Datagma vs RocketReach
An independent, review-free comparison compiled by the SaaSTracker editorial team. Both products are profiled in full, and neither can pay for placement here.
The short answer
Both sides assessedDatagma compared with RocketReach
RocketReach sells a searchable database of around 700 million people on per-seat annual plans starting at 829 dollars a year before phone numbers are available at all. Datagma sells no search at all, but includes ten seats, charges 49 dollars a month with no commitment, and publishes a thirty-credit mobile rate. If you need to find out who to call, pay RocketReach. If you already know and just need the number, Datagma does it for a small fraction of the cost.
RocketReach compared with Datagma
Datagma includes ten seats on every plan, publishes a thirty-credit exchange rate for a mobile at roughly 33 to 49 cents, and charges 49 dollars a month with no commitment. RocketReach costs 829 dollars a year per seat before phones are available. Datagma cannot search a database and has no meaningful workflow; RocketReach can and does. Small teams that already know their targets should take Datagma on cost alone; teams that need to find people should pay RocketReach.
Choose Datagma if
Small sales teams that need mobile phone numbers at a published price without a sales call or a per-seat contract, and European teams that want a single credit pool covering both email and phone enrichment inside HubSpot or an automation tool.
Choose RocketReach if
Recruiters and individual sales professionals who need to search a very large people database rather than enrich a list they already have, who need phone numbers alongside emails, and who can justify a per-seat annual subscription.

| Category | Data | Data |
| Starting price | $0 (Free), then $49 per month (Regular) (free plan available) | $329 per seat per year (Essentials, about $27 a month), or $49 a month billed monthly (free plan available) |
| Pricing model | Freemium monthly or annual subscription drawing on a single credit pool, where one credit buys a verified email and thirty credits buy a verified mobile number, with ten team seats included on every tier. | Per-seat subscription across three published tiers, with lookup and export volume caps, phone numbers gated to Pro and above, and full API access gated to Ultimate; advertised low prices assume annual billing. |
| Free plan | 90 verified emails or three mobile numbers per month, with API access and ten team seats included. | A small monthly lookup allowance for evaluation; not workable for production use. |
| Free trial | No time-limited trial; the permanent free tier is the evaluation path | A limited free tier with a small number of lookups is available for evaluation |
| Best for | Small sales teams that need mobile phone numbers at a published price without a sales call or a per-seat contract, and European teams that want a single credit pool covering both email and phone enrichment inside HubSpot or an automation tool. | Recruiters and individual sales professionals who need to search a very large people database rather than enrich a list they already have, who need phone numbers alongside emails, and who can justify a per-seat annual subscription. |
| Setup time | Ten minutes for the web app, the Chrome extension, or a Zapier flow. Around an hour for the native HubSpot integration, mostly spent deciding which fields Datagma may write to. | Fifteen minutes: create the account, install the browser extension, run a search. CRM integration takes another hour, and API integration is only available once you are on Ultimate. |
| Learning curve | Low. The only concept to internalise is the thirty-to-one exchange rate, because a team that starts pulling mobiles without adjusting its mental model will exhaust a monthly allowance in a few days. | Low for the extension, moderate for the search filters, which reward learning. The genuinely confusing part is the metering: lookups and exports are separate counters with different caps depending on whether you chose monthly or annual billing, and most new users do not realise this until they hit a limit. |

Strengths and limitations
Datagma
Strengths
- The published thirty-credit exchange rate for a mobile number is the clearest phone pricing in this category, and it is buyable without a sales call.
- One shared credit pool for email and phone means you can flex between channels rather than stranding two separate allowances.
- Ten team seats on every plan including Free removes the per-seat multiplier that dominates the cost of RocketReach and ContactOut.
- Twelve month credit rollover on monthly plans is unusually generous at this price point.
Limitations
- No published match rate for phones or emails, and because lookups are brokered to partner providers at request time, coverage varies by geography and over time in ways the vendor cannot commit to.
- The vendor does not state clearly whether a failed lookup consumes a credit, which is the most consequential unanswered question on the pricing page.
- Annual billing is cheaper per credit but resets the balance at cycle end, so the discount comes at the cost of the rollover that makes the monthly plan attractive.
- No prospecting database, so it cannot tell you who to contact, only how to reach someone you have already identified.
