    • Easy to set up without a consultant

    3. Mixmax

    Best for: Sales and recruiting teams who live in Gmail and want sequences, tracking and scheduling there

    Free plan + paidWeb, Browser extension

    42.3

    score / 100

    Why switch from Outreach

    Lighter Gmail-based sequences and tracking for smaller teams, with a free plan.

    Pros

    • Works inside Gmail instead of a separate outreach app
    • All features on every paid seat, priced by recipients per month
    • Built-in scheduling, templates and CRM logging
    • Free plan and a no-card 14-day trial

    Cons

    • Built around Gmail, so Outlook-based teams are a poor fit
    • Unused recipients don't roll over and can't be pooled across a team
    • Dialler, branding and advanced rules are paid add-ons
