About Hunter
Cloud-based email search solution that helps businesses find emails on company websites, verify domains, compose follow-ups, and more.
These features every online business basically needs. The product is very easy to use, once I find an email I click copy and it is copied to the clickboard (no email integration for the free plan).
It's inability to find certain organizations unless you're totally accurate with the typing.

Excellent tool to help contact people
Comments: Very powerful and useful tool to find email addresses for new contacts
Pros:
It is clean and straightforward, but very powerful and usewr frinedly
Cons:
Nothing, it does exactly what is says. If it doesn't know an email address, it is clear, but shows what addresses it has for that organisation
I Think Hunter is Great, Very Little Room For Improvement
Comments: Overall, my experiences with Hunter have been positive. A vast majority of the time it is able to get me the email address of the people I want to contact.
Pros:
I think Hunter is a great tool to make sure that you are contacting the people that you want to. Even if you can't nail down someone's contact info using Hunter, it can still point you in the right direction.
Cons:
I think Hunter could be better if they had more comprehensive data-scraping tools. Sometimes I will be working to find the email of someone on an accept-all domain only to find it somewhere else on the internet. If Hunter could have found that, it would have saved me some time.

Hunting Down Executives Emails
Comments: I've had a positive experience using Hunter. It is quick, easy and gives up-to-date email information. I've used it for several years now and have suggested several business owners to use it as well.
Pros:
The obvious best feature is the resource for finding email addresses with a click of a button. They have a free version, and it enables you to get a certain number of searches per day.
Cons:
At times when you post a link into the search, sometimes they aren't able to find any email addresses.

Reliable and Accurate Email Verification Tool for Businesses
Comments: My overall experience with Hunter has been very positive. It’s an effective and easy-to-use tool for email verification, helping us maintain a clean and reliable email list. While it’s a bit on the pricier side, the accuracy and efficiency it offers make it a valuable asset for our business.
Pros:
Hunter’s email verification is highly accurate and easy to use, helping us keep our email lists clean and improve campaign performance.
Cons:
Hunter can be a bit pricey for smaller businesses, and occasional limitations in finding less common email addresses could be improved.
Hunter, the tool I'm using since 2017
Comments: I started to use Hunter to find email formatting. I'm now using it to exploit some of the sources where Hunter finds the actual email address. Domain check and Verifier are also tools I now use quite a lot because they are really powerful and save me a lot of time when preparing a business Pipe.
Pros:
It's really easy to use and allows you to try the product without sharing all your data. The features are straightforward and keep delivering a high-end result when being used on a daily basis or less often.
Cons:
They have a lot of features, when I come back to the service after a while, I'm like "ok there's a lot of things I don't know yet here". I'd like to be able to hide some of the features I will never use like if it was shortcuts. Maybe future update.

Hunter.io speeds up the overall sales cycle
Comments: Extremely positive. I do a lot of analysis in determining what steps to take in trying to reach out to a potential client. Hunter.io provides me with the opportunity to get the ball rolling so I can begin the negotiation process by being able to reach out to the correct decision maker.
Pros:
Sometimes as an account executive we get a lead such as a business name or the name of the person who is the decision maker but have no contact info other than the name. Hunter.io is an excellent tool to quickly obtain the email address for that particular company or for that decision maker. This gets the ball rolling ASAP so there is no delays in sending that lead info that will give us a better shot at finalizing a deal. I use the product very often with excellent results. Thanks Hunter.io
Cons:
The only con I have would be there are some businesses in which you guys do not have info about that business.
Hunter: Save time on hunting contact information
Comments: Overall, it's a fantastic tool to help drive new and accurate contact information for sales and marketing teams.
Pros:
Hunter has streamlined our sales teams prospecting and qualifying immensely. It's incredibly difficult to source accurate contact information in the real estate space outside of phone numbers, and this is a great tool to simply go to a website and largely find all the contact information you'd need for your ICP or your potential outreach.
Cons:
If you navigate away from the page using the Chrome Extension and somehow that chrome extension closes (say moving to a different tab to add in the contact information to your CRM), the extension closes and to look up another name using their search engine burns an additional credit, where it would not if you stayed on the same tab to my understanding.

Hi Nolan, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that Hunter has made prospecting and qualifying so much easier for your Sales team! Regarding your concern about the Chrome Extension, I'm happy to clarify that Hunter only counts Search and Verification credits once per billing period. So, if you research the same domain multiple times, no additional credits will be deducted during that period, even if you navigate away or reopen the extension. I hope that clarifies things! If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Support team. Thanks again for your review and for choosing Hunter! Laura - Customer Success @ Hunter
The little email address app that grew up to be a big help
Comments: Started with them in their early days getting email addresses. Did a great job, better than Rocket at that time. Service and price fit my business needs
Pros:
Ease of use in all of the functions they make available. Very reasonable price. As much customer support as you need.
Cons:
None. Wish they could run on top of LinkedIn, but I am sure that is LinkedIn's fault, not theirs.
Must-have tool
Comments: The overall experience with Hunter is good. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a tool to extract emails from the website and anyone looking to use it for free. I highly recommend Hunter to anyone looking for a way to generate a reliable lead.
Pros:
Not only can it help you find emails for potential customers, but it can also help you check those emails. Simply enter your name and company. One of Hunter's most striking features is its extensive and accurate database.
Cons:
When I post a link to a search, sometimes I can't find an email address. I wish the software had more features.

Reviewing Hunter
Comments: very good, it helps with checking emails
Pros:
Its quick and easy, and gives you answers straight away
Cons:
Dont use all info, just to verify emails
Stop the difficult Hunt with Hunter
Comments: It has been a successful overall experience. The software has allowed my org to gather a large volume of contact information quickly, reducing the time and effort required for lead generation. Plus grabbing emails for us is such a crucial part of us using the tool which I think they do best.
Pros:
To streamline your lead generation and email outreach efforts. Especially searching for those emails that may not be picked up with other tools.
Cons:
The specific features available may vary depending on the plan or subscription level you choose. Unfortunately my team is small where we can't justify spending for the tool. Also sometimes the user-face is a little simple and gltichy, I think a better theme with buttons that function 100% would help me feel better about the tool.

Hi Meghan, Laura here from Hunter Support, thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are pleased to hear that Hunter has been helpful in gathering a large number of leads and improving your workflow. At present, we offer access to a free monthly plan, which includes 75 monthly credits (25 Search and 50 Verification Credits). With the Free Plan, you can access all of our functionalities, except for the CSV export and the Bulk Domain Search feature, which however, are available starting with our lowest plan and wouldn't be very useful on a free Plan anyway, due to the limited monthly credits available. Regarding the design, we've made efforts to keep Hunter as simple as possible, and we are truly sorry to hear that you have encountered some issues with our application. This should definitely not be the case, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience. May I kindly ask you to contact us at [email protected] so that we can further investigate this? Thanks in advance!
