Sentrama vs Apollo.

Apollo pricing, answered.Then compare it with ours.

Apollo is genuinely good at email-led outbound: a huge contact database, sequencing and CRM sync in one per-seat subscription. Sentrama runs a different model built for the calling channel: leads and data bought pay-as-you-go, the platform included, and teams running 15+ human connects an hour* on our leads.

A connect means a live human answering your rep, not a voicemail, not a machine. Counted per rep, per hour, on a dashboard you'll watch during the demo.

Apollo pricing, July 2026.

What Apollo actually costs.

Apollo publishes its seat prices, which is to its credit. The full bill takes more reading: the parallel dialer is a team-level add-on, dialer minutes bill per second, and credit allowances expire every month.

Here is their pricing. Straight answers, no demo wall.

The real questionSee what this pricing does not buy.The prices are real. So is the gap between them and a booked meeting.
Apollo plans and pricing as of 5 July 2026
PlanPriceBasisThe fine print
Free$0per user/moRoughly 100 data credits and 5 mobile reveals a month, 10 export credits, 2 active sequences, Gmail-only email linking.Published on apollo.io/pricing
Basic$49 annual / $59 monthlyper user/mo75 mobile credits and 1,000 export credits a month. Credit allowances vary across third-party breakdowns; all expire monthly.Price published on apollo.io/pricing; credit figures per Salesmotion (Jun 2026) and SalesHandy (Mar 2026)

Organization$119 annual / $149 monthlyper user/mo, 3-seat minimum200 mobile credits a month, international dialing, custom reports, advanced API. Seat counts can't be reduced mid-contract.Price published on apollo.io/pricing
Advanced Dialer add-on$149/mo ($119/mo annual)per team, on top of seatsThe parallel dialer lives here, not in any seat price: up to 5 lines, minimum 2 connected dialer credits, dialer minutes billed per second on top.Published on apollo.io/product/dialer
Inbound add-on$149/mo (est.)*per teamVisitor identification and form enrichment, sold separately from seats.* Estimated: cited by SalesHandy pricing analysis (25 Mar 2026), not on Apollo's public price list

A 5-rep team on Professional annual pays roughly $395 a month in seats plus $119 a month for the dialer add-on, about $514 a month (around $6,170 a year) before credit overages, dialer minutes and data top-ups. Third-party analyses put realistic all-in cost for calling-heavy teams at $150 to $400 per user per month (Salesmotion, Jun 2026; SalesHandy, Mar 2026).

Why the number moved.

The maths of cold calling changed in a year.

The seat price is the easy part to read. What it buys got harder: connect rates halved, phones started screening unknown callers by default, and fresh numbers get flagged before the first dial.

The part nobody sells you.

Apollo sells you the pieces.Meetings need the machine.

In 2026 the gap between seats and credits and a booked meeting is everything else. Cold-call connect rates have halved to 2.3 percent. iOS 26 screens unknown callers by default. A third of brand-new caller IDs get flagged before the first dial. Most of the pieces do exist somewhere inside Apollo, rationed by tier and assembled by you: mobile credits capped, the dialer a separate add-on, no pickup-likelihood queue, no screener stripping. Nobody in that stack is optimising the one number that matters. Seats and credits alone do not survive contact.

Sentrama versus Apollo.

Apollo is an email-led platform with a dialer add-on. Sentrama is a calling platform where the leads, the dialer and the coaching arrive together.

What switchers say.

Why calling-heavy teams look elsewhere.

Recurring themes in public reviews of Apollo, 2024 to 2026. Paraphrased, not quoted.

Data accuracy

Stale contacts and email bounce rates that users report anywhere from 15 to 35% depending on geography and industry, with accuracy complaints rising through 2025.

Seen across G2 reviews, Reddit, 2026 review roundups

Credits burn, then vanish

Monthly credits run out faster than expected, don't roll over, and the fix on offer is always a higher tier or paid top-ups.

Seen across Reddit, G2 reviews

Billing and cancellation disputes

Charges without clear notice, auto-renewal surprises and difficulty cancelling: the main driver of Apollo's roughly 2.9/5 Trustpilot score, versus its 4.7/5 on G2.

