Features compared
Winner: Lemlist. It covers far more channels and includes data.
Lemlist offers email, LinkedIn (including voice messages and InMail), calls and SMS, with WhatsApp as an add-on. It adds a 650M+ database, warm-up, a deliverability hub and AI agents. For a team that wants one platform for every touchpoint, it is the more complete product.
Waalaxy does fewer things and keeps them simple: LinkedIn sequences, an email finder and, on Business, cold email. It has no database, warm-up, calls or SMS on its pages. If LinkedIn is where your prospects reply, much of Lemlist's extra breadth may go unused.
Pricing compared
Winner: Waalaxy for LinkedIn outreach. Lemlist for email-only teams.
| Need | Lemlist | Waalaxy |
|---|---|---|
| LinkedIn only, one person | $109, or $87 billed yearly (Multichannel) | €19 (Pro) |
| LinkedIn plus email, one person | $109, or $87 billed yearly (Multichannel) | €69 (Business) |
| Email only, a team of five | $69, or $55 billed yearly (Email, unlimited users) | Not offered without LinkedIn |
| LinkedIn plus email, three people | $327, or $261 billed yearly | €207 |
For LinkedIn, Waalaxy is much cheaper per person. For a pure email team, Lemlist's Email plan with unlimited users is strong value. Lemlist users who need more contact data pay for enrichment credits on top, and Waalaxy users who want replies in the tool pay for the inbox add-on.
Safety and account limits
Winner: Lemlist on email deliverability. Waalaxy says more about LinkedIn limits.
LinkedIn's user agreement does not allow third-party automation, so no tool is risk-free on LinkedIn. Cold email has its own risk: poor deliverability can damage your domain.
Lemlist
On email, Lemlist lists lemwarm warm-up, a deliverability hub, rotating IPs, inbox rotation and a custom tracking domain. On LinkedIn, its pricing page does not describe limits, delays or IPs, and its LinkedIn features run through the Multichannel plan, which includes Chrome extensions.
Waalaxy
Waalaxy caps invitations at 300 a month on Pro and 800 on Advanced and Business, and describes human-like timing within LinkedIn's limits. It does not describe proxies, warm-up or email deliverability tools.

Ease of use
Winner: Waalaxy.
Waalaxy is designed to be quick to learn. You pick a ready-made sequence, import leads and start, and plan limits are easy to read.
Lemlist does more, so there is more to set up: mailboxes, warm-up, database searches, LinkedIn steps and possibly calls. Teams that use all of it gain a lot, but a solo LinkedIn user may find it more than they need.
Integrations and support
Winner: Lemlist.
Lemlist lists HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zapier, Make, n8n, Clay, Aircall and Ringover, plus an API, CLI and MCP, with CRM integrations on both paid plans. Waalaxy syncs with HubSpot and Pipedrive on every plan and adds an API and Make, Zapier and n8n modules from €49 Advanced.
For support, Lemlist's Enterprise plan includes an account manager, and Waalaxy's Business plan lists priority support. Neither page describes support hours on lower plans.
Which one should you choose?
Choose Lemlist if email is central to your outreach, you need a contact database and warm-up, or you want email, LinkedIn, calls and SMS in one place and the budget allows.
Choose Waalaxy if LinkedIn is your channel and cost matters most, with email as an extra on the Business plan.
What to check during the free trial
- Where your replies come from: look at your last 50 replies and count how many came from email versus LinkedIn.
- Seat count: price Lemlist Multichannel per user against Waalaxy per user at the team size you expect.
- Data needs: if you lack contact data, Lemlist's database matters; if you prospect from LinkedIn searches, it may not.
- Add-ons: include Lemlist enrichment credits or Waalaxy's inbox add-on if you will use them.
Other options: Lemlist alternative and Waalaxy alternative.
A third option: Hollerly
Hollerly is LinkedIn-first like Waalaxy, adds email from your own mailbox like Lemlist, and costs less than either for that combination. It runs in a dedicated cloud browser with its own IP in your country, and Claude writes each message from the lead's profile, latest post and company website. Replies on either channel stop the sequence and land in one inbox.
When Hollerly is the better pick
- You want LinkedIn plus email for $49 on Pro, against $109 per user for Lemlist Multichannel.
- You want AI to write the whole message from research, not only templates.
- You want replies tagged by intent with AI draft answers and a pipeline board.
When it isn't
- You need a lead database, email warmup, calls, SMS or WhatsApp. Lemlist has them; Hollerly does not.
- You send high email volume. Hollerly sends at a low daily volume from your own mailbox, up to 100 a day.
- You only want the cheapest LinkedIn tool. Waalaxy Pro at €19 and Hollerly Starter at $19 cost about the same, and Waalaxy's trial is longer.
