In May 2021, it announced the acquisitions of sales intelligence platform InsideView InsideView and firmographics vendor DemandMatrix. Going forward, the Demandbase suite will incorporate a Sales Intelligence Cloud and a Data Cloud to complement the existing ABX (Account Based Experience) Cloud and Advertising Cloud.[9]
