What happens to your existing workflow?

A cloud product can keep campaigns running without your computer. An email integration requires another sending product; it isn’t the same as native email in the sequence builder. Those differences determine which parts of an Expandi campaign you can retain in one subscription.

1. Aimfox

Best for: Teams that want to organize shared outreach and optionally add rented profiles.

Aimfox is our first pick for sharing LinkedIn outreach across several accounts. Its shared campaigns can use one account to find the audience and other accounts to send messages. Once a sender makes a connection request or sends an InMail, that prospect stays assigned to the sender.

For accounts you already have, Aimfox Outreach costs US$49 per active seat per month with monthly billing. The Agency plan costs US$499 a month for 20 seats. Email uses a separate connected platform, so replacing Expandi’s native email steps involves keeping or adding an email subscription.

Avatars is a different purchase for teams that need outreach profiles as well as software. It costs US$387 a month for three rented profiles with their seats included. These profiles are created for outreach and don’t belong to real employees. Rentals stay inside Aimfox, with fixed names and photos. Purchases typically cover several months, so ordinary Outreach seats are the better starting point when you already have suitable accounts.

2. HeyReach

Best for: Agencies that need organized client workspaces and a shared LinkedIn inbox.

HeyReach is a strong agency choice when several colleagues answer messages for clients. Its client workspaces keep each client’s campaigns and accounts together. A unified LinkedIn inbox lets the team handle replies across senders without using a separate login for every profile.

HeyReach Growth costs US$79 per sender per month with monthly billing below ten senders. At ten or more, the rate falls to US$59 per sender. The account count determines the bill even though campaigns are unlimited.

HeyReach Micro Agency adds white labeling and a shared seat pool with 25 sender seats for US$999 a month. For the three-sender team below, Growth costs US$237 a month and leaves less unused capacity to pay for.

3. Dripify

Best for: Individual sellers who want several campaigns and in-product replies below Expandi’s monthly seat price.

Dripify brand artwork with its GTM Street editorial score

Dripify Pro is the straightforward choice for lowering one seller’s subscription without giving up email. It costs US$79 per user per month with monthly billing, US$20 less than Expandi Business. Unlimited campaigns and a dedicated inbox are included. Its sequence builder combines LinkedIn and email actions with conditions and delays.

Dripify Basic costs US$59 per user per month on monthly billing, but limits you to one campaign and leaves out Pro’s dedicated inbox. For several audiences, Pro’s extra US$20 buys the campaign capacity and reply handling you’ll need.

Managing other sellers requires Dripify Advanced at US$99 per user per month with monthly billing. That matches Expandi Business’s seat price. Pro is the cheaper option for individual sellers; a team needing Advanced should choose on the campaign and management features rather than expect the same saving.

4. Waalaxy

Best for: Sellers who prefer established templates to designing a more elaborate sequence.

Waalaxy suits a seller using Expandi mainly for connection requests and straightforward follow-ups. Its ready-made sequences let you begin with a template and add your own messages. You don’t have to design an elaborate set of paths to get started.

Waalaxy Pro costs EUR39 per user per month with monthly billing. An extension handles parts of setup and prospect importing, while cloud execution keeps the campaign running when your laptop is off. Keeping Expandi’s email channel requires Waalaxy Business at EUR139 per user per month on monthly billing, an extra EUR100 over Pro. The dedicated Inbox costs extra too. Waalaxy is most appealing for its LinkedIn templates when you can use the less expensive plan.

5. Linked Helper

Best for: Solo operators prepared to manage a running device in exchange for a lower software bill.

Linked Helper can cut a solo seller’s software bill if keeping a computer running is practical. Its Local Standard license costs US$15 for one month. That includes sequences and contact management, with built-in chat for conversations. Shutting down the computer stops the automation, unlike Expandi’s hosted campaigns.

Each license covers one active LinkedIn account. More simultaneous senders need more licenses and a device setup that can run them. Local Pro raises the allowances for advanced actions and exports at US$45 for one month, an extra US$30 over Standard. For one account on existing equipment, Standard offers a substantial saving; moving several hosted accounts means taking responsibility for running their automation.

6. Dux-Soup

Best for: Sellers who want a choice between browser campaigns and hosted execution.

Dux-Soup’s lower price comes from Turbo, which runs through your browser. At US$55 per user per month with monthly billing, Turbo includes drip campaigns and centralized reply handling. Its campaign controls support several sequences. The cheaper Pro plan doesn’t include the same drip-campaign setup.

Turbo saves US$44 a month against Expandi Business if you can keep a suitable browser running. Dux-Soup Cloud removes that device requirement at US$99 per user per month with monthly billing. Cloud matches Expandi’s seat price and still needs a separate service for email. For a seller moving primarily to reduce costs, Turbo is the relevant choice and browser execution is the tradeoff.

7. Skylead

Best for: Sellers who use personalized images in combined LinkedIn and email sequences.

Skylead brand artwork

Skylead is a strong Expandi alternative when personalized media is part of your outreach. Its All-in-one plan includes image and GIF personalization at US$100 per seat per month with monthly billing. That’s US$1 above Expandi Business before Expandi’s media extras, making the included personalization more significant than the small seat-price difference.

