September 20, 2018

Very positive, simple and does the job. Havent looked at other similar softwares since my prospecting assistant started using this.

Pros

Its simple, concentrated and clean. The accuracy of the identified emails is pretty good as well.

Cons

Its a pity that linkedin prohibited them using their add-on on their website. It was amazing with it.

### "So simple!"

July 31, 2020

5.0

AMAZING! So easy to use.

Pros

I love how easy it is to look up emails and also to VERIFY them! I tell everyone about Hunter and that they should use it!

Cons

I'd like to have more things on one page verus clicking secondary buttons for verify, etc. But that is minimal!

### "I'm a new user to Hunter but already seeing the benefits"

November 30, 2017

5.0

It saves me so much time. I can find an email address in a matter of seconds.

Pros

I use Hunter specifically to find email addresses for prospects. I like the fact that I don't have to trawl the internet for this or try to coerce an email address from the receptionist!

Cons

It can't always find the right email address. So far, it has helped me find quite a few but there was one instance when it actually gave me the wrong email address.

### "Powerful email finding tool"

August 10, 2018

3.0

I love the tool and hopefully they will let this be used in LinkedIn again

Pros

I like the fact that you can get the email address of your leads in just one click. It will also let you know accurate the email address is. They have a free version too if you want to test the software first

Cons

The tool is only limited in finding emails address for big companies but not for boutique ones and right now this tool does not work in LinkedIn

### "Great experience, using it a lot. It truly is a helpful tool. "

April 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

\*One of the most accurate email finders I've tried. Great level of accuracy. \*Comfortable and easy to use.

Cons

\* Verifier could be done instantly or have an additional button right in the 'Finder' section. \* Need for an additional solution, when the email server accepts all the email addresses. \* It would be also great to adjust to Dutch and Spanish names. Sometimes need to play manually with different variations, because the contact people usually have more than two names.

### "If you're in Sales, give this a try"

December 17, 2019

4.0

It helped me find emails and did what is was supposed to do. No email software is perfect, Hunter is easy to use and makes finding emails or patterns of emails easy.

Pros

I recently was recommended Hunter to find email addresses for a big Lead Generation project I was working on. Hunter helps find and helps predict emails of users searched.

Cons

Sometimes, the emails provided and copied, did not work and had a bounce. Also, it can be a little pricey.

### "Awesome tool for finding email addresses!"

October 29, 2022

5.0

Pros

The best part of Hunter is how you can insert a website URL and it will reveal how email addresses are typically formatted at that company. I've used Hunter to prepare for marketing campaigns at multiple companies. It's free! Awesome tool!

Cons

Don't have any cons. Hunter is amazing. A must-have for anyone who works in marketing.

### "Great for Contacting the Right People! "

February 3, 2022

5.0

Pros

Hunter allows me to find the exact people I want to get in contact with and gives me the contact information needed.

Cons

Hunter gets fairly expensive, but in my opinion it is worth it because it makes me so much more revenue than i did before Hunter

### "Hunting professional email with Hunter"

October 22, 2019

4.0

Hunter.io fits best when we need to extract professional email addresses along with detailed research on any intended company.

Pros

Hunter has an inbuilt search engine through which a user can extract email addresses and company details by submitting the intended company's web address, which is the best-liked thing about this app.

Cons

Hunter.io now has removed a feature that would allow a user to search and verify professional email addresses from the LinkedIn profile link.

### "Fantastic email research tool!! I should know...I've tried several."

March 19, 2018

5.0

Pros

Hunter's bulk email finder is uh-MAZING! With first name, last name, company & website already in my spreadsheet, Hunter filled in the email addresses for all of them!

Cons

Hunter has a great Add-On for Google Sheets, but Google only allows it (or any script) to run for 6 minutes. That only translated to about 200 entries at a time in my list of 1,000+. To work around this I had to export my list to CSV and plug it into Hunter's Bulk Email Finder. I would love to stay in Sheets for the whole process. Maybe this could be done by allowing the user to process a range of rows within their spreadsheet. For example, first I specify that only rows 1-200 should be processed. Then, when that's done, I rerun the script on rows 201-400, etc.

