Hunter vs. VoilaNorbert

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.

VoilaNorbert is great for sales people trying to find email addresses but we use it mainly in a PR capacity. It's best suited in our workflow if you know the site and the person you are reaching out to. In terms of scenarios where it is less appropriate, if you are looking to find related people or related sites to the one you are reaching out to, I haven't explored that functionality.

• 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.

• Precise email address most of the time
• Easy to use
• Easy to track the usage

• 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.

• Additional subscription options

I've never had any issues personally, but I know that any of my other colleagues have had quick support after emailing.

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.

It is more reliable than 80% of the other apps available in the market in terms of generating email address. Some tools like snov.io and others which were not available to on search bar are used for the same, but their result quality is very poor. Even the paid version of such tools are not reliable.

• 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

• Improved efficiency on prospecting efforts and outreach
• Ability to reach out to a larger amount of leads in less time
