Best Lead Database for Accurate and Comprehensive People Data

Which is the best lead database people are using? I've tried Apollo and felt data coverage was average. Tested A-leads and their data seemed to be 6 months out of date. I've used Clay 'Find people' which is good but seems to have limited coverage in comparison to other platforms

LinkedIn Sales Navigator is the source most all other datasets use. Apollo uses LinkedIn and is usually a few months old.

Use Crustdata for the closest tech that provides and api on top of LinkedIn data. You can't scrape LinkedIn sales navigator at scale.

Honestly most people I know don’t rely on one database anymore. They’ll pull initial lists from something like zoominfo or apollo then enrich and clean the data inside clay using multiple sources.
