RevealHim vs Intelius
An honest, opinionated comparison. We're not going to pretend Intelius is bad at everything — but we'll tell you exactly where each tool fits.
TL;DR
Intelius is one of the older players, and it shows. The interface feels straight out of 2010, and the data has the same vibe — fine if your subject's been at the same address since the Bush administration, weaker for younger or more mobile subjects. Their FCRA-compliant employment screening is a separate (paid) product.
