Mailshake is a cold email and sales engagement tool with AI email writing, a data finder and HubSpot and Salesforce integrations. Starter is $29/mo, Email Outreach $49/mo and Sales Engagement $99/mo per user billed monthly ($25, $45 and $85 billed yearly), and there is no free trial. If you want to test before you pay, send from many mailboxes on one plan or add LinkedIn steps to your sequences, these are the cold email tools we track. Mailshake publishes its pricing (Starter $29/mo, Email Outreach $49/mo, Sales Engagement $99/mo per user billed monthly ($25, $45, $85 billed yearly)), so the usual reason to look around is fit: a different feature focus, CRM, or price point.

Order: tools with public pricing first, then those matching Mailshake's CRM support, then free plans. This is not a quality ranking. Data checked on vendor sites on 2026-10-23.
None of the alternatives we list confirms a free plan on its pricing page. Several offer a free trial; see the table above.
6 of the 6 alternatives publish prices, including lemlist, Reply.io, Smartlead and Saleshandy. The rest quote through sales. Prices were checked on each vendor's own pricing page.
lemlist, Reply.io, Smartlead and Saleshandy confirm both HubSpot and Salesforce integrations on their own sites. "Unknown" in the table means we could not confirm it, not that it is missing.
Buy the sending infrastructure; mailbox rotation, warmup and deliverability are not a DIY job. Use n8n to sync replies and meetings to the CRM.
