It is a prospecting and customer relationship management (CRM) tool.
It is used by sales teams for prospecting.

humanlinker dashboard

It has an intelligent scoring feature, which allows you to prioritize the most promising prospects. 🔥

Here are the main features in a nutshell: 👇🏼

  • Personalized interactions ⭢ precise tracking of contacts with suggestions for a more personalized approach. 🦋
  • Task automationautomation of follow-ups, reminders. 🔄
  • Lead scoring ⭢ intelligence analysis to prioritize the hottest leads. 🔥
  • CRM integration ⭢ Hubspot, Salesforce.
💡

💡 This tool is particularly used by B2B sales teams, SMEs, sales managers or growing startups.

Well, I’m not going to tell you everything at once, we need to leave some suspense for the rest of the article. 👀

Our opinion of the tool

Humanlinker is a powerful tool with many useful features for prospecting and lead management. Obviously, intelligent scoring and task automation are must-haves, especially for any sales team looking to sell quickly and cleanly. 👀

However, I find that some features are missin, let me explain. 👇🏼

Multi-campaign management or integration with social prospecting tools would be a big plus, to make the tool complete. 😇
Also, despite the fact that the interface is simple and easy to use, we miss this more advanced customization to create your own campaign. 💬

It lacks certain features that I feel are important for prospecting:

  • Importing leads from Sales Navigator.
  • Drip marketing campaign (personalized message scenarios triggered by prospect interaction).
  • LinkedIn security limit.
  • Predefined prospecting plan.

If you’re looking for features specific, there’s an alternative that I think you might like: Waalaxy. 👽

Let’s explore this tool in more detail right away. 🔎

What features do you have in common and what are the differences?

Before finding out which tool is best suited to your strategy, we thought doing the commonalities and differences would be perfect for your final choice. ✨

1) Automated prospecting campaigns

What better way to start this comparison than by launching a campaign on each of the two tools? Let’s go ! 👇🏼

What Humanlinker offers

The “Create a campaign” button appears in your side menu, so you can’t miss it.

Inside, you’ll find 5 steps:

  • 1️⃣ Configuration.
  • 2️⃣ Steps.
  • 3️⃣ Contacts.
  • 4️⃣ Enrichment.
  • 5️⃣ Preview and send.
humanlinker campaign

Here, you’ll be able to enter the name of your campaign, the language of the message, its objective (getting an appointment, recruiting talent or promoting your solution/service) and finally, your value proposition.

💡

This step is important, as it will be used to generate future prospecting messages so be as clear and precise as possible.

On the left, you have access to other parameters such as your account selection, the sending schedule and the personalization of your e-mail signature. 📨

Once you’ve completed all this, you can move on to the next step. Here, Humanlinker shows you what your sequence looks like. You’re free to modify it as you see fit. 😇

humanlinker

Then you can move on to the contact stage. There are several ways to find them:

  • Contact recommendation: the tool will automatically generate contacts that match your sales strategy.
  • Linkedin import.
  • CSV import.
  • CRM import.

For my part, I chose to trust the tool and test its contact recommendation. 🪄

humanlinker

Once you’ve selected your contacts, you have a whole enrichment section. This is where you fill in additional information on your prospects to better qualify them and personalize your interactions. 🫱🏽‍🫲🏼

humanlinker

What Waalaxy offers

When you’re on the dashboard, click on “Start a campaign” and choose the sequence of your choice (there are over 99 models, with different levels and use cases).

humanlinker and waalaxy

Once you’ve chosen your campaign, you can rename it (this step is optional, but we recommend you do so to avoid getting lost among all your future campaigns).

Next, you have several options for adding leads:

  • 1️⃣ From your lists (if they’ve already been completed).
  • 2️⃣ By auto-import (when someone interacts with your LinkedIn account).
  • 3️⃣ Directly from LinkedIn (via Chrome extension).
humanlinker and waalaxy

Once your leads have been imported, you can add a note. 📝

💡

At this point, you can adjust the delay before the next action, with a range from 0 to 28 days. 📆

2) Message customization and scripting

Now that we’ve set up the campaign, all we need to do is write our messages and we’ll be good to go. 😇

What Humanlinker offers

As you can see, the interface here is a little different from other tools.

