When to choose port587 over Apollo

Your ICP is 100% B2B SaaS and you're tired of filtering out non-SaaS companies.
You already use a sequencer (Instantly, Smartlead, Lemlist) and don't need Apollo's CRM/sequences.
You want pay-per-lead instead of a monthly subscription you might underuse.
You care about SaaS-specific filters - product category, funding stage, go-to-market motion.

When Apollo is the better choice

You sell to many industries, not just SaaS.
You want an all-in-one platform - CRM, sequencing, and data in one place.
You use Apollo's unique features like intent signals, job change alerts, or the dialer.

For teams focused exclusively on B2B SaaS outbound, port587 typically delivers a cleaner list at a lower cost. For teams that need broad B2B coverage and an integrated platform, Apollo remains strong.
