ZoomInfo Troubleshooting

Problem: Search Returns Too Many Irrelevant Results

Cause: Your search filters are too broad or missing key criteria.

يصلح: Add more specific filters like company revenue range, employee count, and exclusion tags for companies you don’t want.

Problem: CRM Integration Not Syncing

Cause: Field mapping between ZoomInfo and your CRM is incomplete or incorrect.

يصلح: Go to Admin Portal, review field mappings, and re-authenticate your CRM connection. Test with a single contact export first.

Problem: Contact Email Bouncing

Cause: The contact may have changed roles or companies since the data was last verified.

يصلح: Use the “Last Verified” date filter to find recently verified contacts. Run NeverBounce verification before large email campaigns.

📌 ملحوظة: If none of these fix your issue, contact ZoomInfo support.
