### "Hunter as an email search tool "

October 23, 2019

4.0

Overall it has gotten much better but still has a ways to go. The issue with both companies is the quality of the email addresses. With both companies they each will provide invalid emails every once in awhile. When this happens I then check a third company to get a balanced view. When Hunter rises to the task and can provide data on almost all companies I search then I will consider switching

Pros

Ease of use. I am a non-paying user. Hunter now has many more of the URL I search for. What I like best about Hunter is they often provide a telephone number. I only use Hunter and one other similar company which I do pay for despite not providing telephone numbers.

Cons

My only complaint is they need to somehow gather more Companies URL and associated human data. It is a matter of how many good quality human data emails & titles I can get quickly.

### "An easy way to get prospect email and phone number on the fly!"

March 30, 2021

3.0

I don't have too many complaints other than I didn't like the monthly fees. It was very easy to use to grab the emails I needed from websites.

Pros

I liked that I could easily click the button and see the people and information it had on file for the company I was prospecting.

Cons

I didn't like the monthly price when you aren't using the tool. It would be better if it was just a "credits" system and not renewal.

### "Hunter.io is a game changer for sales and marketing pros"

January 30, 2021

5.0

Great customer service. Streamlined functionality.

Pros

It’s a one of a kind resource for finding top exec’s email addresses with 90 percent reliability. One of our assistants informed us about it when we asked her to screenscrape email addresses of 500 professionals. She relied on hunter to get it done. Since then, it has been an invaluable resource for our team.

Cons

None. We found that its accuracy is unparalleled.

### "more than just 'hunting for emails' software"

August 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

Under the hood, Hunter is a lot more than just a tool for looking up emails related to a domain. We can search by domain (including the ability to mass import domains for lookup), or we can search for a specific person by entering their name and domain associated, and Hunter will return an email address along with a confidence score so you have an idea of the quality of the email. The verifier tool is helpful as well, because sometimes we want to go at it backwards - verifying that an email we already have for a contact is legit. I could go on about what I love about Hunter, but basically we started on the free version and were pleasantly surprised with how many additional features Hunter has that are extremely useful.

Cons

You can never really be sure what % of email addresses Hunter is pulling from a domain, but that is the case with all tools like this. Case in point - entering one of our company domains only returned a handful of our email addresses, but as long as Hunter returns something, it's more than what we've got which is why we use Hunter.

### "Easily the Best Tool For Lead Sourcing on the Internet"

August 23, 2018

5.0

Pros

I downloaded Hunter probably 5 years ago and use it weekly. If anyone is job searching, lead sourcing, or just simply trying to find a contact's missing email address Hunter is the best possible tool for the job.

Cons

I most often use their Google extension to find emails for my sales lists and I wish the extension was more robust - i.e. being able to save contacts or form lists within the tool itself.

### "Hunter was really great before until LinkedIn remove it from integration tools"

August 13, 2018

4.0

Pros

When I started lead generation on LinkedIn before,their integrated with them was very helpful in getting emails of LinkedIn users until LinkedIn stop it already. Anyhow, it still easier to get email from websites if you use to this tool. I still use it to get email from certain blogs and websites though up to now.

Cons

The tool is really great it finding emails and testing if they are valid or not.

### "One of the best applications I used"

March 14, 2022

5.0

When I found Hunter, I thought it was like the other similar programs. But when I began to use it even the free version was helped me a lot in my works. Its interface is very simple and fast to use.

Pros

I like the different ways to search, find or verify the emails. If you know the domain you can use this data to find emails from this domain. Or if you have an email but you aren't sure if it is valid then you can check it by using Hunter's Verifier tool.

Cons

When I was working on the companies of Russia and Japan I noticed that the email database of Hunter isn't sufficient for our needs.

### "Great for lead generation"

December 20, 2019

5.0

Overall it's fantastic. Even though some tweaks could be made it's still an essential tool for me.

Pros

The bulk tools available for matching a lot of emails at once.

Cons

I don't like that the bulk tools only include emails already in the database. It would be nice if there was an option to do live searches in bulk the same as if it was being done one-by-one. It would also be nice to be able to combine bulk searches with bulk verification so that I can complete it all in one step. I spoke with support about this and they explained it would increase the task time significantly. I can understand that but when I'm doing that much lead generation I'm happy to wait a little longer for better data.

