When is GLG the better choice?

GLG is the better choice if you need to speak to specific experts yourself, run many interviews or a large survey quickly, or reach senior people in many countries and languages. On its own published description:

• Direct access to experts. GLG's expert network page says an expert network "connects decision-makers at leading organizations with Industry experts for paid consultations and research". Its expert calls page describes "direct, one-on-one consultations" and lists uses including speaking "directly with B2B buyers and potential prospects".
• Interviews at scale. Its AI-Moderated Calls run structured interviews on your discussion guide, and the AI Moderator "conducts calls in 10 languages". You receive the full transcript and recording.
• Large B2B surveys. Its corporate teams page says GLG surveys "give corporate teams access to 1.2M+ screened B2B experts and decision-makers", and lists pricing work including willingness-to-pay analysis and conjoint-based pricing optimisation.
• A full study run for you, one project at a time. With Expert-Led Research, a GLG project lead "designs the study, runs it, and delivers the analysis", using interviews, focus groups, online discussion boards and surveys.
• Exclusivity and advisors. On an expert call you can "secure exclusivity with an expert to prevent other competitors from engaging for a set period of time", or bring the expert in as an advisor. GLG also places board directors, deal advisors, fractional executives and expert witnesses.
• Global reach. GLG's about page says its offices in the Americas, Europe, India, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific serve its global clients, and its expert network page says it has been a preferred partner to many organisations "For over 25 years".

When is ORRJO Intelligence the better choice?

ORRJO Intelligence is the better choice if you want ongoing research on your own ICP, buyers and competitors written up for your team, a published starting price, or research that feeds straight into outbound and marketing.

• Your go-to-market, researched on retainer. ICP research, win-loss analysis, voice of customer, buyer interviews and competitive intelligence are all delivered inside ORRJO Intelligence. There is no standalone sprint.
• Outputs your sales team can act on. Battlecards are delivered as documents (Notion, PDF, Slides), and ORRJO Intelligence produces a current shortlist of accounts that match your ICP, each with a real reason to call.
• A published starting price. From £2,500 a month, bought on its own or as part of a full ORRJO engagement. Engagements run on 6 or 12 month contracts, and committing to 12 months earns a discounted rate.
• Written up and checked. An ORRJO analyst checks and signs off every report. First findings by day 15.
• Research that feeds execution. The same research sets the target accounts for ORRJO's Lead Generation and the message for Demand Generation, run by one team.

One honest limit: no ORRJO Intelligence client reference is available yet. General ORRJO reference calls are available on request.

How much does GLG cost compared with ORRJO Intelligence?

We cannot compare totals, because GLG does not publish prices on the pages we checked.

Its expert network page says experts who join GLG set their own hourly rate, so ask how the cost of a call is worked out.

ORRJO Intelligence starts from £2,500 a month on our pricing page, as a monthly retainer. When you ask GLG for a proposal, ask what each call, survey response or report costs, and whether there is a subscription or a minimum.

Who does the research, and who writes it up?

With GLG, it depends on the format. On an expert call you drive the interview, and GLG's tools help you search and summarise transcripts. An AI-Moderated Call is "a 1:1 expert interview where a GLG discussion guide is asked by an AI Moderator instead of a human interviewer". With Expert-Led Research, GLG says: "A complete report, not raw transcripts", with a project lead who brings "years of firsthand experience to the work".

With ORRJO Intelligence, ORRJO analysts run the research and write it up, and an ORRJO analyst checks and signs off every report. Our methodology page sets out how findings are checked before delivery. The work is about one thing: how your company wins its market, from ICP and buyer voice to competitors and target accounts.

How quickly does each one deliver?

GLG's surveys page says "many survey projects deliver results in about two weeks", depending on the audience, survey length, screening criteria and project scope. Expert calls run on a 24/7 coverage model across time zones, and AI-moderated calls run on the expert's schedule, in any time zone.

ORRJO Intelligence has one timing promise: first findings by day 15.

Can you use both?

Yes. They do different jobs: a team might use GLG for calls with senior experts on a market it is entering, and ORRJO Intelligence for ongoing research on its own buyers, competitors and target accounts that its sales and marketing teams act on.

What should you ask either one before you sign?

1. What does the price cover: calls, survey completes, a report, or a monthly retainer?
2. Who runs the interviews, and who writes up the findings?
3. How are experts or respondents screened, and how is compliance handled? GLG describes a multi-layered screening process; ask every provider the same question.
4. When do we see first findings, and in what format?
5. Does the research end with a report, or does it feed our outbound and marketing?
6. Can we speak to a client who bought the same service? ORRJO's honest answer for Intelligence: no ORRJO Intelligence client reference is available yet.
