Does anyone have a favorite tool for gathering lists of companies in a given industry in a given geography? I tried out Data Axle through the platform and thought it was nice, but curious if anyone has experience with other tools they like.

Overall I really liked my experience. Was really just looking for input to see if there was anything else out there. Here is the bit of feedback I do have from my limited time using it.
I noticed minor data reliability. For instance I had a report that listed a major public company name at a small private company address. However, I recognize this is par for the course with these type of data tools.
From a product perspective the search making you restart each time instead of saving when you submit is a bit frustrating.

I'm curious what you like and don't like about our current arrangement. They have 17,791,372 company records for the US and Canada, of which about 4 million of them have emails.
