Limited, Laggy, and Restrictive — Not Built for Sales Freedom

I really wanted to like AroundDeal, but after spending considerable time with it, I feel the LTD offer is quite misleading and borders on being a trap.

1. Limited Data Access – Even with filters like specific location, industry, and employee count (say 11–50), I can only retrieve a max of 1,000 leads. If I use the "exclude" feature smartly, I might get another 1,000, but once duplicates and unverified leads are removed, I’m left with maybe 500 usable leads. That’s very limiting for any real sales campaign.

2. Monthly Credit Illusion – I receive 17,000 credits monthly, but in reality, I can only download around 300 leads—that’s less than 2%! The rest just sit there. To actually access them, I would need to download one by one leads to an entire month. This feels like an intentional bottleneck.

3. Performance Issues – The platform is super laggy and frustratingly slow. I raised multiple concerns. While AppSumo was supportive with a refund option, I had already invested significant time in lead generation and decided to compromise.

Final Thoughts:

If you're looking for a platform to supercharge your sales, AroundDeal is not it. You’ll end up spending more time fighting the system's restrictions than focusing on selling. I strongly suggest looking into more flexible, sales-friendly alternatives that give you full control of your lead flow.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such detailed feedback with us. We truly appreciate your honesty, and I’d love to address your concerns one by one:

Data Access – I completely understand how frustrating it can feel when the number of usable leads seems limited. One tip that may help is trying broader or alternative filters (e.g., adjusting industry/employee size/location combinations). This often opens up significantly more results that can be refined for your campaigns.

Monthly Credits & Exports – You’re right that while the LTD plan provides a high monthly credit balance, we do limit continuous bulk exports. This is intentional, and the main reasons are:

To ensure all users enjoy consistent performance and access, without a few accounts overloading the system.

To maintain data security and reduce risks of data scraping or resale.
We hope you understand these security measures are in place to protect both our users and our data partners. That said, the LTD plan still offers lifetime access to our contact search features with a one-time payment, which is quite unique compared to most other providers.

Performance Issues – Thank you for highlighting this. We’ve already shared your feedback with our product team and are actively working on improving speed and responsiveness. Your experience matters, and we want every session to feel smooth and productive.

We’re committed to making AroundDeal better every day, and your input is very valuable in that process. If you’d like, I’d be happy to jump on a quick call to walk you through some strategies for maximizing your LTD plan benefits.

Thanks again for your trust and for giving AroundDeal a try — we’re here to support you.