Seen across Trustpilot

Slow, ticket-only support

Lower tiers report long response times and unresolved issues, with no faster channel available without upgrading.

Seen across Trustpilot, G2 reviews

Numbers flagged as spam

Dialer numbers get flagged 'Spam Likely' after sustained high-volume calling, tanking pickup rates until the user manually swaps in a new number.

Seen across Reddit, third-party dialer reviews citing Apollo's own help docs

Fair play.

Where Apollo genuinely wins.

  • Breadth per dollar at the entry level is genuinely unmatched: a 230M-contact B2B database, email sequencing, enrichment, a dialer and light CRM in one tool from $49 per user per month, plus a functional free plan. That consolidates what would otherwise be three to five subscriptions.
  • Email-first outbound is mature and well integrated: sequences, deliverability tooling, intent data, workflow automation and deep Salesforce/HubSpot syncs, backed by a large ecosystem and a 4.7/5 G2 rating across 9,000+ reviews.
  • Data coverage for standard B2B email prospecting, especially US tech and SMB segments, is broad enough that many teams never need a separate data vendor for email addresses.

If your outbound is primarily email-led, and you need a huge self-serve database, multichannel sequencing, intent data and CRM sync in one subscription with calling as a secondary channel at modest volume, stay on Apollo. It's the teams doing high-volume cold calling as the primary channel who feel the add-on dialer fees, the mobile-credit rationing and the spam-flagged numbers.

Switch, or run both.

You don't have to choose today.

Keep Apollo

Bring the exports, keep the subscription

Keep your Apollo subscription and bring the exports you already pay for. We run them through any step of our pipeline, qualification, reachability scoring, pickup validation, priced per record, with full platform access included with the work.

The outcome.

Book the most amount of sales meetings by speaking to as many humans as possible.

15+ human connects per rep-hour.

Some teams convert that into up to 6 booked meetings an hour.

In fact they have overdelivered what we forecast for the PoC, so we're very happy. The key is constant communication both ways, which Sentrama do really well.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs).

The questions Apollo switchers ask.

How much does Apollo actually cost?
Apollo publishes per-seat prices: Free, then Basic at $49, Professional at $79 and Organization at $119 per user per month on annual billing, with monthly billing roughly 20% higher. The parallel dialer is not in any seat price: it is the Advanced Dialer add-on at $149 per month ($119 annual) bought at team level, plus per-second dialer minutes and credit top-ups. Third-party analyses put realistic all-in cost for calling-heavy teams at $150 to $400 per user per month (Salesmotion, June 2026; SalesHandy, March 2026).
How is Sentrama's pricing different from Apollo's?
Apollo charges per seat, with monthly credit allowances on top and the parallel dialer sold as a team-level add-on plus per-second minute billing. Sentrama charges per record: you buy leads or individual pipeline steps pay-as-you-go, and the platform, dialer, coaching, CRM and reporting come with the work. You never pay for the software. No per-seat fees, no seat minimums, no multi-year contracts.
Can I use Sentrama alongside my Apollo subscription?
Yes. Keep Apollo, bring your exports, and we run them through any step of our pipeline, priced per record, with full platform access included with the work. Your existing data spend isn't wasted, and your reps dial one clean, pickup-ordered queue.
Do I have to cancel Apollo to try Sentrama?
No. Many teams run both during the 200-lead proof of concept: Apollo for email-led outbound, Sentrama for the calling channel, side by side on the same market. The dashboard shows the connects and meetings from each, and you decide with the numbers in front of you.
Where does Sentrama's data come from, and is it GDPR and TPS compliant?
We source and verify B2B contact data ourselves, score every record for pickup likelihood, and strip AI screeners before a rep ever dials. UK numbers are screened against the TPS before any dial, and processing is designed for GDPR and PECR compliance.
What happens on the demo?
We walk you through the platform on a segment of your market. Your exact per-lead and per-record prices are sized to your market, and if you bring your Apollo exports we'll run the comparison on your own list.
