Nothing Short of a Shot in the Arm for Small Businesses!

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Flexibility at Your Fingertips to Help Break Barriers to Entry Hunter helps the user get access to information about corporates which is exactly what my team needs to make contacts and network at appropriate levels. It helps you automate your outreach in a thoroughly professional matter. Back-end support is very good too and will give a user the confidence and trust that are the cornerstone of all good partnerships.

Pros

  • Heaps of data are available here
  • Automation of your communication
  • Planning communication campaigns
  • Working on cold mail

Cons

  • It would be great to have mail tracking software on the job so that the communications team can keep track of the dialogue

Likelihood to Recommend

Hunter is a good shot in the arm for small companies which need to work relentlessly for results. It helps take a huge load off one's mind.

Hunter is helping me win new clients 24/7

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am using Hunter to find, verify email addresses and perform campaigns. Cold emails for finding clients is not an easy task, and Hunter is helping me a lot. Not a perfect match every time for every contact, but I'm not perfect either. If you need an all-in-one solution for cold emailing, don't hesitate and run around looking for something better. Try it for one month. You won't regret it. I know I didn't.

Pros

  • Cold emailing
  • Finding emails from website domains
  • Email Verifier

Cons

  • Keep up the good work!
  • Maybe price, but that you will hear from everyone for everything

Likelihood to Recommend

I'm using Hunter for finding clients, cold emailing, finding emails from domains, and verifying emails. I only need this and Ahrefs. Nothing else.

Vetted Review

I use Hunter every single day. If you want to be more successful, you should too.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I've been using Hunter Starter Plan for email verification, finding and saving new leads, cold email marketing campaigns for ~9 months. Their training, support, newsletters and YouTube channel are very helpful in learning how to use the full power of their services. I very much enjoy their system for making personalized, automated email campaigns as verified, effective and efficient as possible. I completely recommend their free service, but their Starter Plan is what I'm currently using and enjoy.

Pros

  • Automated Cold Email Marketing Campaigns
  • Email verification
  • Finding new leads and saving

Cons

  • Don't have any

Likelihood to Recommend

Great for email verification. Great for finding and saving new leads. Excels at cold email marketing campaigns. Not appropriate for cold calling lists. Not appropriate for internal company emailing or chatting.

Couldn't have asked for more

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Hunter to get contact information about the companies that I want to get a collaboration with.

Pros

  • Get e-mail information
  • Fast, detailed and valid contact information
  • They come up with an immediate solution when I have a problem

Cons

  • They may offer more free inquiry quotas.
  • They may include SMEs' information
  • No more for now.

Likelihood to Recommend

A great place for reaching information of potential customers. Also, the support team immediately responds to your inquiries, and all team members are so kind. Couldn't have asked for more

Fast way to collect leads but can be innacurate

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I've been using Hunter for quite a while now. The product has improved vastly since I picked it up.

It's been a great help but there are definitely points that can be improved. For example, [I feel] email verification is really off. Verified email addresses can usually be non-existent. I usually have to use a second tool to verify the email addresses that Hunter suggests. Other than that, being able to instantly find contact info through the [Google] Chrome extension is a huge time saver despite the inaccuracy of the verification part.

Pros

  • Great [Google] Chrome extension
  • Easily finds contact information

Cons

  • [I feel the] email verification can be vastly imroved
  • Not clear how credits are used

Likelihood to Recommend

There isn't a faster tool out there as far as I know. I usually suggest Hunter to new hires and interns but always tell them to be wary of the legitimacy of the results.

Hunter is Great!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

When trying to find emails for prospectives at target accounts for our cold outreach, we typically turn to Hunter when our other resources do not present us with the data, or we find that our emails have been bouncing at a high rate. It is beneficial to spread the word.

Pros

  • Plugin
  • Ease of Use

Cons

  • Website
  • Company #'s

Likelihood to Recommend

Whenever you are trying to get in touch with someone, without prior contact, Hunter is the best way to find their email accurately.

Hunter: A Necessary Last Resort

Rating: 10 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Hunter is used by our sales department to verify and search for email addresses of prospects. It's extremely insightful when our research doesn't yield any contacts or emails, and it's used somewhat as a last resort. That being said, it's very much appreciated and beneficial to our team.

Pros

  • Pull up emails otherwise unable to be found.
  • Occasionally provides a full name and phone number.

Cons

  • Perhaps a feature that allows you to see if only generic emails are found i.e. support@, info@, etc.
  • It could improve not pulling up old emails for companies that aren't utilized anymore.

Likelihood to Recommend

When our sales team can't find an email for a contact/company with our other software, we utilize Hunter and rely on it fairly heavily.

A good investment with some cons

Rating: 7 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Hunter is used within the sales department only. It hasn't been used in any other departments. It generally addresses the problem of lead generation, bulk mailing ID finding and verification of them. Hunter is widely used by the organisational sales and marketing team to generate and deliver a good amount of data in terms of E-mail ID.

Pros

  • E-mail finding.
  • E-Mail verification.

Cons

  • Cost must be less.
  • Emailing limitations like only for G-Suits are valid.

Likelihood to Recommend

The main points where Hunter is well recommended are:

1. Mass mail ID finding of the particular domains.

2. One by one email ID finding.

3. Bulk mailing up to 400 email IDs a day by your G suit account.

The main points where hunter is less recommended:

1. The price of the tool which is much higher than other tools with same features.

2. The limit of the mailing is less, only 400 a day.

3. The accuracy of correct email ids is less.

4. Only G suit is used.

A must-have for every account executive and BDR

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am a top regional seller at a national media vendor. Individual sellers (not on the management level or the support level) use Hunter in order to properly identify and verify email addresses of prospective customers. Hunter significantly facilitates the ability of our sellers to contact prospective clients in order to establish initial contact and relationships.

Pros

  • Provides an accurate list of email addresses for users at target domains.
  • It is able to identify e-mail addresses for almost every website. It's rare when a website does not have email addresses associated.
  • Even if an email is not previously identified, Hunter can be used to verify the address as long as you are able to discern the email format (ex: first.last).

Cons

  • Hunter is only as valuable as the information it is able to scrape from the internet. If a company has not listed any email addresses online, then Hunter is not going to be able to find it.
  • Sometimes Hunter is only able to identify non-personal-specific email addresses (ex: info @, support@, etc.). This makes it difficult to identify personnel emails
  • Sometimes companies will have different email domains that Hunter is not able to correlate. For example, when searching for an email address at Lead.com, Hunter is not able to point to ParentCompany.com email addresses that would be more useful.

Likelihood to Recommend

Hunter is a great tool for anyone in sales, especially if your job involves hunting accounts. Hunter does a great job of providing the proper email format (ex: first + last name @ website.com) for the vast majority (90%+) of target websites. The verify function is also invaluable as it allows sellers to confirm a lead's email address, which saves time and improves efficiencies.
