|---|---|---|
| Value for money | AFive people share the Email plan, which has unlimited users: $55 a month billed yearly for 50,000 emails, $11 a head, a third of the cheaper quarter. LinkedIn, calls and SMS are another story: Multichannel is $87 per user billed yearly, in this category's dearest tenth. | BUsers are free, but Starter's 1,000 contacts and 5,000 emails won't carry five people, so the team plan is Growth: $99 a month billed monthly, $19.80 a head. That's inside the cheaper quarter, just over the A line, with LinkedIn included. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan you can send from, since Freemium can't launch campaigns. The 14-day Multichannel trial needs no card and gives 200 credits and 50 emails a day, but leaves out lemwarm and calling. | DNo free plan, and the 14-day trial needs a card. QuickMail says no paid plan starts when the trial ends, which is fair, but a card up front still puts it at D on our scale. |
| Features | BThe whole job: emails, LinkedIn invites, messages and voice notes, calls, SMS and WhatsApp in one sequence, with conditions and an automatic stop on a reply. Warm-up, a 650M-lead database and one inbox for every channel sit alongside. | BThe whole job: email plus LinkedIn requests, messages, InMail and voice messages in one sequence, replies from both in one inbox, inbox rotation, AI rewording and warm-up through MailFlow. Its deliverability AI swaps weak inboxes out for you. |

QuickMail
