How we grade them
| 2.8GPAlemlistGood | 2.0GPASalesloftFair | |
|---|---|---|
| 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. | CNo price is published: the pricing page leads to a talk-to-sales form and every product is quoted, so there's no per-head figure for a team of five. With nothing published, it sits at C, and products are split by role, so a team may need several. |
| 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. | FNothing free. No free plan and no trial on record; the way in is a sales conversation. |
| 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 and more: cadences of email, call and social steps with automation rules, a dialer and texting, booking from emails, call recording and analysis, deal tracking, Rhythm's ranked to-dos and forecasting. AI agents find buyers and draft emails. |
| Ease of use | CNo App Store rating on record. There's a fair bit to set up, from senders and warm-up to conditional steps and personalized images, so give it a few days before a sequence feels right. | CNo App Store rating on record. It's bought through sales and split into products by role, so expect a proper rollout rather than a quick start. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, plus a Chrome extension that runs lemlist from Gmail and LinkedIn on Multichannel. HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, n8n, Clay and Aircall connect, and there's a public API. No phone or desktop app. | BWeb and an iPhone app, with Salesforce, Sales Navigator, ZoomInfo, Zoom, Google Meet, Zapier, Docusign and Okta. No Android app on record, and no desktop app. |
| Best for | email and LinkedIn in one sequence | sales teams wanting cadences and forecasts together |
