I am seeking recommendations of what kind of database is the best used for researching company sales / history data. The databases could either be free, paid subscription, etc. I would like to find out what anyone has used & can suggest.
Thanks!

Hi Eileen:
D&B has a good service that can give you company history and credit ratings if you're looking to check on prospects before working with them.

Hoovers also has good company profile and general information for basic research of prospects.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for your prompt reply and information. I did touch base with the links and Hoovers as you recommended. I am unable to locate company sales / history data since my research is based on a private company so many D&B databases have estimated information which I have found is not accurate in for my project.
