What do you like best about Lightcast Gazelle?
I have used so many software programs through the years, but none of them are like Gazelle. This is a very comprehensive software platform that had more data points and functionality for business intelligence that I have seen. Whats more impressive than that is how easy the software is to use. Typically these software programs with high functionality are very complex to use and have a bad UX. 90% of the software is self explanatory and there were only a few advanced reporting and search features that I hadn't already figured out by our software training day with a Gazelle trainer.

What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
I do have a recommendation but this is VERY granular and into the fine print of the software. Such effort was put into the mapping function of the platform to search for businesses by geographic location. I am a US customer, so the information is drilled down to the County level filtering. However, in that master list of businesses within the county you can sort the list by ALPHA but you cannot isolate them by CITY! It was frustrating. I mean its 99.9% there! Just add a final sort layer once your in the county to sort by city. That is important to us local gov't people, to be able to look at the business info of those located within our city. You can still see the list, but there is also no "jump to" page so I had to click my way through 75 pages to get to the list that sorted them by city. Its SOOOO close. Like I said the info is there, just need a final layer to sort with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lightcast Gazelle?
The customer service is outstanding. Staff are easy to contact, great webinars, and on-target newsletters. Great search aids to allow fresh looks at the data. New ways to present data with Trade Show exhibitor information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
Because Gazelle uses AI to scrape online sites, some information must be validated by the user. However, I prefer this 'cast a wide net' approach to a more limited amount of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lightcast Gazelle?
Very helpful tool for economic development agencies and innovation hubs to discover what companies are expanding and access to some linked key features (funding, contacts, etc). After a benchmark analysis among several providers, we agreed that Gazelle was the more complete and user friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
Although very well made, the algorithm has its limits, thus sometimes the Gscore is not updated. Unfortunately, after GDPR implementation in the EU, we are unable to use the contact emails present on the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lightcast Gazelle?
We have been delighted with Gazelle's AI lead generation tool and customer service. Whenever we’ve had questions about events they do not have in their database, they’ve responded swiftly (often with new information). The trade show feature has proven to be more valuable than we thought. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
We wish Gazelle were a little more comprehensive in providing updated and current contacts (especially email addresses) for crucial executives of organizations we research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
HAT Query geocoding doesn't facilitate county-based searches as reliably as it does for state level. In my experience, of course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lightcast Gazelle?
The filters are super helpful. I like that you can research companies through different methods (maps, industries, etc.) The featured lists are also handy if you want to target a specific type of company. I use it for prospection and have been super happy with the quality of the details provided (contact details included). The support is also highly reactive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike about Lightcast Gazelle?
I would like to see more trade shows or company information on British companies (I mainly work on the UK market), but the support told me they are working on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
