Why look beyond Apollo.io

Most teams outgrow the setup, not the data.

These facts come from Apollo's own pricing page. They are the points buyers weigh when they compare.

01

Cost grows with every rep

Apollo is priced per seat, and credits are counted per seat. Ten reps on Professional cost ~€704 a month.

02

Credits do not carry over

Apollo's pricing page says unused credits expire, with no rollover between periods.

03

You run the machine

Reps search, build lists, write sequences and work replies themselves. The AI Assistant is labelled introductory on its pricing page.

How to choose

Four questions decide it.

Ask them before you book a single demo.

01

Who does the work?

A database and a sequencer still need a rep to run them. An AI sales partner runs the campaign alongside you: you see each step and approve what goes out.

02

Is data included?

Some tools bring contacts, some expect a CSV. Check whether enrichment and verification cost extra.

03

How does price scale?

Per seat pricing grows with each hire. Per plan pricing with shared credits does not.

04

Do you see buying signals?

Job changes, hiring and post engagement tell you who to contact now, not just who exists.