Why? 🤔

Because one of the special features of Humanlinker is that the tool writes for you, the message sent to your prospect, and does so for every prospect. 🔥
Each message generated is dedicated to one prospect.
Thanks to AI, the tool analyzes experiences, personality and other useful information and transforms it into a 100% personalized message.

humanlinker review

As you can see, this feature sounds attractive, but it’s problematic because you have to manually click on each lead.

It’s impractical, time-consuming, and prevents you from taking control of your sales pitch and copywriting.

💡

Unfortunately, there’s no in-between at Humanlinker. You can either write your message from A to Z, or have it written for you without any control.

And then all you have to do is send all your messages and off you go, the campaign is launched! 🍃

What Waalaxy offers

Here you can write any message you like! ⬇️

waalaxy - waami

In addition to variables, you have an assistant, called Waami (isn’t cute? 🤖 ), who helps you instantly write your personalized message.

To do this, you need to add the following information:

  • 🎯 Target.
  • 💭 Value proposition.
  • 🦋 Differentiating element.
  • 🔘 Call to action.

This will not only save you time, but also allow you to have messages that you might not have originally considered. 😇

Finally, all you have to do is click on “Launch my campaign”! 🔥

3) Response management and engagement rate tracking

Now that your campaigns have been launched, and you’ve waited a little while for feedback, it’s finally time to respond to your prospects and analyze whether or not your campaign worked. 👀

What Humanlinker offers

This tool has built-in LinkedIn messaging, so you can reply directly to prospects without going to LinkedIn.

💡

This is a messenger dedicated to your campaigns, your current messages on LinkedIn will not be displayed.

humanlinker inbox

On the left, you have your prospects, in the middle, the conversation and on the right, a detail of your prospect with always, his personality and other information. ℹ️

We always find this personality side, how to talk to your prospect, and this can direct your response. 😇

Then, if we go to the “Analysis of our campaign” section, we’ll be able to find a lot of information.

humanlinker dashboard

If, at first glance, you think there’s far too much information, here are my top 4 to remember:

  • 1️⃣ Open rate.
  • 2️⃣ Response rate.
  • 3️⃣ LinkedIn channel.
  • 4️⃣ Step-by-step analysis.
💡

This data is also available on your home page, but it’s a global analysis and not by campaign. If you wish to view it by campaign, you’ll have to go to each one.

What Waalaxy offers

Like Humanlinker, when you’re on the home page, you have access to your campaign statistics. A little extra here, you can choose a specific campaign. 🔥

waalaxy dashboard

Note that you have different indicators depending on the channel of your campaign. 👇🏼

LinkedIn channel:

  • 🔵 Invitations accepted with acceptance rate.
  • 🔵 Replies to a message with response rate.
  • 🔵 Details of actions in graph form (CSV download possible).

Mail channel:

  • 🟣 Emails delivered with deliverability rate.
  • 🟣 Replies with response rate.
  • 🟣 Undelivered emails with bounce rate.

But that’s not all, you can check these and other statistics directly from your campaigns. 👀

waalaxy stats

And for the more inquisitive among you, you can access the “Staff” section, where you can get an overview of :

  • Prospect by tier.
  • Information on each prospect.
  • Import, stage, status and tag filters.

The images speak for themselves, you don’t need to be an expert to analyze your campaigns and that’s what we like about Waalaxy, its ease of use. ✨

4) Integration and compatibility with other tools

In terms of integration and accounting, what do these two tools have to offer? That’s what we’re going to find out right now. ⬇️

What Humanlinker offers

humanlinker integration

As you can see, Humanlinker has 4 integrations:

  • 🔹Messaging: Outlook | Gmail.
  • 🔹CRM: Hubspot | Salesforce.

We don’t have any more information on this as we’re in a trial version. 👀

What Waalaxy offers

On this tool, you can synchronize with the following tools. ⬇️

waalaxy integration

Oh, and since your campaigns, others have been added:

  • Airtable.
  • Sendiblue.
  • Sellsy.
  • Axonaut.
  • Google Sheets.
💡

Synchronization is intuitive, and we’ll guide you through your setup with a dedicated article.

There, I think you have a wide range of choices. 😇

5) Ease of use and user interface

Let’s move on to an analysis of the interface and the ease of use of the tools. 👇🏼

What Humanlinker offers

The graphics are fairly neutral, with a mix of gray, blue and a few primary colors. 😇

humanlinker dashboard

The home page is fairly well organized, so you quickly understand where you want to go and what to analyze. 👀

However, I think it’s a shame that we can’t filter which campaign to analyze, as we just get an average of our campaigns.

