"A solution for extracting professional info online"
4/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

It has an extension for the Chrome Web Browser that lets a user automatically extract email addresses and other contact details from LinkedIn and Github. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

With its free version, the available search credits are only five, which is very much less as compared to other lead extraction software in the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of ContactOut

Hi Pramila,

Thanks for the positive review! Please note, we do not extract data from LinkedIn or GitHub. The Chrome extension is only showing data available in the ContactOut database, or with the find work email, finding a work email in real-time with verification and pinging steps.

As far as the free version, we do not offer a free version anymore. Our former free version is now our free trial version that is offered to a person once for a limited time. If you want to continue to use ContactOut after the free trial is over you will need to purchase a user subscription.

"Mostly useful for finding leads details from LinkedIn"
3.5/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

This app is straightforward to use by adding its chrome extension to the browser; we can start extracting leads details straight from the LinkedIn page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

This app is only available to extract leads details from the LinkedIn and Github profile so far, which is a disliked thing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of ContactOut

Hi Manisha,

Thanks for the positive review. Our chrome extension currently only works with LinkedIn and Github, though we do also have our own search portal that allows you to search the ContactOut database directly. You can find this here: Https://contactout.com/search

"It's the BEST service for getting prospects and candidates email"
5/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

First, its agility. It works really fast. It's flexible, There were times when the contact's email didn't appear and then by typing the company's name it appears. In my searches, it works in over 75% of the cases, so it's been a tremendous help for getting prospects and candidates' email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

The price. It's too high for an entrepreneur in a country like Argentina. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of ContactOut

Hi Sergio,

Thank you for the positive review! We are glad you love the service and understand our subscription model is not a good fit for every organization.

"Outright For Finding Email Addresses From LinkedIn"
4/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

ContactOut's chrome browser extension automatically detects the LinkedIn profile and extracts the email addresses hidden under the profile which is just awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

The thing that I dislike about this application is that it is only ideal for extracting email addresses from LinkedIn profiles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from of ContactOut

Thanks for the positive review.

One thing we need to clarify. ContactOut does not extract emails from Linkedin profiles or take any data from LinkedIn.

We have an AI algorithm that goes out to the public domain and collects emails and phone numbers from public websites, web forums, blogs, and social media sites, anywhere a person may have shared their contact information publicly, we collect and store that information in our database. Once we have found and email or phone number it is dropped into another sophisticated algorithm that takes it back out to the web and matches it to social media profiles, so we can link the data back to LinkedIn. The last thing we do is to verify emails do not bounce. This 3-step process is called out triple verification method.

The Chrome extension is only matching a person's profile from LinkedIn to a profile of a person in ContactOut's database when we match we show the relevant data from the ContactOut database.

"Powerful Prospecting Tool for LinkedIn"
5/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

ContactOut makes getting contact information from people's LinkedIn profile's a breeze. Often the program can even pull personal emails in addition to business emails, which is something I haven't seen any other software do. It has made getting contact info for the people I need to get in touch with much simpler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

Really, the only thing that would make this easier is for the button to appear in the LinkedIn profile instead of on the chrome bar, but I understand these are probably limitations on LinkedIn's side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Jacob,

"ContactOut Rocks!"
5/5
What do you like best about ContactOut?

For me, contactout adds a powerful overlay to Linkedin profiles. You'll have a chance to see phone numbers, email addresses, and links to social media. 30% of the FORTUNE 500 use Contactout to supercharge their recruiting team. An email has 2x the response of InMail, and candidates reply 5x faster! Don't take my word for it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ContactOut?

Not much to dislike from a service that takes most of the legwork out of email-marketing and maximization! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
