Who each is better for
QuickEmailVerification if you verify a few hundred or a few thousand addresses now and then and want credits that never expire, or a recurring daily free allowance. The catch: every re-check is billed again.
ZeroBounce if you want deliverability tools in the same account and will pay $99 a month for the bundle. The catch: its subscription starts at 10,000 credits, and the cheapest pack is $39 for 2,000.
A third option: SimpleVerifier
SimpleVerifier Pro is $39 a month. The first 100,000 checks a month run at full speed, then slower, never cut off. Results are valid, risky or invalid.
Honest limits:
- At 2,500 checks ($20) and 5,000 ($35) QuickEmailVerification is cheaper than $39; so is its 500-credit $4 pack.
- For one huge clean, QuickEmailVerification's $1,350 for 1,000,000 runs at full speed; Pro only does the first 100,000 a month.
- Pro is cheaper than both at 100,000 ($39 against $320 and $649) if you re-check lists, since packs are bought again each pass.
