How we grade them
| 2.0GPAReply.ioFair | 2.2GPAYeswareFair | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CNo price is on record: Reply's pricing page answered our reader with a bot check, so there's no per-head figure for a team of five to set against the category's $40 middle. With nothing published, it sits at C. Usage is also metered by active contacts each month. | CPro's 20 campaign recipients a month won't do for outreach, so five people need Premium: $35 a seat billed annually, $35 a head. That's just above the cheaper quarter's $32.50. Salesforce sync needs Enterprise at $65 a seat. |
| Free plan and trial | FNothing free is on record. With the pricing pages behind a bot check, we couldn't confirm a free plan or a trial, and an unconfirmed trial can't earn a grade. | CThere's a free plan, but it tracks only emails sent in the last 24 hours and allows 10 campaign recipients a month. The 14-day trial needs no card. |
| Features | BThe whole job: sequences mixing email, LinkedIn, calls, SMS, WhatsApp and tasks, with A/B variants per step and holiday calendars. Jason AI SDR answers common questions and nudges quiet leads, on autopilot or with approval. Contact search and validation use credits. | CTracking of opens, links and attachments, templates, a scheduler, and campaigns mixing emails, call reminders and LinkedIn InMails that stop on a reply or booking. A smaller job than cold outreach at volume: it sends from your own mailbox, and full campaigns start at Premium. |
| Ease of use | CNo App Store rating on record. There's real setup: email and LinkedIn accounts to connect, the LinkedIn side through a browser extension, and playbooks and knowledge bases if you want Jason writing for you. | BNo App Store rating on record, but it's an add-on to the Gmail or Outlook you already use, so tracking starts on your next email with nothing to build first. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb plus a browser extension, with an API, an MCP server and a command-line tool for builders. n8n is the only named integration on record, which is thin next to rivals. No phone or desktop app. | CGmail in Chrome, or Outlook 2016 and later and Outlook on the web, and Yesware says there's no mobile app. Salesforce, Sales Navigator, Zoom, Teams, RingCentral and DocSend connect to it. |
| Best for | multichannel sequences with an AI SDR | email tracking with simple campaigns on top |
