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.
Less Annoying CRM
- There is no free tier, only a single $15 per user per month price
- File storage is capped at 25 GB per user
- The vendor advises staying below 50,000 total contacts, so very large databases sit outside the intended use even though no hard limit is enforced
