Instantly vs Reachkit
Instantly has grown into a full sales platform. If you just want cold email that works, Reachkit might be a better fit.
Where Instantly Falls Short
Common feedback we hear from teams evaluating alternatives.
More Than You Might Need
Instantly now offers CRM, lead database, AI agents, and visitor tracking. Great if you need all that. But if you just want to send cold emails, you're paying for features you won't use. Reachkit focuses on one thing: cold email done well.
Growing Pains
As Instantly has scaled, some users report campaigns not sending as expected and support taking longer to respond. Reachkit is smaller and more focused, which means faster support and a more stable experience.
Multiple Products to Manage
Instantly now has separate pricing for Sending, Leads, and CRM. Each with their own dashboards and limits. If you prefer one product with one price, Reachkit keeps everything in one place.

What Reachkit Customers Say
Feedback from teams who evaluated both platforms.
"Instantly is a good product, it just became more than I needed. I was only using 20% of the features and the interface kept getting busier. Reachkit is exactly what I was looking for: simple cold email."
"I switched because I wanted something simpler, not because Instantly was bad. Reachkit just fits how I work better. Less clicking around, faster to get things done."
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions when comparing Instantly and Reachkit.
Is Instantly a bad product?
No. Instantly is a solid platform with a lot of features. But it's evolved into a full sales suite. If you want CRM, lead sourcing, and AI agents in one place, Instantly might be right for you. If you just want focused cold email, Reachkit is simpler.
What if I need a lead database?
We'd recommend using a dedicated tool like Apollo or Clay for leads. You'll get better data from specialists. Reachkit focuses on sending, not sourcing.
