Saleshandy vs SmartReach.io pricing
Every price is the monthly rate, with the annual rate per month in brackets on both sides. Saleshandy meters emails sent as well as active prospects, so to price the same reach this page assumes 3 emails per prospect a month. An email-only buyer and a multichannel buyer get different answers, so both are priced separately.
Email outreach, priced on the same monthly reach
A team on email only, priced on the number of prospects it reaches a month, monthly billing on both sides with annual rates in brackets. Saleshandy meters emails as well as active prospects, so its plan is the one that covers both at 3 emails per prospect a month

| At 50,000 a month | $89/mo ($79 annually) | $189/mo ($149 annually) |
At 50,000 prospects a month SmartReach.io is $100 a month less than Saleshandy, and at 100,000 it is $100 less.

A team of five on email, LinkedIn and calls
Five users running email, LinkedIn and calling in one motion, monthly billing on both sides. SmartReach.io Sales Engagement Plus with a LinkedIn account and a calling seat for each user, against Saleshandy Pro, which includes 10 users, with its Dialer Pro add-on
| Line | SmartReach.io | Saleshandy |
|---|---|---|

Saleshandy is $114 a month less for five users, and its total includes 2,500 calling credits, about 1,350 minutes of US calling before recording and transcription. What it does not include is LinkedIn automation. Its LinkedIn steps are manual tasks, and automating them means paying for Aimfox or HeyReach on top. SmartReach.io's $282 automates LinkedIn for all five users inside the same sequence.
Competitor pricing checked 2026-11-02. Prices change often, so check the vendor's own pricing page before planning a migration around one. Saleshandy pricing. SmartReach.io figures come from our pricing page, which is the source of truth for them. No per-seat pricing. Plans scale by active prospects, and every plan above Basic includes unlimited users and unlimited sending email accounts.
Where SmartReach.io is the better choice
Four places the difference is real rather than marketing, each one checkable against the two pricing pages.
Less for the same reach, from 50,000 prospects up
Priced on the same monthly reach, 50,000 prospects cost $89 a month on SmartReach.io Email Outreach Plus ($79 annually) and $189 on Saleshandy Scale ($149 annually), because Saleshandy Pro stops at 30,000 active prospects. At 100,000 prospects and 3 emails each, it is $199 ($179) against $299 ($239).
No email meter above Basic
Saleshandy meters emails sent on every plan, 100,000 a month on Pro and 200,000 to 600,000 on Scale, so adding a step to a sequence can push a team up a tier. SmartReach.io meters prospects reached and stops counting emails above Basic, so a longer sequence to the same list costs nothing more.
LinkedIn is automated, not a task on a list
Saleshandy documents its LinkedIn steps as tasks a rep completes by hand, or as a hand-off to a separately paid Aimfox or HeyReach account. SmartReach.io runs LinkedIn natively inside the same conditional sequence as email, so a no-reply can branch to a connection request without anybody touching it and without a second tool to pay for.
A longer trial, and verification included
A 14-day free trial covering 200 prospects with no credit card, against Saleshandy's 7-day trial capped at 100 emails. Email verification runs on every SmartReach.io plan at no extra cost, where Saleshandy grants a one-time block of verification credits per plan and charges beyond it.
Where Saleshandy is the better choice
Every comparison page on the internet says its author wins. Here is where this one does not, so you can weigh the parts that matter to you rather than take our word for the whole thing.
Cheaper for a small sender, and on annual billing up to 30,000
For about 2,000 prospects a month, Saleshandy Starter is $41 ($34 annually). SmartReach.io Email Outreach Basic is $29 for 1,000, and the next plan up is $89. On annual billing, Saleshandy Pro covers up to 30,000 active prospects for $76 a month, against $79 on SmartReach.io.
Cheaper for a multichannel team that works LinkedIn by hand
Five users on Saleshandy Pro with its Dialer Pro add-on pay $168 a month, including 2,500 calling credits, against $282 on SmartReach.io excl. call charges. The difference is LinkedIn. If your reps are happy to complete LinkedIn steps as manual tasks, Saleshandy is the lower bill.
SOC 2 and ISO 27001
Saleshandy lists SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance on its trust center. SmartReach.io is GDPR compliant, with two-factor authentication, role-based access and encryption in transit and at rest, but holds no SOC 2 report. If one is a procurement requirement, that difference is real and it favours Saleshandy.
Unlimited active prospects, and a larger database
Saleshandy Scale removes the active-prospect limit, though emails stay metered; SmartReach.io Email Outreach Scale covers 500,000 prospects. Saleshandy also bundles a 852M+ contact database with a monthly credit allowance on every plan, larger than the 300M+ contacts SmartReach.io includes.
Mailboxes are cheaper at low volume
On a handful of Google or Microsoft 365 mailboxes with an annual commitment, Saleshandy is $2.99 each against $4 on SmartReach.io. It closes at volume: an Azure tenant of 50 mailboxes plus a domain is $35 a month on SmartReach.io, about $0.70 a mailbox. For five mailboxes Saleshandy wins; for fifty, SmartReach.io does.
White-label for agencies
Saleshandy white-labels the platform under an agency's own brand and domain. SmartReach.io does not white-label; client dashboards carry the SmartReach.io brand and are priced per client. For an agency that resells under its own name, Saleshandy covers something SmartReach.io does not.

Switching in an afternoon
Nothing here needs a migration project or a call with sales.
Bring your prospects across
Export from Saleshandy as CSV and import directly, or move contacts through the API. Field mapping is saved after the first run.
Rebuild sequences, keep the logic
Subsequences and conditional drips model the same branching, so the logic you designed transfers. Steps are rebuilt in the editor rather than imported, which is usually an afternoon.
Turn the LinkedIn tasks into automation
The LinkedIn steps you have been doing by hand, or in a separate tool, become automated steps in the same sequence. This is the part of the move that changes how the day works.
Protect deliverability through the switch
Connect your existing mailboxes, run free warmup on them, turn on inbox rotation and use soft start so volume ramps. Reputation follows the domain, not the platform. The 14-day free trial lets you run both in parallel first.
