The short answer
Pick Sendsets if you want verified contacts, email verification and cold email sending in one tool, on a monthly plan from $29.
Stay on ZoomInfo if you run a large sales team that uses intent data, org charts and visitor tracking every day, and the contract fits your budget.
Why teams look for a ZoomInfo alternative
- The price
- ZoomInfo does not publish prices. Buyer reports put Professional around $15,000 a year, Advanced around $25,000 to $30,000 and Elite near $40,000, with a median contract of roughly $31,875 a year.
- Annual contracts
- Plans are sold yearly and paid upfront. A team that wants to test outbound for a quarter still signs for twelve months.
- Credits on top of seats
- Each package comes with a set number of credits. Exports beyond that allowance mean buying more, so the yearly figure is a floor rather than a ceiling.
- More platform than a small team uses
- Intent, audiences and orchestration are built for large go-to-market teams. A founder who needs verified emails for a few hundred accounts pays for all of it.

What you get with Sendsets
- 420M+ B2B contacts with work emails and phone numbers, searchable by job title, industry, company size and location. See the full breakdown of the data.
- Verification before you send. Emails get a live SMTP check with catch-all detection, so a stale address does not bounce and hurt your sender reputation (how verification works).
- Sending in the same tool. Connect mailboxes, warm them up and run sequences without a second subscription (cold email).
- One flat monthly price. No annual contract and no per-seat fee on top.
What Sendsets does not have: intent data, a built-in dialer or org charts. If those are central to how your team sells, weigh that before switching.

What is the best ZoomInfo alternative?
It depends on what you use ZoomInfo for. If you need verified emails for a defined list of companies and want to email them from the same tool, Sendsets covers that from $29 a month. If you depend on deep US company coverage with org charts, hierarchy and technographics, ZoomInfo may still be the better fit.
How much does ZoomInfo cost?
About $15,000 a year (reported, Professional). ZoomInfo quotes every deal, so these are figures buyers have reported, not list prices. Seats, credits and add-ons move the total.
Is there a free ZoomInfo alternative?
ZoomInfo's own free option is: zoomInfo Lite: about 10 credits a month (reported). Free tiers across this category are small, usually tens of contacts a month, which is enough to test data quality but not to run a campaign.
Can I bring my ZoomInfo lists into Sendsets?
Yes. Export your saved lists or CRM records as a CSV, upload them to Sendsets to verify and fill missing fields, then rebuild your saved searches with the same title, industry, size and location filters.
Does Sendsets have intent data?
No. Sendsets focuses on verified contact data and sending. Teams that buy on intent signals usually keep a dedicated intent provider alongside it.
