Pricing: Saleshandy vs Apollo

Saleshandy uses flat-rate pricing. Starter is $25/mo for 6,000 emails. Pro is $69/mo for 150,000 emails.

Scale is $139/mo for 240,000 emails with white-label. No per-seat charges. Apollo has a free plan with 900 credits.

Basic is $49/user/mo. Professional is $79/user/mo with a dialer. Organization is $149/user/mo with intent data.

Per-user pricing with a credit system. For teams, Saleshandy is dramatically cheaper. A team of 5 pays $69/mo on Saleshandy Pro versus $395/mo on Apollo Professional.

Apollo justifies the premium with sales intelligence, intent data, and a CRM. The right choice depends on whether you need volume or intelligence.

Lead Databases Compared

Saleshandy has the larger reported database at 852M+ contacts built into the platform. The lead finder includes filters for industry, location, title, and more. It is a solid prospecting tool for building targeted lists.

Apollo has a smaller database at 275M+ contacts but adds a data intelligence layer. Buyer intent signals, job change alerts, technology stack filters, and company alerts make Apollo more than a contact database. It is a sales intelligence platform.

For raw contact volume, Saleshandy wins. For targeted prospecting with intent-based prioritization, Apollo wins. The databases serve different purposes.

Deliverability and Infrastructure

Neither Saleshandy nor Apollo offers dedicated IPs on any plan. Both run on shared infrastructure. Saleshandy includes email verification and TrulyInbox for warmup.

Apollo includes verification through credits and basic warmup. Saleshandy is more focused on email sending. Its deliverability tooling, while not best-in-class, is more developed than Apollo for cold email specifically.

Apollo treats email as one engagement channel among many. Neither platform includes blacklist monitoring or inbox placement testing. The shared infrastructure limitation is the same on both.

Why Consider SendKit Instead

Saleshandy and Apollo serve different needs. Saleshandy is for high-volume email. Apollo is for sales intelligence.

If you need intent data and a CRM, Apollo is the right tool. If you need maximum volume per dollar, Saleshandy wins. But if deliverability is the bottleneck, neither offers dedicated IPs.

SendKit includes dedicated IPs and isolated infrastructure on every plan from $99/mo. Flat-rate pricing, built-in dialer, CRM, and all deliverability tools. All standard.

SendKit does not have sales intelligence features like intent data. It has a 700M+ lead database and is built for teams where infrastructure quality is what separates good results from great results.
