Cognism Pricing & Plans Explained (2024)

Ilse Van Rensburg

The most important factor when choosing a sales intelligence platform has got to be cost. 

 

And it’s no different when it comes to Cognism pricing. 

 

In this article, we’re exploring:

 

  • How much does Cognism charge?
  • The difference between its packages.
  • Who the platform is best for.
  • Plus, the best alternative for individual contributors and SMBS.

Read on for a deep dive into the Cognism pricing structure. 👇

How much does Cognism cost?

Cognism does not openly disclose its pricing, and sources across the web estimate vastly different and outdated numbers.

 

However, we can tell you that Cognism is pricier than competitors, such as Lusha, since the packages are bespoke and do not operate on a credit-based model. A big plus - you don’t need to purchase credits to view data or run page-level exports. 

 

If you’re considering signing up for a Cognism subscription, you’re probably wondering if it’s worth it. 

 

If you’re a larger business looking to scale in Europe - then yes, it is!

 

Cognism is a leading provider of complete data in EMEA and quality cell phone numbers in the US. Moreover, its premium phone-verified cell phone dataset helps you connect with 87% of your list.

 

It makes sense to choose Cognism over tools like Lusha and ZoomInfo not only because of the great dataset but also because it’s GDPR and CCPA-compliant.

👉 If you’re a smaller company looking for data that’s just as accurate in Europe, you might want to consider Kaspr. 

Kaspr is an all-in-one tool that provides the most accurate contact data and seamless workflow integration. Specializing in European data, it allows you to connect with the right decision-makers to accelerate your European growth strategy at an affordable price point.

How does Cognism pricing work?

Cognism offers customized pricing based on your business needs. This means pricing will vary based on the size of your team and your business. You’ll also be charged a flat platform license fee covering data maintenance, set-up, onboarding, and 24/7 live chat support. 

 

The pricing model is worth it for larger businesses because Cognism does not charge credits to view or export data, and all integrations are included in the Platinum and Diamond packages. 

 

Here’s a bit more detail: 

 

  • A profile view is registered when a complete profile is seen or information about the contact is accessed from a search result.
  • Cognism packages provide unlimited views and allow individual record exporting (one at a time) and page-level exporting (up to 25 records).
  • Sales users can freely browse the database and select the most suitable decision-makers and data to export to their systems without concerns about credits.


Great news if you’re an Enterprise business looking to build tailored and accurate prospecting lists!

But what if you’re an SDR on an SMB sales team trying to hit target?  

Then Kaspr is your go-to!

Does Cognism offer a free trial?

Otherwise, you can visit the demo center for walkthroughs on using Cognism for prospecting, enrichment, intent data and more. 

Is Cognism worth the price?

If you’re a large organization, then yes, Cognism is worth the price!

 

The credit structure, verified cell phone (mobile) numbers, strict adherence to compliance and added features like enrichment, AI search, Intent data and Diamonds-on-Demand® make it well worth the investment. 

 

If you’re a smaller company or individual contributor looking to grow, Cognism’s sibling, Kaspr, is the way to go. 👇

Kaspr is a Cognism company

Kaspr offers unlimited access to B2B email addresses, and our data provides direct business phone numbers so you can start speaking with key decision-makers immediately.

 

Even better, Kaspr seamlessly integrates with LinkedIn and Sales Navigator. This means users can take advantage of the native filters, features and communities to build highly targeted lists while Kaspr gives them the contact data.

Why choose Kaspr instead?

Kaspr is an excellent choice if Cognism pricing is too high for your team. 

Other reasons why you should choose Kaspr: 

 

  • You’re an individual sales professional, recruiter or SMB who primarily requires access to contact information for potential prospects and talent.
  • You can handle your own targeting without needing a separate tool to calculate your Total Addressable Market (TAM) or to create account and contact lists.
  • You require basic tool integrations such as HubSpot, Pipedrive, Lemlist, and some Salesforce exporting capabilities, but your technology stack does not include Outreach or Salesloft.
  • You need accurate and verified contact information (emails and cell numbers).
  • Your primary focus is on obtaining accurate contact information on LinkedIn.
  • Your organization is satisfied with GDPR alignment and existing terms, and there is no need for a custom legal review.

One of the best buying experiences I’ve had was with Kaspr.”

“All we care about is getting phone numbers, so I also love that Kaspr previews what information I will get when I press reveal. That’s amazing because it means your credits are actually valuable.”