RocketReach
Strengths
- One of the largest owned contact databases available self-serve, at roughly 700 million professionals and 60 million companies, with real-time coverage on 430 million.
- It is a genuine search tool, not only an enrichment tool, so it answers who to contact rather than only how to reach them.
- Phone numbers are drawn from the same lookup allowance rather than costing a ten or thirty credit multiplier, which is unusually favourable at volume once you are on Pro.
- Personal emails alongside work emails on Pro and Ultimate make it genuinely useful for recruiting, which is a large share of its user base.
Limitations
- Per-seat pricing is the dominant cost factor for any team, and it compounds: five people on Pro is over 4,000 dollars a year before anyone looks anything up.
- The advertised prices assume an annual commitment; monthly billing costs 45 to 80 percent more for the same plan.
- Essentials is email-only, so the cheapest tier is a non-starter for anyone who needs to call, and there is no add-on to fix it.
- Full API access is gated to Ultimate at 1,699 dollars a year per seat, which is an expensive way to obtain an endpoint compared with Enrich, Icypeas, or Hunter, all of which include an API far lower down.
Pricing compared
Datagma
Freemium monthly or annual subscription drawing on a single credit pool, where one credit buys a verified email and thirty credits buy a verified mobile number, with ten team seats included on every tier.
- Free$0
- Regular$49
- Popular$99
- Expert$249
- EnterpriseCustom
For email alone Datagma is competitive but not exceptional, at roughly 1.6 cents per verified address at 1,000 to 3,000 a month and about 1.1 cents at 22,500. Icypeas is cheaper and Anymail Finder is comparable. The reason to buy is the phone number: at 30 credits a mobile costs about 49 cents on Regular and 33 cents on Expert, published openly and buyable without a call, where FullEnrich and BetterContact charge ten credits that work out similar or higher and where RocketReach and ContactOut wrap phones in per-seat annual plans. Add ten included seats and twelve month rollover on monthly billing and Datagma is the cheapest legitimate way for a small team to get dialable numbers. The risk you are pricing is coverage variance and a three-person vendor.
RocketReach
Per-seat subscription across three published tiers, with lookup and export volume caps, phone numbers gated to Pro and above, and full API access gated to Ultimate; advertised low prices assume annual billing.
- Essentials$329 per year
- Pro$829 per year
- Ultimate$1,699 per year
- Team and customQuoted
At the published caps, Essentials works out at about 27 cents per export annually and 49 cents per lookup monthly, Pro at about 23 cents and 40 cents, and Ultimate at about 8.5 cents annually and 21 cents monthly. Those are five to twenty times the per-contact cost of Hunter, Anymail Finder, or Icypeas. What you are buying for the difference is a searchable owned database of around 700 million people, phone numbers at no extra credit multiplier, and a ten-year-old vendor with a support organisation. For a recruiter who lives in the product all day and needs to find people rather than enrich them, that is defensible. For a small team enriching known lists, it is poor value, and the per-seat structure makes it worse with every person you add.
Editorial verdict on each
Datagma
Datagma exists to solve one problem cheaply: getting a mobile phone number without signing an annual contract or sitting through a demo. Thirty credits per mobile, published openly, works out at 33 to 49 cents a number, with ten seats included, twelve month rollover on monthly plans, and an API on every tier including the free one. For a small sales team that has decided to start calling, that is the least painful entry point in this market. The offsetting realities are that Datagma is a broker rather than a database, publishes no match rate, does not say clearly whether a failed lookup burns credits, and is run by about three people. Use it as a cheap phone source inside a waterfall or as a two-person team's dialling budget. Do not make it the single dependency underneath a revenue-critical outbound machine.
Read the full Datagma profileRocketReach
RocketReach is a proper database business rather than a lookup utility, and it should be evaluated as one. Roughly 700 million people, real search filters, personal emails, and phone numbers that do not carry a credit multiplier make it genuinely valuable to recruiters and to individual sellers building a territory from nothing. It is also the most expensive way to buy contact data in this batch: prices are per seat, the advertised numbers assume an annual commitment, the cheapest tier has no phone numbers, the API is locked to a 1,699 dollar tier, and the volume caps are small enough that any real enrichment workload needs a quote. Buy it if finding people is the job. If you already know who you want and simply need their details, almost everything else in this category will do that job for a fraction of the money.