### "Not reliable in most cases"

May 25, 2021

5.0

Nice to have in addition, as most salespeople will use multiple providers for software like this to increase their chances.

Pros

The ease of use was helpful, where it gives you the browser extension to make searching for contacts easier, and also the website is very easy to search on.

Cons

a lot of the time they are either outdated information, or just guesswork based on the URL of the company's website.

Response from Hunter

June 11, 2021

Hi Jit! Samara here from Hunter. Thank you for submitting your review and glad to hear you're finding Hunter easy to use. I'm sorry you noticed some outdated emails. Hunter works by scouring the web to find publicly available email addresses. Once we find a source for an email, we check back on that source every couple of months to update the email in case it can no longer be found. If you want to make sure of the validity of the emails found with Hunter, I would suggest using the Email Verifier (https://hunter.io/email-verifier) or Bulk Email Verifier tool (https://hunter.io/bulks/email-verifier). If the email is no longer valid, you will then have a full deliverability report so you don't get bounces. When you get the chance, it would be great if you could share some example emails where you noticed they're outdated so we can look into it further for you. You can reach out to us at contact@hunter.io. Thanks again for sharing your experience!

### "Hunter Review"

June 27, 2019

5.0

Overall it's a handy business tool and a great product. In fact, it's the best email finding tool.

Pros

It is so easy to use and response time is just blinking of eyes. You type the prospect and domain and get the result in no time. It's a very simple software to use whenever you want. It comes with all the features required for the lead generation.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike but there is a problem, Hunter always provides email whether it's correct or not.

### "Hunter is a Great Google Add-On for Those Looking for Contacts"

November 19, 2018

4.0

It's hit or miss, so do a little bit more research to verify e-mails and contact information.

Pros

If you're looking for who to contact if you're in the influencer field like I am, this is a great Google Chrome add-on to have.

Cons

It's not always accurate or up to date, but that's not entirely the add-on's fault. Some people verify e-mails off of websites that are not connected with the company that you're researching.

### "Best prospecting tool"

May 10, 2018

5.0

Pros

I love that hunter lists every contact in a website just by a click of a button. It's really impressive how they have found those addresses and show you a link as in to where it was found. I also love the search feature based on email formats

Cons

I wish there was a bulk search feature, some sort lead building tool that allows users to set parameters and find people, especially now that it doesn't work with linkedin anymore.

August 1, 2019

5.0

Pros

I can view all the contacts of a company that’s available with Hunter.io To copy an email ID, I just have to click and it’s copied. That easy! Also, it searches contact info from the web and not their database

Cons

Wish they gave more than 100 free trials

January 22, 2018

I have recommended a number of people use this site, it's very valuable for marketers.

Pros

I love the Hunter tool and make use of it regularly. It's quick and easy (I don't bother with the Chrome plugin - I just use the website) and it is reliable.

Cons

The pricing when you look at bulk verification options. There are cheaper tools out there that seem to do the job just as well. See: Zerobounce. Sorry Hunter!

### "Using hunter to find leads"

December 9, 2023

5.0

Pros

Hunter has been a lifesaver when running email campaigns for partnerships. 90% of the time it helps find emails of people we need to reach out to.

Cons

It is pricey. Fortunately, it has a free trial and credits, but compared to other tools, it is expensive.

### "If it were only this easy!"

September 7, 2019

3.0

As I build prospect lists of people to contact to sell to, I need a reliable and affordable tool to make the process easier. This didn't do much for me.

Pros

I was able to get a few decision makers' email addresses. All you have to do is add it to Chrome, and push a button.

Cons

The results are usually weak. It mostly gives info@ and sales@ companydomain.com email addresses. Apparently the decision makers make it more difficult to find their best email address.
