Is Instantly.ai any good?
Based on the verified Instantly.ai reviews on platforms like G2 and Capterra, people tend to use it for creating marketing campaigns. Does Instantly.ai do a good job? Depends on who you ask.
While some reviews (especially older ones) are positive, some Instantly.ai customers say they have to deal with inefficient analytics and limited integration with other platforms every once in a while. While not necessarily a deal breaker for some, these issues may become annoying or disruptive to you in the long run.
“[Instantly.ai] really need to integrate gmail properly and not use app-password, they are not secure.”
What about Lemlist, then?
If you read what customers say about %competitorB%, you'll see that most of them have been using it for %usecaseB% for a while now.
But in recent %competitorB% reviews we see customers complain about %problemB% more and more often.
This may not be the best sign for people looking for a reliable tool.
“Our team needs to deal with Lemlist's bug on weekly basis. In short, new week - new bug.”
Which one should you pick?
If neither Instantly.ai nor Lemlist feels like a perfect fit, and you're looking for a powerful cold email tool that can scale, you might want to consider QuickMail.
In fact, we'll pay you to try QuickMail.

4x more meetings
Switching to QuickMail will get you better results.
Here's Rachel, who saw a 4X increase in booked meetings after starting the switch to QuickMail from Lemlist. And they're not even done moving their 900 inboxes to us.
“Incredible software, incredible support... this is one of the most reliable and well built platforms I use.”
Scale campaigns easily and quickly
With QuickMail, you’re not limited to a single inbox per campaign. We're one of the few Instantly.ai or Lemlist alternatives to have inbox rotation.
Just add an inbox (or five) to your existing campaign and we’ll spread the load across several inboxes. That way, you can increase the daily sending limit of a campaign without endangering your deliverability. All that with a single click.
Plus, you'll see how much easier it becomes to run AB-tests and make tweaks on a single campaign instead of a dozen.
Don't let Instantly.ai or Lemlist put you at risk
When cold outreach is a crucial part of your business, the last thing you want to deal with is %competitor% having stability issues.
QuickMail has been around since 2014, and we've invested heavily into making our software as stable and reliable as possible.
In fact, we're spending an outsized amount of time learning from our mistakes and incidents to make sure those won't happen twice. And we have our uptime to show for it.
Enjoy top-notch deliverability
If %competitor% isn't delivering the emails that you send, nothing else will matter. QuickMail is laser-focused on getting your emails into people’s inboxes – from the way we handle sending to monitoring the health of your inbox.
QuickMail is one of the few cold outreach platforms allowed to send with Gmail's approved sending API. That means better deliverability for any emails going to Google email addresses.
Pair that with a free email warm-up integration for all accounts and you're set to stay out of spam.
Enjoy 2-way sync with your CRM
Does Instantly.ai or Lemlist make it a pain to work with your CRM? QuickMail makes it a non-issue.
With our best-in-class HubSpot and Pipedrive (coming soon) integrations, you'll never have to worry about prospect data being out-of-date.
Sync people's personal details, contact information, tags, and custom attributes without having to waste your time double-checking if the info is updated in either system.
Enjoy the (truly) best support
Does Instantly.ai or Lemlist support insult you by using canned replies, templates, or asking you to turn on and off your computer?
We won't. Our customer support is in the business of solving problems, not marking tickets closed.
“Lemlist was exorbitantly expensive, and we saw diminishing returns on results. Instantly nearly killed our business. And Apollo is a great contact site, but doesn't have the ability to land in inboxes the way QuickMail does. ”
