Introduction

ContactOut as an Zoominfo Alternative — a strong Zoominfo competitor at a quarter the cost

ContactOut has over thrice as many personal emails and kick ass G2 ratings compared to ZoomInfo — that’s the basic outline.

We won’t feign ignorance — all data vendors own just a piece of the puzzle when it comes to data collection and ZoomInfo is most definitely a beast in the industry. However, you may have noticed a high bounce back rate with them, which can be infuriating and slow down the hiring process as you’ll need to rely on the age-old guess-and-check method. Therefore, everyone is looking for a trustworthy ZoomInfo alternative.

As an uber simple and easy-to-use Chrome extension plug-in, ContactOut can be used in conjunction with ZoomInfo to give your data accuracy and coverage a hyperboost, meaning infrequent bounce backs for a smoother hiring journey.

P.S: Here's a red flag that you may want to watch out for — ZoomInfo’s auto-renewal clause. You’re going to have to set alarms because you just might end up paying a hernia-inducing $45k roll-over bill and by the sounds of it, you’re never gonna get that back — something to chew on. Good luck relaying that news to your CEO.
