Apollo.io vs. Waalaxy

The automatic email feature is extremely helpful for quickly contacting more potential clients. It is user-friendly and easy to access all buttons, which helps you navigate the task efficiently. It could greatly help to acquire more clients for a project to be successful. I cannot see anything less appropriate for me to achieve the goal I am aiming for.

waalaxy is a good tool for automating activity on linkedin, creating contacts that will then have to be developed directly by you, but it speeds up the initial steps and skims contacts very quickly (if the bot sends 20 requests a day and 15 percent of people accept the link, you already know who to continue conversations with and who to leave alone).The only note is the scattered interface compared to others with a simpler and more direct ux.Maybe it's personal taste, because it continues to get a lot of positive feedback from many users.

Incentivized

• Consolidates tool and packs in a lot of functionality
• Keeps up with the industry trends for prospecting and data enrichment
• Offers the basics you need to get going
• Account mapping to Salesforce - reps can prospect in Apollo and can easily toggle on views to only see their own accounts.

Incentivized

• Automation: request for connection at random times to simulate human intervention
• automation: email link request to increase the maximum limit of link requests (before August 2022, linkedin policy changed message policies)
• automation: email search on linkedin

Incentivized

• I thought the AI email-generating function was weak. The email sounded way too robotic.
• I wish there were a split-screen option that allowed me to view my lists and leads simultaneously.
• I wish putting contacts into lists wouldn't cost any credits.

Incentivized

• needs to improve the interface to make it faster to use the platform, especially for those who do not always use all the functions and do not remember them. Navigating through the menus becomes time-consuming
• choice of profile "warming" type to avoid linkedin ban. Waalaxy seems less careful than other platforms to use automations with caution, at least in the beginning (you can't go from zero to 20 link requests a day because you risk banning. It's not certain but you risk it)

Generally quite a reliable tool with decent data quality/availability. Pricing works well for our team and our use case

è una piattaforma solida e aggiornata, ma ha un difetto che non mi piace ed è che personalmente non mi piace l'interfaccia per usarla. Questo è l'unico difetto e penso che sia soggettivo.

Apollo.io has an amazing amount of features. It's great being able to complete so many tasks in one space but it's also overwhelming. It took me a few days to work through all of the options when searching for a company or person. After a few days it started to provide companies for me which was confusing before I understood what was happening. At first, I was also confused about what a "sequence" was so maybe some of the jargon can be confusing. I think with time I will become more comfortable once I understand all of the options offered.

Incentivized

it has a lot of functions, I haven't tried them all, but when I looked for something I found the interface scattered in menus and I didn't immediately find what I was looking for, this can also be frustrating because there are some functions that you rarely use so you forget where the buttons and menu are and so a more straightforward visual approach would be preferable even for those who are not new to the tool

The team wants to solve probelms, but we are finding that they don't know how to solve the more technical issues quickly. I suspect that they don't have a mature process for escalations, and they don't have a usable knowledge base article repository. They seems to push emails around to let us know that people are working on the issues to find solutions, but this takes weeks and oftentimes still leaves us without a resolution.

Incentivized

Apollo.io has all features of prospecting, outreach automation including email sequences, campaign tracking, lead scoring, and analytics in one interface which enables sales persons to manage their entire sales funnel without having any other extra tool. Another benefit is for pricing related which has been understand from our management team.

Waalaxy works well and has been on the market for quite some time; it is a solid product. For my very personal use judgment, I don't like to waste time looking for functions in menus-I use too many saas to waste time and remember where I find functions.Learning curve and immediate usability are key for me, so I was better off with Closely which has a much better UX.Maybe it's my problem and you will be just as well off as many others, you just have to try both because they have the free version

Incentivized

• Increased # of booked meetings from outbound email outreach.
• Our sales team's productivity has improved when prospecting/doing outreach (which has a monetary value, given our salaried status). This makes us more productive, enabling us to accomplish more and reach a greater number of people in a day.
• We've only recently implemented this, so we're still waiting to close, but leads are on their way to doing so.

Incentivized

• 20 requests per day15% links accepted (depends on your message/strategy and industry, not the tool)
• return on investment is certain if you don't think automation can do it all: you have to work the contacts generated by waalaxy
