Alore vs Woodpecker (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Alore if

• Fits if you want warm-up and sending from one low-priced tool
• Works for small senders under 5 domains and 5,000 emails a month

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you send more than 5,000 emails a month, as Starter stops there and Professional is $40
• Skip it if you want a trial, because none is stated
• Watch out: the page shows two price sets and the lower one is only read as annual
• Watch out: the home page says the email warmer is coming soon while the plans list it
• Pricey if you want done-for-you outreach, as Grow and Scale have no published price

Pick Woodpecker if

• Fits if you want the whole team on one account with no seat fees
• Works for small senders starting at $35 a month for 500 contacted prospects

Look elsewhere if

• Pricey if you want LinkedIn too, at $29 a month for each LinkedIn account
• Tight if you contact the same person in two campaigns, as each one counts toward the limit
• Skip it if you need the API or CRM sync and don't want a $20 a month add-on
• Watch out: warm-ups past the plan's 2 cost $5 per email account a month
• Pricey if you're an agency, at $27 a month per active client plus $5 each for white labeling

Alore

• The pricing page shows two price sets without labeling them; the lower is read as annual because it is 20% below the other.
• The homepage marks the email warmer card 'Coming soon', though pricing and plans list warmup.
• Grow and Scale are sold through sales with no published price.
• No free plan or free trial is stated on the pricing page.

Woodpecker

• A prospect counts once a month per campaign, but contacting the same person in two campaigns counts twice toward the limit.
• The API, webhooks, MCP and the HubSpot and Pipedrive syncs are a $20 a month add-on rather than part of the plan.
• LinkedIn steps cost $29 a month per connected LinkedIn account, and warm-ups beyond the plan's allowance cost $5 per email account a month.
• The Agency Panel costs $27 a month per active client, plus $5 per client for white labeling.