Reason for choosing Hunter

Best value for the cost. Other tools are way too expensive.

### "Top website email finder"

October 6, 2021

5.0

Pros

As well as a website, there's also a handy extension for browsers. Does what it says on the tin and returns results without fuss.

Cons

Doesn't always return email addresses of websites, if it does, its not always the one you were looking for. But still great for the price

Response from Hunter

December 23, 2021

Hi Bradley, Samara here from Hunter. Thanks so much for your thoughtful review! Since our method for getting emails is to scour the web for publicly available email addresses, if we cannot find emails for a specific professional on the web, we cannot return a result. This allows having full data transparency while constantly updating the emails found. More information can be found on Our Data page: https://hunter.io/our-data. There are also two possible reasons why we don't return a result for a specific person: Hunter doesn't have any data related to the domain name that is searched Or the algorithm couldn't find a relevant result. In this case, our blog article might also be helpful for other ways to find emails: https://hunter.io/blog/b2b-lead-generation-strategies/. Thank you again for sharing your experience with Hunter! Please don't hesitate to reach out to our Support team at contact@hunter.io if you have any ques

### "Great way to get emails quickly! "

January 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

It allows you to get email addresses quickly without having to search the entire site. Saves time by not going to all the different landing pages, plus you get 100 free per month! Loads quickly and very easy to use.

Cons

The data is incorrect sometimes, i.e wrong email address. Also sometimes the email is on the site and the crawler can't find it.

### "This service and support is absolutely awesome. Use it!"

February 27, 2018

5.0

Helped me find and verify emails from lead lists I had created for all my sales people and appointment setters.

Pros

The API is really easy to use. The data returned is extremely easy to decipher. It works very well with Zapier. I've never had an issue or an error and I'm an amateur when it comes to connect that stuff up. The customer support is incredible as well. Prompt responses and always helpful. Never dismissive. I will be using this service for a long time.

Cons

None. They rock! I've really had no issue what so ever with them. Only thing I would like to see is the ability to download all API queries via .CSV for my records, but that really isn't impacting my work. It's just a nice to have to look and throw away.

### "Amazing Email Campaign & Leads Management Tool"

January 16, 2021

5.0

Amazing experience with Hunter would like to see integrations with more tools.

Pros

I love the UI-UX and Leads Management feature & EMail campaigns Follow-ups with the EMail verifier tool that confirms the credibility

Cons

Would love to see LinkedIn email finder features again with save lead option directly in the CRM or add Linkedin Campaigns to send messages to LinkedIn connections.

September 9, 2021

Happy Hunter user in hunting emails.

Pros

It's just uploading the first name, last name, company domain & company name, Hunter will give us email addresses of those prospects. Bulk uploading feature saves a lot of time.

Cons

Accuracy of email addresses are average. They can work on to improve that.

September 24, 2021

Hey there, Samara here from Hunter! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. In case it helps, we do have an Email Verifier to verify the emails. I would recommend verifying your emails with our Email Verifier tool (https://hunter.io/verify) and the Bulk Email Verifier tool (https://hunter.io/bulk-verifications) so that you can know if the emails are valid or not beforehand. Our Free and paid plans also come with a number of verification requests that you can use for just that. If you have any other questions on verifying emails to check for accuracy or if we can help with anything else, please don't hesitate to reach out to our Success team at contact@hunter.io. Thanks again, we appreciate you!

Thanks for sharing your feedback with us, Diogo! I'm sorry that you consider our pricing to be too expensive as we currently offer one of the most competitive pricing in our industry and include a free plan (75 credits p/month) that is one of the most generous ones among our competitors. As a small bootstrapped business we've created our pricing to be interesting for our users and sustainable on our end: every year we also include additional free functionalities available to all accounts, (for example Campaigns). If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us directly at contact@hunter.io.

I've used this for cold emailing and it finds leads as well as any software, even the free version which I use. Excellent and quick interface.

Sometimes it can't find a lead even when the email is printed on the footer. Not sure why this would be missed but other apps miss this as well somehow.