The same Skylead subscription includes an email finder and verifier. Its smart sequences combine LinkedIn and email steps according to prospect actions, with cloud execution and a Smart Inbox for replies.

AI data enrichment and the AI SDR remain paid add-ons, and the agency inbox is separate from the ordinary per-seat Smart Inbox.

8. La Growth Machine

Best for: Teams sharing conversations that move between email and LinkedIn.

La Growth Machine brand artwork

When a colleague takes over a conversation, the last LinkedIn message may tell only half the story. La Growth Machine’s multichannel inbox puts the lead’s email and LinkedIn exchanges together.

La Growth Machine’s Pro plan costs EUR120 per sending “identity” per month with monthly billing. An identity is the person conducting outreach through connected accounts. Pro includes six active campaigns and five sending email accounts per identity, while a teammate who only answers messages doesn’t automatically need another sending identity.

Native HubSpot and Pipedrive synchronization requires Ultimate, though, so Pro covers the shared conversation view without that native CRM connection.

9. Meet Alfred

Best for: Sellers who want outreach and social publishing in the same workspace.

Meet Alfred brand artwork

Meet Alfred adds social publishing to the outreach purchase. Its Pro plan includes post scheduling alongside email and LinkedIn sequences with X automation. For someone managing both outbound messages and social posts, those extra tools are the reason to choose it over Expandi.

Meet Alfred Pro costs US$99 per user per month with monthly billing and includes unlimited campaigns with a Smart LinkedIn Inbox. It matches Expandi Business’s seat price. Meet Alfred Basic costs US$59 per user per month on monthly billing and allows three campaigns, but doesn’t include the same multichannel features. Team inbox management requires the separate Team offering. Pro fits one seller using the broader social features; colleagues sharing inbox management need the team plan instead.

What would three sender accounts cost?

Suppose three salespeople already have the LinkedIn accounts they will use. They need hosted campaigns and an inbox for their replies. On monthly billing, three Expandi Business subscriptions cost US$297 a month before paid extras.

RankToolPlan and quantityMonthly software totalDifference from three Expandi seats
1AimfoxThree Outreach seats, monthlyUS$147US$150 less; separate email platform

6Dux-SoupThree Cloud users, monthlyUS$297Same seat total; separate email platform
7SkyleadThree All-in-one seats, monthlyUS$300US$3 more; image and GIF personalization included

Aimfox saves US$150 a month on these three LinkedIn seats. For a team also using Expandi’s email steps, the saving needs to cover the separate email service it would keep or add. Our cold email software comparison helps price that part of the move.

Dripify’s US$60 monthly saving disappears if the team needs account management. Three Pro users cost US$237 a month, while three Advanced users cost US$297 on monthly billing. Advanced is the relevant plan when someone needs to manage the other sellers.

This team already has three accounts, so Aimfox Outreach covers the seats it needs without buying an Avatars package.

Map your sequence before replacing Expandi

Take one campaign you intend to keep and write out its actual paths. For a prospect who accepts a connection request, identify the next message. For someone who doesn’t, identify the alternative step and its delay. Then note whether either path needs email or personalized media.

Compare each path with the replacement’s builder. The condition and its position in the sequence both need to match the path you want to keep. The Expandi review is a useful reference for the capabilities you may want to retain.

Next, preserve the sender assigned to each ongoing conversation and keep replied prospects separate from fresh leads. Retain exclusions and suppression records before importing into another system. This lets you decide which conversations should continue manually and which prospects belong in a new sequence.

Aimfox is our pick for sharing LinkedIn campaigns across accounts. Skylead is the stronger option when you want image personalization included with both channels. If Expandi already runs the paths you need and neither feature would help, keeping the existing campaigns is a reasonable choice.

Frequently asked questions

Which Expandi alternative is cheaper for one sender?

Aimfox Outreach is US$49 per seat per month with monthly billing, and Dripify Pro is US$79 per user per month on the same terms. Both run in the cloud. Dripify includes email sequences, while Aimfox connects to a separately paid email platform.

Is Dux-Soup cheaper than Expandi?

Dux-Soup Turbo costs US$55 per user per month with monthly billing, but automation runs through your browser. Dux-Soup Cloud costs US$99 and runs independently of your device, matching Expandi Business's monthly seat price.

Which Expandi alternatives include email?

Dripify and Skylead include native email sequences. La Growth Machine Pro and Meet Alfred Pro also combine email with LinkedIn. Waalaxy requires Business for email, while Aimfox and HeyReach use separate connected sending platforms.

Can I move an Expandi campaign into another tool automatically?

A contact import may not preserve sequence conditions or campaign progress. Check the destination's import fields and rebuild the paths it cannot transfer. Keep replies and sender assignments available so ongoing conversations don't restart as fresh outreach.

Honorable mentions

PhantomBuster

PhantomBuster brand artwork

PhantomBuster is useful for extraction and automations feeding an outreach process. Its Start subscription is US$56 a month equivalent with US$672 billed annually, including five slots and 20 execution hours. It is a supporting option when data collection is the need, rather than a direct substitute for Expandi’s full inbox workflow.

lemlist
