Pros

Affordable Rates
Bouncer is a part of LCA’s recommended top five most affordable email verifiers. Want to know why? Bouncer charges only $20 for 10K email address verification. It is far more affordable than the other vendors such as Clearout, TowerData, BriteVerify, etc. However, its charges are less; it doesn’t compromise its accuracy. It offers the best accuracy level at very reasonable rates.
Good Accuracy
We found Bouncer with great accuracy, i.e. 97%, during its audit. With this, it gets 7th rank in LCA’s recommended list of 10 accurate email verifiers. It is very good at detecting emails, including free emails, disposable emails, role-based, catch-all, etc. However, Bouncer itself claims 99.5% accuracy; we get 97% which is also up to the mark.
Free Credits
Like other email verification tools, Bouncer also lets you verify the first 100 emails free of cost upon successful signup. This is how it allows you to try and test its verification ability before you actually buy!
Highly Secure
Bouncer is one of the most secure email verification tools. It offers the top-graded data security to protect the data uploaded by the users and the result which the Bouncer itself generates.
Real-Time & Bulk Email Verification API
Using its real-time and bulk email verification API, you can explore its unlimited possibilities to verify email addresses. This API maintains and improves your email list hygiene as it doesn’t allow invalid email addresses to be part of your email list.

Cons

High Turnaround Time
According to the August 2021 audit report for Bouncer performed by LCA, Bouncer takes around 500 minutes to verify 10K email addresses. But if we check the average industry standard, it should be 498 minutes maximum for 10K email verification. Thus, its actual T/A time is greater than the standard T/A time. With this, it holds 16th rank in the list of fastest email verifiers.
Integration with Limited Applications
It lets its users integrate his/her Bouncer account with only ten marketing and other applications. If you don’t use any of such tools or use one or two out of them, you can't benefit from this integration facility to the maximum extent.
Poor Customer Support
During the auditing process, we found that Bouncer doesn’t provide live chat and phone support to its users. It offers only email support which is also very poor as they don’t reply immediately, but users have to wait around 24 hours for a response from its technical team.

ZeroBounce - Overview

ZeroBounce is a renowned US-based email verification service and one of the fastest-growing companies in the email verification industry (according to INC. 5000).

Their API integration can validate any email addresses to stop unwanted signup and have cleaned email lists. Even they provide a well-managed API dashboard to look over the daily and monthly reports.

Their A.I. technology is beneficial to get the score of your email address that is identified as the catch-all but quite risky to send through A.I. scoring you get a proper idea of whether to send an email on each email address or not.

ZeroBounce pricing is much higher in contrast to other providers like MyEmailVerifier & Debounce. While the other two verifies 10k emails in less than $30, Z.B. is asking $60 for the same.

Worried about your data privacy? You don't need to be with Zero Bounce. They are Swiss EU-US privacy shield certified vendors. There are only 2-3 vendors who are having this certificate.

Zero Bounce is a qualitative choice for the ones who look for extra information about the email validation results and informative analysis.

Pros

Good Accuracy
ZeroBounce claims for 99% accuracy, and it actually gave 95% accuracy when we performed its auditing. This is what builds trustworthiness in the eyes of its users. With this, it stands at 2nd position immediately after MyEmailVerifier in terms of accuracy.
Highly Secured
ZeroBounce stands ahead when we talk about users’ data security. It provides military-grade protection along with a data encryption facility at the time of email verification. Apart from that, it also removes your data immediately after 30 days from the email verification process.
Scoring Facility
ZeroBounce uses A.I. to score email addresses from 0 to 10 based on how subscribers interact with your emails. 10 is considered as the best quality rating, while 0 is considered as the lowest quality rating. Based on this scoring, you can quickly know which contacts are good to target and whether they are likely to convert into your final customers or not.
Commendable Customer Support
Just like MEV, ZeroBounce’s customer support is admirable. You can contact them through email, phone call (during their business hours), or through live chat (24/7/365). We got speedy replies in detail for the technical queries during the auditing. The response time is under 15minutes.
We have no limits on number of files or file sizes per day hour etc. no limits with ZB.
ZB unknown rate is under 1% consistently for the last 3 years.

Thus, you as a user can easily upload an email list from any of these 45+ apps and manage your marketing activity from a single platform.
Gender & Geo Location Detection
When we uploaded an email list file of CSV format consisting of the first name column, the ZeroBouce system detected the gender & geo-location easily from that information. This is where ZeroBounce stays ahead of other email verifiers.
Quick Turnaround Time
While auditing ZeroBounce, it took 450 minutes to verify 10K emails. On the other hand, the average industry standard T/A time is 498 minutes for 10K email verification. Thus, we can see that ZeroBounce’s actual T/A time is less t

Cons

Less Affordable
ZeroBounce asks for $65 for 10K email addresses, which is very high compared to other vendors such as RemoveBounce, DeBounce, etc. Moreover, its minimum purchase size is 2000 credits at $16. With this, ZeroBounce gets 22nd rank for its pricing/affordability among 35+ other vendors audited by LCA.
