### "Our experience using Uplead for prospectring and lead genaration "

May 19, 2022

5.0

High-quality, targeted and verified lead generation was a challenge for us but UpLead has made this a very easy task with even better quality results than we anticipated.

Pros

UpLead provides the best platform for quality lead generation and prospecting

Cons

Wish UpLead can make the possibility of switching plans more flexible than it currently is

### "It's User-friendly Lead Generation Software"

July 17, 2021

5.0

As part of the sales team, I need quality leads such as business emails and phone numbers for cold calling, cold emailing every day, and Uplead never disappointed me. I have been using it for more than a year, which helps me achieve my monthly target. My overall experience is excellent. However, all other members of our sales team are using it.

Pros

Uplead is very straightforward to use. It allows you to create a filtered view of leads based on the industry, job title (including particular ones), company, region. It saves a lot of time of mine by providing the exact leads I'm looking for. The quality of the leads is pretty accurate, and it is about as high as I have found to be the case with much more expensive systems. So, I'm happy with the percentage of the accuracy. The email verification system is impressive. My whole team likes it.

Cons

Uplead could be more affordable for small businesses. However, it's relatively inexpensive compared to its competitor. Not much, normal glitches. Some fields do not erase when you clear your search.

We used Zoominfo before Uplead for lead generation. The reason for switching from Zoominfo is simply the cost and lead quality. I want to recommend Uplead to those in the sales field looking for high-quality leads with a minimum budget.

### "Completely Disappointed"

January 1, 2024

1.0

I reached out and complained to management they refused to speak to me and would not call me back despite several emails to customer service and to company leadership.

Pros

Not much, presales as u can imagine was amazing but empty and deceptive promises.

Cons

Lead quality is terrible. Stale leads. Customer service would not talk to me once they realized I was unhappy and refused to consider refunding me despite the fact that I used it for less than 2 days overall a terrible experience.

### "Seems amazing, but ends of being just ok"

March 15, 2022

4.0

Ok. You get what you pay for. I paid $600 for 2,000 mobile leads in one month. And they needed to be cleaned (outdated/spamtrap emails removed). That means that really, I didn't get 2,000 leads, but 1,500.

Pros

easy interface, easy export, decent support for being a small company

Cons

This provider looked exciting because you get access to prospects' mobile phones. But then when I went to create personas (e.g. CEOs in software tech, directors in California with a business size of 100 or smaller, for example), there ended up being A LOT less leads than you'd expect. For example, I was able to extract 750 tech leads and 450 arts/museums leads with mobile phones available. Beyond this small number, niche leads with mobile don't really exist in Uplead. And they tend to come from larger co's. Another problem could be that that these mobile phone leads must be getting exponential spam because their mobiles are listed on the lead gen websites, including this one! Uplead has a $600 per month plan, which seems amazing, where you can download 2,000 leads. But due to the problems mentioned above, it's not so great. Add to this the fact that leads start to go bad after a couple weeks, so this site is not useful for many small businesses. Then finally, their sales guy is trying to tell me that they have an amazingly clean database, where the emails are vastly updated, and that I wouldn't need my own data cleaning system (e.g. zerobounce, is the best known). Not true. My own data cleaning system found problems with 25% of their best data. That is LAME, right?

### "Great software and just as good, if not better than the higher priced competitors"

November 8, 2020

5.0

Excellent, great customer service and have a great experience so far ; I have gained 7 new clients in the 6 months I have had it!

Pros

Ease of use with intuitive menus; price! As well, they do not lock you in for a long period of time; they do not lock you into a long contract, but offer month to month. This is great for me because I can stop at anytime once I've gained a few customers and need to concentrate on fulling orders, I don't have to pay for a tool I'm currently not using.

Cons

From my experience, 95% of the data is correct, but like with any other software, it can't keep up with a sudden firing or resignation, but it is usually updated no later than two days! Not a big issue and no other issues with the software

### "Data is old"

November 17, 2020

2.0

Frustrating. Seemed promising at first, but very disappointed with accuracy of the data.

Pros

It's easy to use. They were good about letting me use the software before I started my subscription. Email verification.

