The short version

  • Only Apollo.io has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Allego per-user-per-month pricing model with minimum annual upfront payment; Apollo.io everything is metered in credits, and the free Starter plan runs on them too, so prospecting volume is capped rather than the feature set
  • They diverge on capability: Allego covers Video learning, Apollo.io covers Contact database.
