What is Jigsaw?
Jigsaw is an online business directory of companies and business professionals that is built, maintained and accessed by a worldwide community of more than 600,000 subscribers. A comprehensive database allows members to exchange and share the business information of 10.4 million contacts from over 1.5 million companies.
Headquartered in San Mateo, CA, Jigsaw Data Corporation was founded on January 1, 2004 by veteran sales executives Jim Fowler and Garth Moulton and is ventured funded by El Dorado Ventures, Norwest Venture Partners and Austin Ventures.
While not the only player in the burgeoning business database game, Jigsaw states that utilizing a user-generated database that's continually updated by its members and offers timely and accurate contacts while leveraging Web 2.0 technology makes the company unique. Jigsaw has been called "the world's largest roledex" by Inc Magazine
'''Features'''
As of July 2008, Jigsaw members have had access to 10.4 million contacts from 1.5 million companies worldwide. Jigsaw's contacts act as a virtual business card, offering name, title, postal and email addresses and phone numbers for individual contacts.
Corporate searches offer company information like address, website and phone numbers. Users can also search for companies by industry and ticker, number of employees, and by Fortune 500 or 1000 ranking. It also offers multiple-level contacts within each company, including hard-to-find upper level contacts. Similarly, Jigsaw members can download robust lists of company data for free.
Other valuable Jigsaw features include Company Wiki--where any company can update their very own wiki page--and free company research.
'''Data Independence Day--June 4, 2008'''
On June 4, 2008 Jigsaw announced the Open Data Initiative and declared Data Independence Day. This bold move meant that now anyone could download company data for over 1.5 million companies for free. Previously, people had to search the Web for one off data or subscribe to expensive data services. To promote this "Next Revolution" in the data industry Jigsaw founders launched a YouTube video dressed in revolutionary costume and took to Haight Street in San Francisco to tell the world.
Jigsaw's blog provides a comical look at life in sales
