Clearout vs TextMagic

Likelihood to Recommend

Clearout is the best and easiest email verification tool there is. It is a great tool for any company that does email outreach or needs to validate email lists on a regular basis. It is very easy to use, it's pretty much self explanatory. Clearout can validate both large and small email lists so it is appropriate for any size company that uses email marketing.

Connection between other services ERP, CRM and slack.
Textmagic is a tool for kids who want to SMS chat.
The possibility to change the SMS provider to Twilio or others. It is not legal to forbid that but they find a way to bypass that.

Alternatives Considered

We also use TrueMail to verify our email lists but we find the user interface is a little better with Clearout. Clearout is also more accurate in my experience when validating large email lists and completes the validation process faster than TrueMail. Both tools are good and both have a nice user interface.

We have our company cell phones through AT&T and we researched setting up a text blasting service through them. It would have been a very expensive option and it made no sense to spend that kind of money when TextMagic does everything we need it to do for a minimal investment
