NeverBounce is a suite of email verification tools and service, acquired by DiscoverOrg (now ZoomInfo) in 2019. NeverBounce is a ZoomInfo company.
Hunter.io is very well suited for any sales rep who is building out lists of contacts for email outreach, or for marketer's looking to reach out to PR and marketing contacts for link building campaigns. The tool is a great free option if you are doing targeted, 1:1 personalized outreach and you need a few contacts. The tool can be expensive if you are needing to reach thousands of people. A paid version of Hunter.io is not a great fit if you already pay for another list building source such as Data.com or Discover.Org.
NeverBounce a ZoomInfo company comes as a part of ZoomInfo subscription and companies can separately go for it. It is well suited for those companies that use ZoomInfo for prospecting and should upgrade to the package that contains NeverBounce a ZoomInfo company. It may be less suited for companies that dont do outbound marketing (new startups)
Provides email domains very well. While some companies have a different domain for their "info@xyz.com", Hunter is able to find the domain that is being used by individuals at the company.
For American contacts in particular it is very good at finding personal phone numbers.
Helps to enrich the contacts that might be in a company by providing a confirmed list of employees.
As an extra - I really like how easy it is to use. You can input the contacts name and copy-paste from the chrome extension quickly and easily. This saves a load of time when you are trying to find the right address.
There have been times when I've search Hunter for an address on a website and it came back with no results. Then If I search the site I've often found an email address or two. So I'm curious why it wasn't able to find it with the tool, even when I could on my own?
I'm not sure what the reasons were exactly why LinkedIn ordered the cease and desist, but I had hoped they two companies could come to terms or that at the least LinkedIn would acquire Hunter. But alas, it's not been the case.
NeverBounce is a good tool, but many products execute the same thing on the market - validating email data. The customer support with NeverBounce is not as good as other tools, but as there is rarely a need to use customer support, it is not a massive issue to use the tool.
When I needed support, I reached out to them and they were very helpful. They even offered me a promo code for my first purchase, which was nice to have
Hunter is a much more user-friendly version of Clearbit. I personally also find it to be more accurate than Clearbit. With Clearbit it felt like too many clicks to get to the information that you wanted. With Hunter, it is a simple copy - paste - click, to get the information you need. The additional list of contacts it provides and the verification source is also more readable.
I use both Neverbounce and Bouncer, and both solutions have very similar performance. NeverBounce is probably a slightly more expensive solution than Bouncer, but its performance is good, and you can validate email data quickly with little or no fuss, which is why we use it as an agency.
