I just did the trial so this question in not relevant.

Chose lemlist
We switched because lemlist was something that our manager had used in the past in his last org. and he recommended us to go for a trial version to make the final decision of which services we want to use. Lemlist was equally good and was a cheaper alternative, as we are a …
Chose lemlist
lemlist has elite UX/UI, better deliverability, and the best customer support when compared to the competition
UpLead
Chose UpLead
Winmo is great but is very expensive. Apollo.io is not as user friendly and didn't provide the content in an easy manner. Also didn't have as many mobile numbers.
Chose UpLead
Multiple factors - data quality and price plans were key factors.
Chose UpLead
UpLead costs a bit more, but I found the data on UpLead to be well worth it in comparison and it was easier to transfer to our CRM (HubSpot). I like how they also provide useful API integration into UpLead and I hope they begin to offer more automation in the future.
Chose UpLead
I prefer UpLead over both Apollo and Zoominfo based on user-friendly and quality leads.
Chose UpLead
UpLead is beginner-friendly and much easy and comfortable for me to use and navigate all the icons.

Apollo.io
Apollo.io played big role for us in saving $$$ by bringing data mining, AI Email Writing and acting as CRM altogether...for small to medium organization they can surely rely on Apollo.io...and it is doing things mostly right with some room for improvement for sure. Sales and Marketing team saves time in getting their emails drafted based on prompts, list of contacts they can fetch in minutes of time, earlier we used to have seperate tool just to mine data, then we used to upload the CSV file to email marketing tool, then we used to draft email...for all these process we were using three different tools - Apollo.io brought everything under one umbrella.

UpLead
UpLead is well suited for environments where there is a lot of accurate contact information to research mainly generating sales for a business. On the other hand, businesses that don't require searching up a huge amount of contact data and that doesn't add up to the sales of a business do not need to use this software.

Pros
Apollo.io
  • Firstly, finding the details of the potential customers that is there name, designation email and phone number since these are the most important cases most of the times I can get this data in Apollo.io
  • I can pull the bulk data of the targeted organization, or I can pull the emails based on the location and job titles
  • Apart from the email capture, the thing which helpful is that the email sequence can find emails and send emails in Apollo.io itself and also the report and the dashboard are so clean
  • Friendly UI and UX Apollo.io was the first tool which I used. Since then I'm still using Apollo.io for easy understanding

Cons
Apollo.io
  • There are certain features about prospecting that require updates. For example, if people switch organisations, it should be automatically requesting the new email or new contact data for a particular contact in order to be updated in the system
  • The lead databases that are created if their new addition should automatically be updated in the list that I created with Apollo.io

UpLead
  • More data on small and start-up companies, but this situation is understandable.
  • Collecting a long list of contacts, especially of overseas companies, can sometimes take a while as UpLead is verifying the data. But the wait is typically understandable and worth it.
  • Sometimes I struggle with translating job functions in a foreign language, but this is easy to overcome.

Support Rating
Apollo.io
The team wants to solve probelms, but we are finding that they don't know how to solve the more technical issues quickly. I suspect that they don't have a mature process for escalations, and they don't have a usable knowledge base article repository. They seems to push emails around to let us know that people are working on the issues to find solutions, but this takes weeks and oftentimes still leaves us without a resolution.

Alternatives Considered
Apollo.io
All of these platforms are good and offer valuable tools, but where Apollo.io is different is how this one platform does the job of several different ones. It is nice not having to use multiple platforms to get things done and makes integration and analytics issues occur less often. It is user friendly and constantly working to improve.

We switched because lemlist was something that our manager had used in the past in his last org. and he recommended us to go for a trial version to make the final decision of which services we want to use. Lemlist was equally good and was a cheaper alternative, as we are a startup the overall cost of using a service is also something we need to keep in mind.
