The appropriate sales intelligence platform is critical to your company’s success; VP Sales, Sales Directors, Sales Managers, SDRs, BDRs, and BDMAs have more alternatives than ever when it comes to sales intelligence tools to power their teams. Hunter and Rocketreach are two of the most common solutions compared on this page.

💡 Fun Fact:

Prospecting is an essential function in a B2B sales team. Despite this, prospecting is frequently cited as a source of pain for salespeople, accounting for over 50% of their time spent on unproductive prospecting owing to bad contact data, incorrect prospects, and delays in timeliness.

Features

Hunter has more features than Rocketreach. The main characteristics of Rocketreach include the fact that it allows you to export information, which enables you to build an internal repository for future use. It has a multi-user interface that is appropriate for teams and enterprises and allows external connections. Its database aids in the discovery of clients who would otherwise be out of reach. They will be extremely resourceful in developing and executing outreach efforts. Marketing assistance from Rocketreach includes prospect identification, list and database creation, and campaign tracking performance. Hunter.io is a fantastic service to use since it has several features. One of them is that it includes an incredibly simple domain search function. Simply put a website into the search field, and you’ll have all of the emails addressed to that domain. This aids in the capture of emails that you would otherwise miss out on. It takes only a few steps to confirm emails using this tool. Its customer relationship management dashboard is multidimensional, allowing you to better manage your emails and decluttering your work when launching an outreach or marketing campaign.

Pricing

Hunter is more affordable than Rocketreach. The Essentials plan, Pro plan, and Ultimate plan are the three main options on the RocketReach pricing system. For the essentials plan to be active, it costs $59 per month. The pro plan costs $119 per month. For $299 USD/month, you may use the ultimate plan up to 800+ lookups. Hunter has five different options, one starting at $49/month and at cheaper rates if paid annually. Overall, Hunter offers much cheaper pricing. They also avoid using a credit or coin system, which can contribute to expenses in some cases.

Data Quality

Rocketreach has higher data quality than Hunter. RocketReach is a simple, yet effective email finder. It’s easy to navigate and use. At least 85% of your prospects’ emails will be returned by RocketReach. All emails are SMTP validated to ensure that they do not bounce. To assure maximum accuracy, emails are generated in real time.

Contact Information

Rocketreach had greater amount of contact information than compared to Hunter. RocketReach data consists of real-time verified data for 430 million professionals across 20 million companies globally. Hunter is only as useful as the data it can gather from the internet. If a firm doesn’t have any email addresses published online, Hunter won’t be able to discover them. Hunter may only identify non-personal emails, making it tough to find personnel emails.
