### "Very helpful when hunting for unknown email address"

January 13, 2019

4.0

Pros

Hunter has allowed our new-business team to get in touch with many people who we otherwise would have just passed over.

Cons

Produces lots of irrelevant results, but it's better than zero results.

### "Must have Sales extension "

February 12, 2019

5.0

Totally a must have for my team and I. No more spamming, reach the contact you want directly.

Pros

In sales and marketing, I’m always looking for a good way to speak to POC. This is a great way to test emails for valid address, create marketing list for newsletters to separate groups and multiple people in the same organization. I use this tool daily to verify and export lists to other emailing software for marketing purposes.

Cons

Totally bummed that this no longer integrates with sales navigator on linked in. That was the most amazing tool when networking on that platform.

### "Awesome for finding emails"

August 20, 2018

4.0

Not a perfect product but you get SO MUCH for the free version that it was worth using. I would definitely teach it to your sales team so they have one more tool in their back pocket to find emails.

Pros

It really helped find contacts' information quickly. While not as detailed or precise as Zoominfo, it certainly was helpful particularly since Hunter was free and Zoominfo was not. Overall, for what we used it for (to find emails and contact information), it was pretty awesome.

Cons

When importing contacts from Hunter, they would move into leads instead of contacts. This posed problems for our account managers who would have to convert each lead. It also was problematic for our inbound sales team that worked primarily to qualify all leads before making them into accounts. We fixed this problem by not allowing account executives to import. They had to manually enter the data.

### "Easy to use email discovery tool"

August 21, 2022

4.0

Excellent experience overall. Your millage will always vary depending on the industry you are searching for. The good thing is that you only pay for actual discovered emails that you download. You can search as long and as often as you wish. You only pay if you use a list.

Pros

You can't ask for a simpler interface for either individual searches or bulk searches by individual name or company.

Cons

The only dislike is a minor quibble. When loading bulk lists if you make an error, for instance in assigning a field you need to go back to the beginning and start a new search. Its a quibble and I only mention it because I need something in this box.

Reason for choosing Hunter

The price/contact was outstanding and the Hunter API was compatible with other platforms we were using.

### "President / Sales"

August 24, 2022

5.0

I use the software to confirm email addresses. Sometimes I have to utilize an educated guess on an address and then test it with Hunter. I used a couple of ways to improve my guess on the email and test.

Pros

The software is easy for a non-tech person to figure out.

Cons

No software presents no problems with the use of the program.

Pros

It can easily integrate with your current CRM and Very easy to use for mass email campaign also you can schedule the emails for your database. You can also find bulk emails by using some basic details.

Cons

### "Review of Hunter"

August 10, 2018

3.0

As I said, very easy to use and understand. When I ask for help, the customer service team are available and answer the questions I ask quickly.

Pros

Very useful tool to find email addresses. The majority are correct including the best guesses. Easy to use and understand.

Cons

On a 'Bulk Find' I can't upload a whole list of data where some have email addresses and others don't. This is frustrating as I'm having to split my data to filter the ones with email addresses out and then when the product has found an email address for the rest I'm then having to enter it into the main data list. It would be easier if the program was able to recognise an 'Email' column when you're matching them and if there's one in there it skips, or even validates it, before moving onto the next one, meaning I'm not using credits to find an email address I already have.

### "the best as a freemium"

April 22, 2022

5.0

if you work in the cold emails business, Hunter will massively increase your efficiency

Pros

I think the best function is the ability to find leads throw websites and create basic campaigns for free

Cons

according to competitors, the pro plans seem to be high priced

### "The right tool for business development teams | Hunter"

March 9, 2022

5.0

Overall, Hunter makes email management and contact management quite simple and fast. The extension has been well thought and would definitely recommend it!

Pros

The Hunter extension is by far the best part about this software. It eases the process of extracting emails from LinkedIn profiles quite convenient and quick.

Cons

There are no significant drawbacks of the software. The extension works really well and provides the necessary information at the earliest.

### "It's saved my time when I need collect emails for outreach "

June 28, 2018

5.0

Pros

Wheather you are the marketer, salesperson, link builder Hunter.io is one the quickest solution to collect emails. The interface is very clean, and software is easy to use. Well done.

Cons

I am satisfied in general. Some new features are always welcome. Integration with Linkedin maybe can be improved.

### "Very good and reliable product "

January 3, 2019

5.0

I have used them for over a year now and love the software. I had a small issue once and it was resolved very quickly through their online support. I use another service as well but I have to say out of the two we use Hunter is the best. It's ease of use and accurcy is why I thinks its the best on the market in my oppion.

Pros

Getting accurate emails and ease of use. I love the fact that it's easy to use and the email I get are accurate.

Cons

I really don't have any cons. I would really like to see a feature were you don't have to do a monthly plan but pay for a one time bulk upload and find emails. We still would use the monthly plan but we sometime need to do a one time bulk match. But like I said not a real con.

