Dealfront vs. Hunter

If you're looking to find new sales/customer contacts and are not a fan of complete "cold calling", Leadfeeder is a great source for finding those contacts or companies which may benefit you as they're clearly already looking at you. It weeds out half of the footwork for you.

Hunter.io is very well suited for any sales rep who is building out lists of contacts for email outreach, or for marketer's looking to reach out to PR and marketing contacts for link building campaigns. The tool is a great free option if you are doing targeted, 1:1 personalized outreach and you need a few contacts. The tool can be expensive if you are needing to reach thousands of people. A paid version of Hunter.io is not a great fit if you already pay for another list building source such as Data.com or Discover.Org.

• Research Quality versus invested Time is absolutely efficient and motivating. Quick Research or Standard Alerts, both are done easily with instant results.
• Usability of the User Interface in any of the modules is very supportive. New Team members are trained in short time. Very much self-explaining.
• The connectivity between the modules is great and saves time. Each module has its key topic, but in Connection with the other modules this practical tool turns out to be even smarter more and powerful.

• Provides email domains very well. While some companies have a different domain for their "info@xyz.com", Hunter is able to find the domain that is being used by individuals at the company.
• For American contacts in particular it is very good at finding personal phone numbers.
• Helps to enrich the contacts that might be in a company by providing a confirmed list of employees.
• As an extra - I really like how easy it is to use. You can input the contacts name and copy-paste from the chrome extension quickly and easily. This saves a load of time when you are trying to find the right address.

• Leadfeeder has basic lead Tagging capabilities and some native integrations. It would be great to see more lead Activity Tracking and integration capabilities that sync with sales tools so a team could hypothetically keep their eyes on Leadfeeder-only while updating the CRM/sales tool.

• There have been times when I've search Hunter for an address on a website and it came back with no results. Then If I search the site I've often found an email address or two. So I'm curious why it wasn't able to find it with the tool, even when I could on my own?
• I'm not sure what the reasons were exactly why LinkedIn ordered the cease and desist, but I had hoped they two companies could come to terms or that at the least LinkedIn would acquire Hunter. But alas, it's not been the case.

Leadfeeder is the best anonymous visitor tracking software platform that I've ever used. Sitting as a layer on top of Google Analytics, the tool consistently provides us with accurate intelligence of what our hottest prospects are looking at while visiting our site. The Leadfeeder customer support is top notch and the company is always coming out with new updates that further improve the technology. On top of all of this, Leadfeeder integrates with Slack and our CRM, allowing me to continue to do my job without having to switch between various platforms throughout the day.

Always found the system super intuitive to use. I've never been stuck finding what I'm looking for and the team has some very clear and easy to understand documentation online.

Hunter is a pretty straightforward tool to use, like most of the tools on the market that execute the same sort of process. I would say it is not quite as user-friendly as some of the other tools on the market, which offer a plug and play process, but it is still fit for purpose.

While HubSpot CRM has it's own visitor tracking on an individual level, it is very much determined by if the visitor has submitted their details via a form before you can get this information. With Dealfront we can get this analytics before any action is taken to better improve our marketing and sales approach rather than needing to wait for a conversion to happen.

Hunter is a much more user-friendly version of Clearbit. I personally also find it to be more accurate than Clearbit. With Clearbit it felt like too many clicks to get to the information that you wanted. With Hunter, it is a simple copy - paste - click, to get the information you need. The additional list of contacts it provides and the verification source is also more readable.

• It has helped support us to understand our market and if our website is properly communicating to and providing value to that market
• We currently do not have the sales staff to go after potentially qualified organizations that visit the site but don't convert but it is a strategy we will employ at some point.

• Hunter has vastly improved my efficiency as a seller. It saves a lot of time for a lot of different reasons.
• The ability to confirm target email addresses saves valuable time having to re-send the same email to one person with multiple different attempts.
• Hunter has a pretty generous free trial ability, which is worthwhile in order to try before you buy.
