5 Best Dropcontact Alternatives

logo dropcontact

DropContact is an RGPD compliant B2B email finder because the solution doesn't store any data. In real time and using algorithms, dropcontact retrieves data, tests and verifies it in order to provide it to their customers. To launch the search and make it work, Dropcontact's robots need a first name, a last name and the company's website to search and find the prospect's e-mail address. In general, only 60-75% of prospect files are enriched with Dropcontact.

Dropcontact features :

  • Simple search only to enrich essential contact information

  • API key enabling Dropcontact to be integrated with other tools such as Captain Data, Phantombuster, Lobster, Lemlist, Waalaxy, La Growth Machine, Leadjet...

  • Email verifier

Dropcontact charges by the number of searches performed in a month, not by the number of emails found or enriched. This billing technique isn't always very fair, and you may end up spending money without even having obtained a lead.

  • Also note that it deletes credits already paid carried over from one month to the next if you stop your subscription.

Emelia, the Best Dropcontact Alternative

Emelia Banner

Since 2021, Emelia has been developing itself as THE cold-emailing platform that's accessible in every way, aiming to make cold-emailing easy to use for everyone at an unbeatable price. When all other cold-emailing solutions were very expensive, and only allowed you to connect one email box (with each additional email box you had to pay for out of your own pocket), Emelia.io also included multi-sender, an essential feature for ensuring the deliverability of your campaigns.

Emelia.io presents itself as the most honest and transparent solution on the market, with the ambition of simplifying your B2B prospecting as much as possible at prices accessible to all, Emelia is constantly working to evolve its platform, to offer you the best cold email features with its email finder, Linkedin Sales Navigator scraper, email warmup and multi-sender.

Did you know that Emelia only deducts your credits when it actually finds the prospect's email address?

This is a key differentiator between Emelia and many other email finders. Unlike other services (as seen with Dropcontact above) that charge per search. Because, yes, we don't consider it right to charge you a credit for a result you don't get! Isn't logic?

Usually, concurrent email finder finds between 30% and 70% of the addresses on the list, depending on the type of list = that's a lot of potential lost credits.

Emelia.io price comparison with Dropcontact Email Finder pricing

  • 1000 searches : $19 (versus $29 for Dropcontact)

  • 10k searches : $99 (versus $179 for Dropcontact)

  • 100k searches : $449 (versus $799 for Dropcontact)

So, if we compare Emelia.io to Dropcontact, the cost of Emelia's email finder is 19$ per 1000 credits and Dropcontact's cost is 29$ per 1000 credits. A significant price difference.

With Dropcontact, if you import a list of 2,000 and only 900 are found, for example, you'll see your credit balance drop by 2,000. With Emelia, if you import a list of 2000 and 900 emails are found, you can keep your remaining 1100 credits to find other new prospects!

The quality of the emails found is the second big difference. No two email finders achieve the same results, depending on the techniques they use. Emelia's ability to guarantee high-quality emails is due to the fact that it uses both email finder technology and data from its customers' previous cold emailing campaigns.

As you can see, the email addresses found by Emelia are 100% reliable, which is the number 1 rule for good deliverability of your mailboxes. In fact, a high bounce rate will damage the reputation of your email address and risk reducing the number of your emails arriving in the main inbox of your potential future customers. Emelia email finder benefits in a few words:

  • Transparent, lower rates

  • Credits debited only if successful

  • Superior email address quality

  • Integration with your cold-emailing tool

  • Presence of a LinkedIn Sales Navigator scrapper

  • Reactive customer support, provided directly by the founders.

  • ALL-IN-ONE cold emailing platform (from email finder to campaign dispatch)
