B2B data provider options compared

A B2B data provider sells contact and company data: names, job titles, work emails and often phone numbers. Some sell access to a database through a tool you log into. Others hand you a finished file. The table shows six, with how each one charges.

Provider How you pay Best for
PromptLeadz One-off list. $29 for 1,000 leads up to $799 for 100,000. No subscription. Free count and 15 real rows first. A ready file of checked work emails for one campaign or market, without buying a tool
ZoomInfo Custom quote, no public prices. SpendHound reports an average of $49,097 a year for companies with 50 to 1,000 staff. Larger sales teams that want a full data platform
Cognism Custom quote, no public prices. Vendr reports a median of $36,000 a year, with a range of $18,500 to $95,240. Teams that need phone-verified mobiles
Apollo.io Free plan. Capterra lists Basic at $49 and Professional at $99 per user a month. Small teams that want data and email sending in one tool
Lusha Free plan with 5 credits a month. Capterra lists Starter at $49.90 and Pro at $69.90 per user a month. Quick lookups with a browser extension
UpLead Essentials $99 a month for 170 credits, or $74 a month billed annually. Extra credits $0.60 each. Small monthly volumes you search for yourself

How to pick one

  1. Do you want a tool or a list? A tool means seats, credits and someone who searches every week. A list means one file for one job. If nobody on your team has time to build lists, a tool sits unused.
  2. How many contacts do you need in a year? Divide the yearly cost by the contacts you will really use. A tool at $36,000 a year and a list at $149 for 10,000 serve very different volumes.
  3. Can you see real rows first? Ask for a sample from your exact target and run it through an email checker before you pay or sign.
  4. Do you need phone numbers? Ask for them by name. Mobiles cost more with almost every provider.

Questions people ask

It depends on how you want to buy. ZoomInfo and Cognism sell annual platforms to sales teams, Apollo.io, Lusha and UpLead sell monthly seats with credits, and PromptLeadz sells a one-off list of checked work emails, built to your brief, from $29 for 1,000 with no subscription.

How much does a B2B data provider cost?

Apollo.io and Lusha have free plans, with paid plans from $49 and $49.90 per user a month.

Do I need a data tool or a one-off list?

A data tool fits a team that searches for new contacts every week. A one-off list fits a single campaign or a new market, when nobody has time to learn a tool. If you only need a few thousand contacts a quarter, a list usually costs less than a year of seats.

Is it legal to buy B2B data?

Buying business contact data and emailing people at work about relevant offers is allowed in many countries, but the rules differ. CAN-SPAM applies in the US and GDPR in the UK and EU. Check the rules where you and the people you contact are based, and ask a lawyer if you are unsure.

Can I get mobile numbers from a B2B data provider?

Yes, from most providers, usually at a higher price. Cognism sells phone-verified mobiles as an add-on. At PromptLeadz mobile numbers are added at double the tier price, from 9 million contacts with a mobile number.
