Hunter vs. RocketReach

The scenario we most commonly use Hunter for is to quickly find and retrieve contact email information. Phone numbers are an added bonus, but they tend to only be available for contacts in the US. SDRs have the extension in order to confirm or to help them "guess" as to what a contact's email address might be. This speeds up our prospecting time considerably. Where Hunter falls short is not being flexible where companies have more than one email format.

As a salesperson seeking new business, most of my day entails looking for contacts and the right contact information to follow. RocketReach helps me quickly find the right contact at each firm, stating their role, and providing me their email and phone number. It makes it much easier than going to company websites.

• Hunter provides a quick and easy way to look up the email format for any company using the free Google Chrome extension.
• Hunter allows you to upload a bulk list of emails and verify them easily.
• Hunter shows where verified emails were found on web pages and PDF documents. This shows that the emails were published by trusted sources.

• Hunter is only as valuable as the information it is able to scrape from the internet. If a company has not listed any email addresses online, then Hunter is not going to be able to find it.
• Sometimes Hunter is only able to identify non-personal-specific email addresses (ex: info @, support@, etc.). This makes it difficult to identify personnel emails
• Sometimes companies will have different email domains that Hunter is not able to correlate. For example, when searching for an email address at Lead.com, Hunter is not able to point to ParentCompany.com email addresses that would be more useful.

Incentivized

• Search criteria having to be manually deleted
• Finding the right contact
• In my opinion, Outdated contact information

We have been trying to get lead information on SalesTools and PLENTY, however, these two tools are mostly oriented to create follow-up campaigns and the setup is pretty complicated. If you are looking to create just a list of semi-qualified leads, you may try Hunter, but SalesTools has already an inner feature to build prospects in a better way.

RocketReach was more user friendly than Zoom info, but also it was more logical with use case. The prices for RocketReach remain unmatched! You get a lot of value for your money and I did not need all of the extra capabilities from Zoom info. RocketReach gets the job done for me.

• Positive to be sure. I don't always get the results I want, but I use the free version and I'm satisfied to go there first when I need an email
• It's a fast quality product. It was better before when it resided on my LinkedIn account, but that's another matter...

Incentivized

• Increase the amount of contacts we upload daily to our CRM
• Lead us to send out 2x the amount of emails each day
• Uncover new prospects
