Autocloz vs Apollo
Apollo pairs a large B2B contact database with email/call sequencing.
Apollo's strength is its database; its engagement + dialer sit behind higher tiers and per-seat pricing. Autocloz brings all five channels + a free CRM with no per-seat fee — bring your own data source (or any Apify actor) and keep your spend on volume, not seats.

Frequently asked
Is Autocloz an Apollo alternative?
For the outreach + CRM half, yes — Autocloz runs email, calling, LinkedIn, SMS and WhatsApp with a free CRM and unlimited users. For data, you connect your own source or any Apify actor rather than a bundled database.
Does Autocloz include a contact database?
Autocloz focuses on outreach + CRM; you bring data via CSV, API, or per-org Apify actors. That keeps pricing off per-record database fees.
If I leave Apollo, where does my data come from?
That is the honest trade and worth deciding before you switch. Apollo's value is the database as much as the sequencer. Autocloz gives you email finding and free unlimited verification on the contacts you already have, plus per-org Apify actors for sourcing, but it does not resell a B2B contact set. Many teams keep a data subscription and move only the outreach and CRM.
How does calling compare?
Apollo includes a dialer with its sequences. Autocloz runs a carrier-grade dialer with IVR and voicemail drops, and — the part that usually matters more — quiet hours and TCPA windows are enforced per channel in the recipient-relevant timezone, so a sequence cannot place a call outside a legal window because someone mis-set a schedule.
What does 'unlimited users' change in practice?
It removes the decision about who gets a seat. On per-seat pricing, teams routinely leave SDRs, contractors or founders off the tool to control cost, and the CRM stops reflecting reality. Every Autocloz plan includes unlimited users, so everyone who touches a deal can be in the system and the pipeline stays accurate.
