1 credit = 1 contact with all associated data. Additional credits $0.33/each. Two user types: Platform Users ($1,200/user/yr) log into SalesIntel directly. Data Only users ($300/user/yr) are licensed to consume exported data pulled by a Platform User — they never log in.
ZoomInfo is highly negotiable, especially at end-of-quarter. Discounts of 20–40% on list price are common. Multi-year commits unlock larger discounts. Competing quotes from Seamless or Clay are effective leverage. On the Global Data add-on ($9,995/yr list): a single ask has yielded discounts as high as 75% — always negotiate this separately before signing.
SalesIntel actively positions as a ZoomInfo alternative at lower cost and negotiates aggressively. Multi-year contracts unlock meaningful discounts — $8,000/yr on a 2-year deal, $7,500/yr on a 3-year deal vs $10,000 list. Teams switching from ZoomInfo or Apollo have strong leverage. Ask about Data Only user pricing if some team members only need exports.
The right choice depends on your team size, workflow, and priorities. A few context-specific scenarios:
Data quality, deliverability, and coverage vary by region and use case — these comparisons are based on pricing structure only. Evaluate both tools on a trial before committing.
