Who is lemlist best for?
A good fit if you
- Teams that want email, LinkedIn and calls in one sequence builder rather than stitching separate tools together.
- Teams with several reps on email only, since the Email plan lists unlimited users and email senders at one price.
- EU-based teams that want data stored in the EEA: lemlist states its data sits on OVH servers in France.
Look elsewhere if you
- High-volume email-only senders who want flat pricing with very large monthly send limits, where Instantly and Smartlead publish higher volume tiers.
- Large teams on Multichannel, because that plan is priced per user ($109 a month each on monthly billing).
- Buyers who need a published SOC 2 or ISO 27001 certification: lemlist's GDPR help article does not cite one.
Does lemlist integrate with Clay and your CRM?
- Clay
- Native Clay integration. Clay lists lemlist as a Clay-built integration with three actions: Add Lead to Campaign, Lookup a Lead in Campaign and Update Lead in Campaign.