### "email orchestration through webapp"

May 24, 2018

4.0

good tool for email prospecting.

Pros

very simple and intuitive UI, hunter adds a chrome extension and searches and displays all emails of the people who are on the page. It used to be one of the best product for searching emails on linkedin., but that feature has since been disabled. I have used this software many a times to find the email address for the person that I was trying to contact.

Cons

Accuracy for data of smaller companies is very small inaccurate. Relying on this data for running marketing campaigns is a good way to get your domains blacklisted. Also since sales navigator has opened multiple avenues for inmail marketing, Hunter might find competitor tough.

### "Hunter for the win!"

August 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

As a sales person who is constantly trying to find contacts email addresses, Hunter has been a nice tool to use. The new addition of the confirmed email address is nice.

Cons

Sometimes emails are not correct but what can you do. This is a tough area to be 100% correct.

### "Quite good, if you give it a chance."

April 13, 2020

4.0

Hunter is quick and easy tool to scrape email addresses. Hard to complain, since there's no other user-friendly option out there which simply does the job and is legitimate.

Pros

The email addresses are mostly scraped from what's available publicly, which is a hit or miss. Some of the email addresses do lead to the inbox of your intended target audience and some are just abandoned emails that no one checks, or gets bounced even. This is the best lead generator I've come across in recent times.

Cons

It doesn't have any verifiable source to check the leads. We have to check the email addresses ourselves to see if they go anywhere. More premium paid tools tend to cross-check the contact addresses of their vast network of users to see if the email addresses are valid, Hunter does not have that functionality.

### "awesomehunter"

March 21, 2018

5.0

Don't forget to get this if you are in the lead generation business. Really helpful in generating leads.ACCUracy is great

Pros

I love how easy it is to use. There are lots of data that will help you out in looking for contact information. You won't worry about running out of credits since it gives you a hundred every month

Cons

It would be better if it's integrated in Linkedin so we can just clicked on it, instead of it being on a separate tab/window

January 26, 2024

5.0

Pros

Quickness, ease of use, ability to use without purchasing a plan.

Cons

Some emails are not found for those who work for a certain company. This may be a software related drawback or the people do not have an email at all.

### "My review"

April 11, 2022

5.0

Overall, it is a great app to use when prospecting or searching for leads.

Pros

The best feature I think is the functionality of searching websites for emails. This helps amazingly with my prospecting and finding contacts and their titles.

Cons

Because of not using all the functions with the app, I dont think I really have a least favorite feature right now.

### "Good!"

February 21, 2018

3.0

Pros

It gives me work emails for a candidate on LinkedIn that I need to contact especially if my other email finding tools doesn't work anymore.

Cons

It has a very limited number of work emails in a month. You need to wait for another month to refresh the numbers.

### "Excellent customer service! Useful app for finding leads and contacting them."

February 12, 2019

5.0

The chat support feature has been really helpful. Rep is awesome and was quick to respond and provide the steps to get the account set up properly! A+ customer service. Outreach (sending emails to leads) is great feature, but can use some additional updates to make it even more intuitive. ie emails to a specific person should address their name and general emails should address the company/team.

Pros

ability to find emails outside of general support

Cons

Bulk upload feature and emailing leads can use some updates. I had to clean my list first to provide clear domains in order for Hunter to find the leads. Some setting changes were required in order to get my account set up properly but support chat was very helpful. I couldn't figure out how to address direct leads by name and general leads by company/team name. I manually made changes before it the emails went into queue

### "Great Prospecting Tool"

January 17, 2023

5.0

Great service and product at a very reasonable price.

Pros

I cover a very large multi-state territory and need to effectively reach my targets without traveling extensively just to knock on doors. I was able to utilize HUNTER to keep my pipeline filled.

Cons

Academic/medical emails can be incredibly difficult to get as they also tend to use numbers. Not Hunter's fault if they can not be found on the web.

### "fantastic tool and great team at Hunter"

May 4, 2018

5.0

Pros

The Hunter software has helped me in my role, the core of my work in profiling senior buyers in large organisations and building relationships. I like the accuracy of this product and the help from the team is a cut above.

Cons

This tool is accurate pretty much most of the time. I don't see any cons to report on this review to date and I have been using the tool for over 6 months.

### "The best way to collect many contacts just browsing the web"

April 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

What is super nice with Hunter is that it is very easy to use. You can just add the plugin to your browser, like Chrome, then you can activate it and when surfing on most websites you'll be able to collect all emails the plugin can found in the domain. If you want to do business development and grow your business by contacting many partners/brands/clients, it's probably a super efficient way to have contacts easily.

Cons

On some brand new websites/with low frequentation, it can fail. Also, you can't collect emails on linkedin unfortunately, despite the fact that it's one of the more important database for emails. Besides, sometimes it shows certain email addresses but it is not verified in fact, so it can be disappoiting.