Apart from that, the tool is easy to use. 🤚

What Waalaxy has to offer

It’s impossible to lie here: from the outset, you’re charmed by a clean, intuitive and easy-to-use interface.
The graphic charter is respected throughout, with two strong colors, blue and purple. 🦋

It’s easy to see that Waalaxy takes visual consistency very seriously. The famous alien, one of Waalaxy’s mascots, can be seen everywhere. 👽

waalaxy pop up

As you can see, the big plus of this tool is its simplicity. In just a few clicks, you can create and send your campaign, without having watched 15 tutorials beforehand. ✨

6) Resource support for users

It’s all well and good to be able to send out campaigns, but what resources do users have available to help them in times of need? 🤔

That’s what we’re going to find out! ⬇️

What Humanlinker offers

Humanlinker has a support and help center with articles that I think will help you with your campaigns. 😇

The tool is available in French and English. 👀

Here’s what he proposes:

  • 🔷 Youtube channel.
  • 🔷 Blog with many articles.
  • 🔷 Newsletter.
  • 🔷 Webinairs.
  • 🔷 Podcasts.
humanlinker podcast

What Waalaxy offers

Directly from the tool, you have access to two sections:

  • 🔔 What’s new ⭢ all the tool’s new features.
  • FAQ ⭢ detailed articles on each campaign and feature.
waalaxy blog

If you can’t find what you’re looking for in the blog (I have my doubts but you never know), Waalaxy has a Facebook group, with over 4,100 members where they share the latest techniques and tools related to lead generation, growth hacking and ai sales! 🤯

And to finish on a high note, they also offer:

  • Youtube channel.
  • Daily newsletter.
  • Webinars.
  • E-book on successful prospecting.

Oh and, I absolutely had to tell you about the public roadmap! 💟

roadmap waalaxy

Inside, you have the latest features released, those in development, and you can even vote for your favorite feature! 🤩

7) User testimonials and market feedback

We couldn’t finish this article without hearing from our users! So, without further ado, let’s get to it 😉

What Humanlinker offers

To date, I haven’t found many reviews of the tool. Neither on Capterra nor on Trustpilot. So I went on an expedition to try and find some reviews for you. ⭐️

Overall, the tool is practical and easy to use, and the DISC personality is very useful for 100% personalization of messages and responses.

💡

This is a handy tool for sales, especially if you’re a large sales team. 👀

However, I have identified some areas for improvement: 👇🏼

  • Some bugs are still present (especially in the messaging system, where I sometimes couldn’t send my message).
  • The ability to customize your dashboard to get a quick view of a typical campaign.
  • As a freemium product, we don’t have any previews of paid features.

What Waalaxy offers

I’m not telling you anything new, overall, the strong point of this tool is its ease of use and intuitive platform. 👀

The tool is available in 11 languages, which means it can reach more countries, unlike Humanlinker, which only has English and French. 🌍

What we love is that when you arrive on the app, you feel a real identity of your own to the tool, they’ve created their own universe, and you feel transported into their galaxy. 🌌

However, I’ve noticed that some customers think it’s a shame not to have a mobile app (few prospecting tools do for practical reasons), and also that the plugin is only available on Chrome.

How about a recap?

You wanted our full review of Humanlinker, we’ve got it. ✔️

Overall, this is a powerful tool for B2B prospecting, with intelligent prospect scoring.

However, it lacks certain multi-channel functionalities and more extensive campaign personalization options.

What could be better than a comparison table to quickly see if this tool could be right for you or not? 😇

Frequently asked questions

Wait, don’t go so fast! We still have a few more questions to answer. 😇

How does Humanlinker work?

Humanlinker uses artificial intelligence and data management technologies. Among other things, you can find an intelligent scoring algorithm, which analyzes prospect data with the aim 🥅 of prioritizing the most promising leads for your strategy.

But that’s not all, it uses automation to facilitate the management of prospecting campaigns, automating tasks such as:

  • 1️⃣ Follow-ups.
  • 2️⃣ Follow-up.
  • 3️⃣ Message customization.

What is the Humanlinker logo?

If you’re curious about the Humanlinker logo, here it is! Oh, and, as a little gift, you can download it by right-clicking on it and “Save image”. 🎁
