Outscraper Alternative: ContactEra with Built-in Email Enrichment

Outscraper: the Maps scraping specialist

Outscraper specializes in Google Maps data extraction. Strengths: fast, simple interface. Limits: no email enrichment, no website crawling.

The missing piece: email

Outscraper gives you names, addresses, phones and websites. But not emails. You need a second tool. ContactEra does everything in one workflow.

Price comparison

Outscraper: ~$2/1000 results (no emails). Adding emails via Hunter: +$30/month. Total: ~$35 for 1000 leads with emails.

ContactEra: €8 for 2000 credits = 1000 leads with emails. 4x cheaper and all-in-one.

Outscraper in detail

Outscraper is a cloud service specialized in Google Maps data extraction. Its interface is simple: enter a query ("Restaurant Paris"), choose the number of results, and Outscraper runs the extraction server-side. No installation needed.

Results include: name, address, phone, website, Google rating, review count, hours and category. For pure scraping, it's efficient. Price is competitive: about $2 per 1,000 results.

The missing piece: email

Outscraper extracts data displayed on Google Maps. But Google Maps doesn't display emails. To get emails, you need an additional step: visit each website and search for the email on Contact pages, Legal pages and in source code.

Outscraper doesn't do this. You get a list with websites but no emails. To add emails, you need a second tool (Hunter.io, Snov.io) then manually match the data. Two tools, two subscriptions, extra work.

Real cost comparison for 1,000 leads with emails

Outscraper + Hunter.io: Outscraper: 1,000 results = ~$2. Hunter.io Starter plan: $34/month (500 searches). For 1,000 emails: Growth plan at $104/month. Total: ~$106 + manual matching time.

ContactEra: 2,000 credits = €8 = 1,000 businesses with Maps extraction + email enrichment included. 13x cheaper and zero manual work.
