- Team Ultimate: $207/user/month – Annual billing only – Minimum 2 seats
Team plans include additional features like centralized seat management, SSO (Ultimate), and higher export quotas.
Enterprise/Custom Plans
For large enterprises requiring high volumes or specific features, RocketReach offers custom Enterprise plans. According to multiple sources (SalesIntel, Reachfast), Enterprise pricing starts around $6,000/year and varies based on contact volume, custom integrations, and support level.
How RocketReach Pricing Works
The Lookup and Export System
RocketReach uses a two-tier system that can be confusing:
1. Lookups (search/unlock):
- 1 lookup = unlock 1 verified email OR 1 phone number
- Annual plans = “unlimited” but capped at 10,000/month maximum
- Monthly plans = fixed quotas (170 to 500 lookups/month depending on plan)
- If no contact found or invalid contact = lookup generally refunded
2. Exports (download/sync):
- 1 export = download or send 1 contact to a CRM
- Strict limits per plan (1,200 to 20,000/year)
- Exports are consumed even if lookup failed
Real example: You search for a CEO’s email → 1 lookup consumed. You download this contact as CSV → 1 export consumed. Total: 1 lookup + 1 export.
Credit Expiration Policy
Unlike some competitors offering rollover (carrying over unused credits), RocketReach resets your quotas every month or year depending on your subscription type. If you only use 2,000 lookups out of your 10,000 monthly allowance, the remaining 8,000 are lost.
This limitation can represent significant waste for teams with variable needs. Derrick offers unlimited rollover on all paid plans, allowing credits to accumulate month over month without loss.
Monthly vs Annual Pricing Gap
RocketReach applies aggressive pricing strategy to push toward annual commitment:
- Essentials: $69/month vs $33/month annual = +109% on monthly
- Pro: $119/month vs $75/month annual = +59% on monthly
- Ultimate: $209/month vs $175/month annual = +19% on monthly
This price difference forces users to commit for 12 months to get reasonable pricing, eliminating flexibility to test the tool for a few months. In comparison, Derrick offers the same pricing monthly and annually, with ability to change plans anytime.
Hidden Costs
Several users report on Reddit and G2 unexpected costs:
Overages:
- If you exceed your 10,000 lookups/month: billing between $0.30 and $0.45 per additional lookup
- Calculated at month-end, can surprise on invoice
Variable data quality:
- Multiple reviewers mention 30-40% of contacts are incorrect or outdated
- Lookups consumed even if retrieved information is unusable
- Some profiles show email/phone available but return empty after unlock (lookup lost)
Limited exports:
- Pro plan limits to 6,000 exports/year = 500/month
- For an active team, this limit can be reached quickly
- Forced to upgrade to Ultimate plan (2x more expensive) for 20K exports/year

Real Workflow Calculation (100 contacts/month)
Scenario: Enrich 100 prospects with email + LinkedIn enrichment
RocketReach Pro ($75/month annual):
- 100 email lookups: included in unlimited
- 100 exports: 100/6,000 annual consumed
- Effective cost: $75 per month
Derrick SMALL (€9/month):
- 100 emails: 100 × 5 credits = 500 credits
- 100 LinkedIn enrichments: 100 × 1 credit = 100 credits
- Total: 600 credits out of 4,000 available
- Effective cost: €9 per month
- Remaining credits: 3,400 that roll over to next month
Savings: €62/month or €744/year | Derrick 7.9x cheaper
Use Case: Intensive Prospecting (5,000 contacts/month)
Scenario: Find 5,000 emails + monthly LinkedIn enrichment
RocketReach Pro ($75/month annual):
- 5,000 email lookups: included
- 5,000 exports: 60,000/year needed → Impossible with Pro (6,000/year)
- Solution: Upgrade to Ultimate at $175/month = 20,000 exports/year → Still insufficient
- Real cost: Requires Enterprise plan (estimated $500-1,000/month minimum)
Derrick MEDIUM (€47.50/month):
- 5,000 emails: 5,000 × 5 credits = 25,000 credits
- 5,000 LinkedIn enrichments: 5,000 × 1 credit = 5,000 credits
- Total: 30,000 credits → Need LARGE plan (100K credits/€175) OR rollover 3 months of MEDIUM
- Effective cost with rollover: €47.50/month for 3 months = €142.50 total to process 5,000 contacts/month for 3 months
- Or: LARGE for €175/month = immediate processing of 3+ months volume
Estimated savings: Minimum €325/month ($500 RocketReach Enterprise vs €175 Derrick LARGE)
RocketReach Pain Points Absent in Derrick
- No Sales Navigator required: RocketReach requires LinkedIn Sales Navigator ($1,200/year additional) for certain advanced scraping features. Derrick works autonomously.

