Executives in Africa Ltd, a UK-based executive search firm specializing in senior leadership across Africa, struggled with slow and inefficient ways to add LinkedIn profiles to their database.

The team praised the seamless roll out and ease of use, giving Coral Starfish a resounding 100% recommendation.
“Using Coral Starfish has been a game-changer for our research team.

Peridot Partners, a UK-based executive search firm specialising in board and leadership recruitment, implemented Coral Starfish to streamline adding LinkedIn profiles into their Invenias database.

The tool’s simplicity and accuracy earned high praise.
“Using Coral Starfish to manage the integration of people from LinkedIn to our recruiter database Invenias has been hugely positive. The time it takes to add people is twice as quick and so simple that it has made a significant impact to our efficiency and the way we work.

Researchers now focus less on manual updates and more on business development. The integration has been rolled out to over 50 team members, leading to a much more efficient workflow.
The only requested improvement: smarter company matching using AI when importing profiles. Overall, Amrop highly recommends Coral Starfish for firms looking to automate LinkedIn-to-Invenias data syncing.
“By using Coral Starfish we have the opportunity to quickly improve our own database by adding new profiles. It provides us very quick and detailed information instead of adding data one by one which is very time consuming. Coral Starfish is a great asset for Executive Search companies.”
