Apollo.io alternatives: six picks by credits, seats and published price

Apollo.io alternatives: the six picks

Apollo.io prices per seat and splits credits into Email, Mobile and Export types, so its alternatives differ on seats, credit units and price. Basic is $65 per seat a month, billed monthly, or $49 per seat a month, billed annually. The six picks below show a monthly-billed price where one is printed.

• Snov.io for unlimited team seats from $39 a month, billed monthly.
• UpLead if one credit must unlock the email and the mobile direct dial.
• Hunter for work emails with a free plan.

Why teams compare Apollo.io: seats, credit types and expiry

Apollo.io's pricing page says all seats on an account are on the same plan. ZoomInfo vs Apollo.io sets those plans beside a quoted platform. Professional is $99 per seat a month, billed monthly, or $79 per seat a month, billed annually. Organization is $149 per seat a month, billed monthly, or $119 per seat a month, billed annually, with a minimum of 3 seats.

Credits are pooled across the team and granted at the start of each billing cycle. Unused credits expire at the end of each cycle, add-on credits included, and extra credits renew automatically until removed. Apollo.io lists what each action costs in credits inside its account, not on its pricing page.

Apollo.io documents a bounce refund: if an Apollo-verified email bounces within 30 days, it refunds the credits in the next billing cycle. It covers only emails sent within Apollo, and no mobile numbers.

UpLead and Lusha for direct dials

UpLead's credit unlocks one contact for download or CRM export, with the email and the mobile direct dial. Essentials holds 170 credits a month for one user, and extra credits cost $0.60 each. UpLead's terms say credits do not roll over into the next term. Lusha charges 5 credits for a phone number, and its monthly plans let unused credits roll over and accumulate up to twice the plan limit. UpLead vs Apollo.io has the head-to-head.

Snov.io and Prospeo for low monthly prices

Snov.io Starter holds 1,000 credits, and every paid plan includes unlimited team seats. Snov.io counts 1 credit per prospect or email verification, and it prices recipients and enrichment tokens separately. Prospeo Starter holds 2,000 credits per user a month, with 1 credit for a verified email and 10 for a mobile number. Prospeo's pages disagree on rollover.

Hunter and Seamless.AI: free credits, different jobs

Hunter finds work emails at 1 credit each, and its Free plan gives 50 credits a month with unlimited users. Seamless.AI says it is free for up to 50 credits, then sells through its sales team, and its pricing page forwards to a sales form with no price. Best email finder tool covers the finders in depth.

Apollo.io's trial runs 14 days and includes 75 credits and most features of the plan chosen. UpLead's trial runs 7 days with 5 credits. Its help center says payment details are entered to start it, and an account not canceled by day 7 is billed $890 annually for the Essentials Plan.