- Pricing transparency: RocketReach forces annual commitment for reasonable prices. Derrick offers monthly contracts without commitment and transparent pricing.

FAQ – RocketReach Pricing Questions
How much does RocketReach cost for a small team?
For a team of 2-5 people, expect between $166/month (Team Pro) and $1,035/month (Team Ultimate) depending on number of seats. Team plans are billed annually only.
For example, a team of 3 sales reps on Team Pro would cost: $83 × 3 users = $249/month billed annually ($2,988/year).
In comparison, Derrick offers a shared credit model: a team of 3 people can use the SMALL+ plan (€20/month) or MEDIUM plan (€47.50/month) with a common credit pool, 5x to 10x cheaper than RocketReach Team.
Does RocketReach have a free plan?
Yes, RocketReach offers 5 free lookups upon signup, no credit card required. This allows testing the interface and data quality before subscribing to a paid plan.
However, 5 lookups are quickly exhausted to truly evaluate the tool. In comparison, Derrick offers a FREE plan with 200 credits/month (40 LinkedIn enrichments or 200 email verifications), allowing continuous personal use without paying.
Do RocketReach credits expire?
Yes, RocketReach lookups and exports reset every month (monthly plans) or every year (annual plans). There is no rollover: if you only use 2,000 of your 10,000 monthly lookups, the remaining 8,000 are lost.
This is a major difference with Derrick which offers unlimited rollover on all paid plans: your credits accumulate month over month, ideal for fluctuating needs (activity peaks some months, quiet others).
Can I change RocketReach plans mid-year?
Theoretically yes, but with important limitations:
- Upgrade: Possible anytime, prorated billing on remaining period
- Downgrade: Possible but you immediately lose access to higher-tier features
- Cancellation: Some G2 users report difficulties canceling, with post-cancellation charges
With annual commitment required to get competitive prices, you’re locked into a plan for 12 months in most cases. Derrick offers 100% monthly contracts without commitment, with ability to change plans or cancel anytime.
What is the real cost of RocketReach for 10,000 contacts/month?
For 10,000 email lookups per month with RocketReach:
RocketReach Pro ($75/month annual):
- Lookups: Included in “unlimited” (10K/month cap respected)
- Exports: 10,000 contacts × 12 months = 120,000 exports/year needed
- Pro plan = 6,000 exports/year → Largely insufficient
- Ultimate plan = 20,000 exports/year → Still insufficient
- Solution: Custom Enterprise plan (estimated $800-1,500/month minimum)
Derrick:
- 10,000 emails = 10,000 × 5 credits = 50,000 credits/month
- LARGE plan (100K credits/€175) covers 2 months of volume
- OR MEDIUM plan (25K/€47.50) with rollover over 2-3 months
- Effective cost: €87.50/month average (LARGE/2) OR €47.50/month (MEDIUM with planning)
Savings: Minimum €800/month ($1,200 RocketReach Enterprise vs €175 Derrick LARGE)
Is RocketReach reliable for finding phone numbers?
RocketReach phone number reliability is average according to user feedback:
- G2 reviewers mention 30-40% of contacts are outdated or incorrect
- Direct numbers are harder to obtain than general switchboards
- Coverage is better in the United States than Europe/Asia
If phone finding is critical for your business, consider that RocketReach consumes 1 lookup per phone (unit cost around $0.0075 in Pro), while Derrick consumes 150 credits (cost €0.3375 in SMALL, €0.30 in SMALL+). Derrick phone data quality combines multiple sources (including RocketReach) to maximize success rate.
What’s the difference between unlimited lookups and limited exports?
This is a frequent source of confusion among RocketReach users:
- Unlimited lookup = You can search and unlock as many emails/phones as you want (up to 10K/month)
- Limited export = You can only download or send to CRM a fixed number of contacts per year
Real example: You do 10,000 email lookups in January on Pro plan. You want to export them to your CRM → ❌ Impossible, you only have 6,000 exports for the entire year, meaning 500/month.
Result: you must manually select which contacts to export, or pay for upgrade to Ultimate (2x more expensive).
Derrick doesn’t have this limitation: once a contact is enriched in your Google Sheet, it’s immediately available for export to any tool via CSV, API, or native integrations.
