The business environment has become complicated hence it is prudent to get background information about a company you are about to approach, either for sales or for pitch. It is always useful to be well prepared and informed about a company. Here is a list of companies ( not in order ) which helps in a way to keep us informed about companies.

  1.

Owler on one hand provides information about companies but requires you to sign-up which is a little frustrating because none of the other competitor ask for it.
