Where they pull apart

SalesQL

Stands out: MCP on a lightweight browser finder, which is rare at this price.

Watch out: Single-source rather than a waterfall, and the integration list is thin.

Not the right fit for

  • Teams that need unlimited dials
  • Buyers who want multi-source waterfall coverage

Surfe

Stands out: Push LinkedIn people into Salesforce, HubSpot, or Pipedrive without a CSV: sales-team contact sync, not a bulk finder.

Watch out: Essential is $39 annual / $49 monthly per user. The $29/mo figure is a separate enrichment module, not Essential.

Not the right fit for

  • Recruiters who only need a bulk email find
  • Teams without a CRM
  • People who want unlimited Swordfish-style reveals
