Emelia: LinkedIn and cold email, both running in the cloud
The alternative that covers both reasons at once: nothing to install for the campaigns, and email in the same sequence as LinkedIn.
- 1
Best for: LinkedIn and cold email in one cloud planEmelia runs LinkedIn steps and cold emails in the same sequence on its own servers, so your computer can be off from the first plan. You pay for accounts, not people: Start includes 1 LinkedIn account and 3 mailboxes, Grow 3 and 50, Scale 10 accounts and unlimited mailboxes, then $29 per extra account. Warm-up is included; emails and phone numbers, the latter found through a waterfall, are charged in credits only when found. Where Dux-Soup offers more: native links to 6 CRMs on every plan, while Emelia connects one CRM before Scale.

Cloud LinkedIn automation by the seat: Dripify, Expandi
The same billing model as Dux-Soup, one paid seat per LinkedIn account, but in a web app that runs every campaign on the vendor’s servers.
- 1
Best for: A licence per account, in the cloud, with an email stepDripify bills a licence for each LinkedIn account, in dollars: $79 a month on Pro, $99 on Advanced. There is nothing to install, and a sequence can include an email from the Gmail or Outlook mailbox tied to the licence, something Dux-Soup cannot do. Each licence also gets 100 email-finder credits a month. Its trial is shorter (7 days) and HubSpot is its only native CRM; the Dux-Soup vs Dripify page goes through the rest.

- Who it’s for

Best for: One complete plan per account, with InMails and eventsExpandi publishes the price of one plan, Business: $99 a month per LinkedIn account ($79 a month billed yearly), with Agency on quote from 10 seats. Campaigns run in the cloud with a dedicated IP for each account and no browser extension. Its builder chains 20 actions and 11 conditions, from event invitations to group messages, and can add an email step over SMTP. It finds no emails, though, and bills in dollars only.

Many LinkedIn accounts for agencies: HeyReach
Dux-Soup’s flexible seats are its answer for agencies; HeyReach is built around that case from the start.
- 1
Best for: Agencies that rotate many sender accountsHeyReach charges per connected LinkedIn sender: $79 a month on Growth, dropping to $59 each from 10 senders, then fixed packages for agencies with white label from Agency. Everything runs in the cloud, with an API and a free MCP server. Like Dux-Soup, it sends no email itself and hands leads to Instantly, Smartlead or EmailBison, each with its own subscription.

LinkedIn with an email step: Waalaxy, La Growth Machine, lemlist
These three put email in the same campaign as LinkedIn, each on a different pricing unit: the licence, the sender identity or the user.
- 1
Best for: LinkedIn first, with email on the top planWaalaxy is LinkedIn-first like Dux-Soup, and announced on July 1, 2026 that it had become fully cloud-based, its Chrome extension withdrawn. It also has separate euro and dollar grids: Pro costs $19 a month per licence, but cold email sequences only come with Business, at $69. Native CRM sync covers HubSpot and Pipedrive.

- Who it’s for

- 2
Best for: Sequences per sender, LinkedIn and email togetherLa Growth Machine bills each identity, a sender with their LinkedIn account and email addresses: $70 a month on Basic, with 1 address and 250 enriched leads a month, and at most 3 identities before moving up a plan. Its campaigns mix LinkedIn and email steps on the same lead, which Dux-Soup only reaches through another tool.

Best for: Email, LinkedIn and calls, per userlemlist puts LinkedIn on its Multichannel plan, $109 a month per user with 1 LinkedIn account and 5 email senders each, plus call minutes and a large contact database. LinkedIn is connected through its Chrome extension rather than a desktop app, and each extra LinkedIn account means one more user.

Scraping and automations beyond messaging: PhantomBuster
When the real job is pulling lists out of LinkedIn and other sites, more than sending invitations.
- 1
Best for: Extracting leads from LinkedIn and other platformsPhantomBuster’s cloud automations pull data from LinkedIn, Sales Navigator and other sites (15+ platforms in all), and chain into workflows that can include LinkedIn outreach. It is sized by execution hours and email credits rather than accounts: Start costs $69 a month for 20 hours and 500 email credits. A failed email search still costs a credit, and nothing is sent by email.

- $69/month (Start plan · 500 credits)
- Who it’s for
- Growth teams that mainly extract data and run a little LinkedIn outreach on top.
More Dux-Soup alternatives, and how they run
They also automate LinkedIn, and Dux-Soup itself ranks Octopus CRM and Sendpilot among LinkedIn tools in its guides. Their prices and features are not covered here: this page only prices tools whose plans we have read on their own sites.
All of the tools on this page: none asks you to install a desktop app. Emelia, Dripify, Expandi, HeyReach and PhantomBuster run campaigns on their servers, Waalaxy says it is now fully cloud-based, and lemlist connects LinkedIn through its Chrome extension. Linked Helper, by contrast, is a desktop app like STACKED local.
Where they run and what they send. Waalaxy works from a web app in the cloud and adds cold email on its Business plan; Dux-Soup is a desktop app, in the cloud only on STACKED cloud, and stays on LinkedIn. Both bill per LinkedIn account with distinct euro and dollar prices: $19 for Waalaxy Pro, $55 for STACKED local.
