Hunter vs. ZeroBounce

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.

ZeroBounce is ideal for maintaining and improving your email deliverability. It's great for accurately processing large lists that contain many domains (not just the big box ISPs) and rooting out complainers. These results have the potential to reduce bounces before they happen, and keep your domain/IP reputation in good standing. ZeroBounce while exceeding expectations in email list cleaning, I would not recommend purchasing an email list, running it through their system and expect to be inboxing right out of the gate. Your deliverability is only as good as your list quality no matter how "clean" you think your list is.

• 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.

• ZeroBounce provides us with not only valid emails but also separates the catch all addresses
• Their security is probably the best in the world
• Their support is exceptionally responsive
• They are more economical than our previous provider

• 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.

• Adding properties in callback like MailboxProvider
• Increasing the rate limiting API
• I think a blacklist ZeroBounce's end, with a chance to revalidate those emails.

I think the features are good, but it makes my brain hurt (and feel overtaxed) when I have to jump between searching by name and domain and then searching via a specific email to verify. I wish I could do all of that from one landing page, one über search bar.

ZeroBounce is very simple to use. The interface is very user friendly. We didn't have to undergo any training or watch any instructional videos when we first logged in. There are little pop ups to highlight different features and explain certain things, but overall it's just upload a .csv and wait for the results. It then combines the results into one clean PDF breakdown, but it also gives more in-depth feedback through separate Excel sheets.

We have used ZeroBounce for about 18 months and it works flawlessly. We are able to get all of our questions/issues answered immediately. Felt very comfortable with the product immediately - used their web site which walked us through it and were able to get up and running within minutes. I really haven't had any issues that required support.

Hunter is a good all in one solution, which hasnt always been the case as it used to be a daa only solution. However, other tools like lemlist as slightly more user friendly and make it so simple to build and launch multi-channel campaigns , and do this slightly better than Hunter.

ZeroBounce has better brand value and brand recognition compared to competitors in market. NeverBounce may still do a little better compared to ZeroBounce just because its a ZoomInfo company and has ZoomInfo data to back it up. Pricing need to be improved. Still we chose ZerBounce because it was best in business for email validation.