Cons

Data simply is not very good. I've used several database subscription tools and I decided to give this a try because of its capabilities for filtering lists. Unfortunately most of the data was so old I had to go through each listing just to see if the company was still in business. The email verification is nice but in a list of 100 contacts I'm getting maybe 20 valid contacts. I've had it for 2 months and have over 500 leads I can download, but I can't find enough good leads to get close to using them. Also just found out if I cancel they will cut me off without allowing me to finish out my subscription.

I liked that Uplead offered the technology filters. Turns out they don't really work that well. I hope they can figure it out because it would be great.

### "Awesome Lead Generation Software "

August 18, 2020

5.0

Finding leads (contact information - Email address and phone numbers) for M&A opportunities in the tech sector.

Pros

It is easy to use and relatively inexpensive. The quality of the leads is about 90% accurate and it is about as high as we have found to be the case with much more expensive systems .

Cons

Nothing - we were very satisfied and we have been a user for more than 6 months now.

Switched from

Cost simply. The quality seems about the same , and the functionalities that Zoominfo has were not very important to us.

### "Incredible Tool"

November 3, 2020

5.0

UpLead is the best of the best for email and contact information verification. The user interface is amazing, the search tool is extremely powerful, and it allows very precise searches, and the ability to pinpoint exactly what I'm looking for every time. Overall, it's amazing, and it's my daily driver for my email campaigns, thank you UpLead!!

Pros

Extremely accurate email addresses with zero bounces, very easy to use, and super powerful search features that allow me to pinpoint exact criteria and people that I need for my campaigns. Overall, the best of the best for this type of tool.

Cons

Wish it was cheaper, but you get what you pay for, and this is by far the best, so it's worth the money.

### "Fab lead qualification solution that saves time, money and is great value!"

August 19, 2020

5.0

Fantastic customer engagement and onboarding experience. Free usage and awareness training given. Plus the ability to scale up and down the number of credits you pay for on a monthly usage basis, makes it a clear winner against the competitors that want you to pay upfront for an annual subscription.

Pros

The product is web based, easy to use and intuitive. The easiest way to search for potential leads, use the domain name and put it into the company url search.

Cons

Very little. The database is not as comprehensive as some of its competitors, but this is balanced by the totally inexpensive costs of the solution. It gives you a good starting point in most cases.

### "Great prospecting tool"

August 19, 2020

5.0

Coming into this position I did not have enough corporate contacts and accounts. I essentially had to sweep the market and start from scratch. I have been able to get several contacts during a short period of time to help get things moving quickly.

Pros

Obviously I like all of the leads that I get from using the software! My favorite thing to do is to be able to drill down into the contacts within the company by title so I can save time to get to the best possible contact. My success rate of getting the accurate contact has skyrocketed.

Cons

I wish the phone numbers were better. They are typically for the corporate office, but if they can be more localized to that contact then I think it would be much better. You never know if an email is just going to junk or getting ignored.

I like how you can norrow down your search and hone into the specific company and roles. This makes life so simple. I was able to reach out to potential clients effectively in a matter of minutes.

Pros

Very easy to use and navigate.One or 2 clicks and you have a new contact.

Cons

Some companies could not be found and that was friustrating along with not being able to get emails addresses.

I was looking for new leads with the correct contact information. UpLead provided those.

Pros

UpLead is very easy to use. The dashboard is user friendly and intuitive. The leads were accurate and the cost per lead was low when compared to others offering a similar service.

Cons

There was nothing I didn't like about UpLead. It was easy to use and integrated directly to our CRM.

Uplead has provided me with data that would have taken hours to find on my own. They also give you insight into business info that you would have never known before.

Pros

I really enjoy how organized and accurate the information is. Time is money, so having these kinds of leads at your fingertips makes doing my job easier.

Cons

May 4, 2018

4.0

Pros

As an active marketing firm, we really appreciate the 1,000 exports a month at an economic pricing. We also had 95% accuracy with email addresses on our last email blast. The interface is fairly easy to use and support is lightning fast. Very helpful and willing to jump on demo's as needed.

Cons

Limited direct dials, not as many contacts as ZoomInfo, limited number of security vendors when doing competitive searches which is important to us.
