198 more services for your competitor research

198 additions bring anvendor's coverage to 900+ services, including Shopify, Mailchimp, Klaviyo, GitLab Pages, LinkedIn Company Pages and Squarespace.

Six brands in the expanded catalogue. The GitLab and LinkedIn additions cover GitLab Pages and LinkedIn Company Pages.

Your next prospect may already use a service you compete with. We've expanded anvendor's coverage by 198 services: 189 brand-new catalogue entries and 9 previously unavailable services that are now covered. The additions give you more starting points for finding relevant companies and researching accounts before a sales conversation.

The expansion spans commerce, marketing, website tools, cloud infrastructure and other business services. Here are six familiar names, all new to the catalogue:

ServiceWhat companies use it for
ShopifyOnline stores and commerce
MailchimpMarketing campaigns and customer communications
KlaviyoCustomer messaging and marketing automation
GitLab PagesPublishing static websites
LinkedIn Company PagesCompany profiles and a professional brand presence
SquarespaceWebsite building and online selling

Product scope matters. The GitLab addition covers GitLab Pages, while the LinkedIn addition covers Company Pages. A finding for either does not establish paid GitLab seats, LinkedIn advertising or a Sales Navigator subscription. Use the service named in the result when deciding whether an account fits your offer.

Turn a competitor into an account shortlist

If you sell an alternative to one of these services, start with that competitor in Search leads. Discover companies worth researching, then review the available findings before deciding which accounts to approach. Consider company size, location and your own customer profile alongside the service finding. You can also analyze a company you already know to research its SaaS and business services.

A relevant service is the start of a question. For a challenger, it helps identify the category an account already knows. Review the result date, look at the company's needs and prepare a specific question about where your alternative might fit. A company name on a list is not yet a qualified opportunity.

Pricing and departments add context

We reviewed vendor pricing and the departments each service serves as part of the expansion. Some products charge per user; others charge for contacts, traffic or resources. Plans and department applicability help put a finding in context, but they do not reveal which plan a company bought. Where the available information cannot support a spend estimate, the figure can remain blank.

Available adoption and annual spend figures are estimates, not invoices or audited license counts. Published rates can differ from a negotiated contract, and a finding can relate to free use. Use these figures to prioritize account research and prepare questions rather than assume a prospect's budget.

Keep the limits in view

A company-service finding gives you a reason to research an account. It does not establish current activity, a paid contract, dissatisfaction or buying intent. Coverage varies by service and company. A missing service in a result does not prove non-use. Validate the commercial opportunity with the prospect.
