Waalaxy, for a few accounts. Waalaxy Advanced costs less than half of HeyReach Growth per account on monthly billing.
At a dozen or more senders, HeyReach Agency can match or beat per-user pricing.
Run a short side-by-side test before you decide. Give both tools the same real task, time how long each takes, and ask a colleague who did not set them up to try them. The result is usually clearer than any feature table.
Also check how each vendor handles renewal. Yearly plans are often billed in advance, price rises are common at renewal, and cancelling late can lock you into another term. Put the renewal date in the team calendar the day you buy.
Which is better for agencies?
HeyReach, because of workspaces, white label and a fixed-price plan. Waalaxy has a team workspace but no white label.
Waalaxy caps invitations at 300 to 800 a month per user.
Ask for a written statement of plan limits when you buy, because caps on seats, credits, or senders change from time to time, and a record of what you were promised is useful if a limit moves.
Remember that you can start small. Most vendors offer a trial, so begin with the cheapest plan that covers your real work, and upgrade only when a specific limit blocks you.
A useful habit is to record the result of each trial in one short note: the account or list used, the setup time, the number of replies or valid contacts found, and the main frustration. Comparing two notes is far easier than comparing two memories.
Check how the vendor communicates change. Price and plan changes are announced in different ways, and a vendor that gives notice and keeps older plans for existing customers is easier to plan around than one that does not.
Which has stronger evidence?
Waalaxy has a 4.5 score from 1,709 G2 reviews. HeyReach lists 74 reviews with no score in the snippet we read.
Neither stated security certifications, and both carry LinkedIn automation risk.
Finally, think about exit costs. Check how easily you can export your lists and sequences, and keep notes on how your setup is built, so a later switch does not mean starting from scratch.
Keep the client in the loop on risk. Outreach tools touch client reputation, so agree sending limits and approval rules in writing before the first campaign goes out.
How do HeyReach and Waalaxy compare on integrations, security, and support?
Beyond price, agencies ask about connections to their other tools, what to tell clients about security, and how quickly they can get help. This is what each vendor states publicly, as checked in October 2026.
