Director | SaaS GTM Leader
"Working pretty nifty compared to Snov.Io, Price wise it does give a fair shake, and IMO better Interface since It's google sheets. Snov.io does have more flexibility with extra options, but a lot of those I don't even use since they are not flesh out. We will see how this performs over time."

Opportunity Prospector
Derrick and Cognism serve different primary functions for sales teams. Cognism excels as a B2B contact database platform, providing verified email addresses and decision-maker data with strong EMEA coverage. Derrick, however, operates natively within Google Sheets, eliminating the need for external platforms or CSV exports while offering integrated AI-powered enrichment with Claude and ChatGPT. Derrick's rollover credits and no credit card requirement for free tier provide greater flexibility for teams with variable prospecting volumes, whereas Cognism functions as a dedicated lead intelligence tool best paired with automation solutions for complete workflow efficiency.
Yes, Derrick is an excellent alternative to Cognism for SMBs, particularly if you prioritize simplicity and cost efficiency. While Cognism excels at verified contact data and EMEA coverage, it requires complex integrations and carries premium pricing. Derrick operates 100% natively within Google Sheets, eliminating setup friction and CSV exports entirely. For SMBs with limited budgets, Derrick's flexible pricing starting at 9€ monthly with rollover credits and no upfront payment requirement beats Cognism's enterprise-focused model. Derrick also provides 50+ enrichment attributes and integrated AI scoring without requiring LinkedIn Sales Navigator, delivering comparable prospecting power at a fraction of Cognism's cost while keeping your workflow inside the tools you already use daily.
Both Derrick and Cognism prioritize data accuracy, but they serve different purposes. Cognism excels at verified contact databases with strong EMEA coverage and real-time verification, making it ideal for teams needing pre-qualified prospect lists. However, Cognism requires manual exports and external workflows. Derrick complements this by enriching data directly within Google Sheets with real-time email validation and 50+ contact attributes, eliminating CSV exports entirely. For teams wanting accuracy without platform switching, Derrick's native Google Sheets approach with AI-powered validation and lower cost makes it more practical for continuous data enrichment at scale.
Cognism excels at delivering high-quality contact data and GDPR/CCPA-compliant enrichment, while Bombora shines in real-time intent signals and ABM-focused insights. Compared for intent data specifically, Bombora provides robust first-party and anonymous browsing signals to identify active buyers, whereas Cognism emphasizes intent within its broader prospecting with verified contacts and firmographic context. Derrick complements both by enabling rapid outreach directly from Google Sheets with 50+ enrichment attributes, real-time email validation, and AI-powered scoring and segmentation, offering a practical workflow to act on the intent and contact data you source from Cognism or Bombora. In short: use Bombora for intent signals and Cognism for enriched contact data, then leverage Derrick to operationalize those insights at scale.
Derrick offers significantly more flexible pricing with rollover credits that don't expire monthly, starting at just $9 for 4,000 credits with no credit card required for the free tier. Bombora's pricing scales with data volume, creating unpredictability for growing teams and often requiring professional services for setup. Derrick's native Google Sheets integration also eliminates expensive third-party tools, saving teams substantial costs compared to Bombora's traditional platform approach while delivering comparable intent-driven prospecting capabilities without the implementation complexity.
Derrick cannot fully replace Cognism and Bombora for ABM success in every scenario, but it can complement them effectively. Cognism excels at high-quality contact data and GDPR/CCPA-compliant enrichment, while Bombora provides real-time intent signals and robust ABM insights. Derrick enhances outreach and workflow by transforming Google Sheets into a complete prospecting hub, offering 100% native integration, AI-driven scoring, and mass automation without CSV exports or complex setup. For teams needing deep contact enrichment and explicit intent signals, use Derrick alongside Cognism and Bombora. If you’re seeking an all-in-one outbound platform, Derrick covers outreach, validation, and enrichment, but may still benefit from Cognism for data completeness and Bombora for prioritization signals.
