### "ContactOut"

August 2, 2025

4.0

Very positive and well priced for what it offers. Probably best to be sued in conjunction with other providers

Pros

Simple to use and good breadth of data. Vey easy set up and allows quick access to contact details when needed

Cons

data , like all other providers, is patchy and there are too many personal details rather than business.

### "easy and interactive software to use"

February 10, 2022

5.0

Overall, it's been a positive experience using the software, I'm getting results I'm looking for almost every time I've used it. Proving to be an indispensable service in my day-to-day work. Once I started using it, I don't replace it with any other.

Pros

what I like most about this software is the possibility of getting the data I need with reliability of results.

Cons

Needing to disable the option for the software to keep opening by itself.

It has a nice search interface to find people through LI.

### "Excellent for finding contacts"

April 5, 2024

5.0

It's affordable, easy to use, and effective.

Pros

I work in marketing, and it's not uncommon for advertising and partnerships managers to change overnight. I'm often left with ongoing campaigns and no responsive contacts. I used to try and connect with the new managers on LinkedIn or try other company contacts but it took forever to get an answer. Now I just email and text them, and everything is much faster. The integrations with Salesforce, Hubspot, and Zapier come in handy as well.

Cons

I wish it covered Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok

### "Great tool, the new interface is amazing"

February 24, 2022

5.0

Pros

It works! Most leads can be enriched using the tool, specially for emails. The new interface also makes it much more pleasant to use - and makes me feel like its a more "professional" tool

Cons

Having to use an extra credit to find the phone number is annoying.

April 19, 2023

4.0

Pros

ContactOut is an excellent source of email addresses and phone numbers for our marketing operations. I like how precise the email addresses and phone numbers they provide, that we can simply obtain the contact information we need and connect with potential leads using this.

Cons

Some of the contact information is not updated, and have limited credentials. But, still this platform is very beneficial for us.
