Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Streak

  • The free tier is email tools only, with pipelines, contact records and automation all requiring the Pro plan
  • Free mail merge is capped at 50 a day
  • The entry paid plan is $49 per user per month, which is high for a CRM that lives inside Gmail
  • Integrations require a paid plan

Woodpecker

  • LinkedIn outreach, extra warm-ups and API access are all separate paid add-ons rather than bundled features.
  • Pay-per-contacted-prospect pricing can be harder to predict than flat per-seat plans at high volume.
  • Exceeding the contacted-prospect limit halts new sends until the plan is topped up.
  • Lacks the built-in calling/SMS channels that some multichannel competitors offer.
