Overview

ListWise - Overview

Listwise is a straightforward tool for email verification designed to verify email addresses intelligently. However, with regard to overall email verification accuracy, it falls behind. As part of Listwise, there are three related products: Maxmail, Texta, and CyberCom Pay.

Pros

Free Trials & Credits
To give you a trial run, ListWise offers 100 free credits upon signing up. You can use these free credits either through bulk upload or through its developer API. In terms of free trials and credits, ListWise comes in second after MyEmailVerifier.
Accurate in Detecting Emails
In addition to detecting Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, role-based emails, disposable emails, catch-all emails, and more, Listwise is also very good at detecting email addresses. In addition to identifying and removing invalid and duplicate emails, it also detects and removes spam traps that are hidden in your email list, making your email list as clean as ever.
Good Customer Support
It offers excellent customer support through email, phone calls, and live chat. The customer service team replies to live chats within 2 to 3 minutes. In addition, the phone support team has six contact numbers located in different locations, which makes it easy for users to get their technical questions answered quickly.
Email Verification Without Signup
Additionally, ListWise allows you to verify up to three emails daily without creating an account.
Auto-Correct Typos
The ListWise email verification tool also fixes the obvious typos by itself, so you don't have to do it manually.
Data Security
When it comes to data security, ListWise doesn't compromise anything. It is a PCI-DSS-compliant email verifier. Bulk data uploaded by users are automatically deleted after 90 days, or you can manually delete them by clicking on the “Delete List” icon given in your dashboard. Apart from that, it does not store any data cleaned using its API.

Cons

Less Affordable
In addition to that, ListWise has a high minimum order value, which is $44 for 10K credits if you choose a monthly plan, and $45 for 10K credits if you choose a pre-paid plan. Consequently, Listwise was not able to make LCA's list of the top 10 most affordable email verifiers.
Lengthy Signup Process
Listwise's signup process is a bit longer than other email verification services.
No Integration
While most other vendors offer integration facilities with all well-known ESPs and marketing applications, Listwise does not provide integration facilities with any of them. Users will not be able to upload their email lists directly from third-party applications since there is no integration facility. They will also not be able to manage their marketing activities in one place.
High Turnaround Time
In our auditing, it took 475 minutes to verify 10K emails. So, users have to wait while ListWise processes the email verification.
Less Accurate
ListWise has less accuracy than other vendors, such as MyEmailVerifier, ZeroBounce, QuickEmailVerification, etc. However, the vendor claims 96% accuracy, and we found it 78% accurate during auditing.

ZeroBounce - Overview

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

With their API integration, you can prevent unwanted sign-ups and have clean email lists. A well-managed API dashboard allows you to look over daily and monthly reports.

They use AI technology to score your catch-all email address, which is risky to send through A.I., providing you with a better idea of whether to send an email to each email address.

While other providers like MyEmailVerifier and Debounce verify 10k emails in less than $30, ZeroBounce charges $60.

You don't have to worry about your data privacy with Zero Bounce. They are Swiss EU-US privacy shield certified vendors. There are only 2-3 vendors with this certification.

Zero Bounce is a qualitative choice if you are looking for extra information about the email validation results and informative analysis.

Pros

Accuracy is good
With its claims of 99% accuracy, ZeroBounce gave 98% accuracy when we audited it. This builds trustworthiness in the eyes of users, and it stands second behind MyEmailVerifier when it comes to accuracy.
A highly secure environment
Whenever it comes to protecting users' data, ZeroBounce stands out. In addition to providing military-grade protection at the time of email verification, it also encrypts data. Additionally, your data will be deleted immediately after 30 days of email verification.
Facility for scoring
With ZeroBounce, you can grade email addresses from 0 to 10 based on your subscribers' interaction with your emails. 10 is the highest quality rating, and 0 is the lowest. With this score, you can quickly determine which contacts to target and whether they will convert into your final customers.
Commendable customer service
Like MEV, ZeroBounce has excellent customer service. You can contact them by email, phone (during business hours), or live chat (24/7/365). When we audited, they replied promptly to our technical questions in detail. The response time is under 15 minutes.

With ZB, there are no limits on the number of files or the size of files per day, hour, etc.
Over the last three years, the ZB unknown rate has consistently been under 1%.
An effective integration facility
Users can integrate ZeroBounce accounts with 45+ third-party applications, including Mailchimp, Active Campaign, AWeber, and more. As a result, you, as a user, can easily upload your email list from one of these 45+ apps and manage your marketing activities all in one place.
Detection of gender and location
ZeroBounce’s system detected the gender and location effortlessly when we uploaded an email list file in CSV format with the first name column. This is where ZeroBounce stands out from other email verification systems.
Turnaround time is quick
It took ZeroBounce 43 minutes to verify 10K emails, whereas the average industry standard T/A time for 10K emails is 582 minutes. Therefore, ZeroBounce's actual T/A time is less.

Cons

Slight costly
Compared to other vendors like RemoveBounce, DeBounce, etc., ZeroBounce charges $65 for 10K email addresses. In addition, ZeroBounce has a minimum purchase of 2000 credits at $16, which puts it at 20th place among 35+ vendors audited by LCA for pricing/affordability.
