Why Dropcontact is the best alternative to ContactOut
Dropcontact has developed its own email address search algorithms, and its own servers for verification. It's the only RGPD solution that doesn't use nominative databases: fresh data guaranteed.
B2B email finder
and enrichment
The real-time generation of business email addresses by our algorithms brings two main advantages.
The first is that the data delivered is systematically up-to-date.
The obsolescence of data stored in a database does not and will never impact Dropcontact's performance.
The second is that the information is delivered in compliance with the General Regulation for Data Protection.
Dropcontact's algorithms generate up to 80% of business addresses from the full name and domain of the company.
Contact Out displays a database of +1.2 billion email addresses, retrieved or built up in various ways.
For each query, ContactOut will supply the data contained in its contact database.
To maintain and guarantee fresh data, the solution must constantly scrape thousands of pieces of information from the web, or use third-party data providers.
A 100% GDPR compliant tool
The GDPR prohibits the resale of nominative data without the explicit consent of the person concerned.
ContactOut, in order to resell data stored in a database, has necessarily requested the opt-in of the 1.2 billion people present in its database, what do you think?
Dropcontact, thanks to its algorithmic operation, different from all other solutions on the market, becomes the only solution 100% compliant with current regulations.
We don't use any, yes any, nominative databases to add professional information. Beyond legal compliance, real-time search allows us to deliver up-to-date information, and systematically.
B2B emails verification
The test servers developed by Dropcontact enable us to verify all the addresses supplied, and this verification is included in the email address enrichment, for a validity rate of 98% (85% for catch-all domains).
ContactOut only supplies email addresses, and only supplies email addresses from an established database.
Contacts and companies duplicate merging
Thanks to its algorithms, Dropcontact is able to detect your duplicate contacts. Once identified, they are merged by Dropcontact to become one. Your data is qualitative and up-to-date.
ContactOut, on the other hand, is unable to detect your duplicate contacts.
