm using it on new pages to where I end up hiding it differently

Dislike

The deep search option often yields no additional information. There is no account information to provide insight into buying intentions or an org chart.

Dislike

I have had to re-install the app a number of times, I think these issues were due to updates to internal Swordfish releases and that was frustrating. I do wish that the tab was moveable and it gets in the way a bit.
