Pricing Comparison

ZoomInfo Pricing

Starting ~US$15,000/year (~A$23,000/year). Annual contracts only. Pricing opaque — requires sales call. Most AU recruitment agencies are priced out.

Kolvera Pricing (AUD)

Starter A$49/mo (1 seat, 400 credits) · Growth A$79/mo (2 seats, 800 credits) · Pro A$119/mo (3 seats, 1,500 credits, BYOK, e-sign) · Agency A$299/mo (5 seats, 5,000 credits). All prices annual billing. Monthly billing available at ~20% premium. Dialler add-on A$10/mo.

ZoomInfo is the market leader in global B2B data, but its A$23,000+/year price tag and US-centric focus make it a poor fit for Australian recruitment agencies. Kolvera delivers AU-specific company and contact data with recruitment workflow tools from A$49/mo.

The ZoomInfo Problem for AU Agencies

ZoomInfo was built for US enterprise sales operations. The minimum contract sits around US$15,000/year — before you add intent data, enrichment credits, or any of the premium modules. For a 3-person recruitment agency in Melbourne, that's budget for an entire year of operations, not one data tool.

Australian Data Quality

ZoomInfo's 300M+ profile database is genuinely impressive, but the Australian slice is thinner. ASIC company registers, ABR business data, and SEEK job postings — the data sources that matter most for AU recruitment BD — aren't in ZoomInfo's pipeline. You're paying enterprise prices for a US-optimised dataset.

The Right Tool for the Job

Kolvera isn't trying to be ZoomInfo. It's a focused recruitment BD platform with AU-first data, built-in outreach tools, and pricing that makes sense for agencies from 1 to 50 people. If you need global enterprise intent data, ZoomInfo wins. If you need to find AU hiring companies, enrich contacts, and fill your pipeline — Kolvera is built for exactly that.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ZoomInfo worth it for a small AU agency?

For most AU recruitment agencies under 20 people, ZoomInfo's pricing (A$23,000+/year) doesn't justify the ROI. The Australian data quality doesn't match the US coverage, and you'll still need separate tools for campaigns, dialler, and e-sign.

Does Kolvera have as much data as ZoomInfo?

No. ZoomInfo has the world's largest B2B database. But for Australian recruitment BD specifically, Kolvera's ASIC + ABR + SEEK + directory data is more relevant. Quality over quantity for the AU market.

Can I try Kolvera before committing?

Yes. 14-day free trial with 25 credits, no card required. ZoomInfo requires a sales call just to see pricing.
