Data.com and LeadSpace are both providers of business and contact data, but they have key differences in terms of their data sources, features, and capabilities.

Data.com, formerly known as Jigsaw and now a part of Salesforce, offers a large database of business contact information. It relies on crowd-sourcing, where users contribute and verify data, to build its database. Data.com provides contact details, including phone numbers and email addresses, along with company information. It integrates seamlessly with Salesforce CRM, allowing users to access and update data directly within their CRM system. Data.com offers subscription-based pricing options.

LeadSpace, on the other hand, is a data enrichment and customer data platform that leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to provide comprehensive insights about target accounts and contacts. It uses a combination of data sources, including publicly available information, social media, and proprietary data, to build its extensive database. LeadSpace focuses on delivering data enrichment, segmentation, and lead scoring capabilities to help businesses identify and engage with their ideal customers. It offers a range of pricing plans tailored to different business needs.

2010. Salesforce goes into amoral crowdsourcing



Nowadays the confidentiality of personal information is not so important. Especially for sales guys, like Salesforce's management. Today, Salesforce has acquired Jigsaw, which TechCrunch's Mike Arrington at first called evil and then simply amoral. Jigsaw - is a huge (21 million) online database of contacts and companies, filled by crowdsourcing: users add contact information of other people (without their knowledge) usually from business cards. When the service appeared in 2006, it paid people $1 for each added contact. Then Jigsaw sell the access to contacts database to companies using cold calling (or spammers). And there was no way to remove your contacts from the service. ***
