Editorial Face-off
The Case for PhantomBuster
“PhantomBuster is the go-to tool for no-code social media automation and LinkedIn scraping. It's incredibly versatile with 100+ Phantoms, but users should be aware of platform TOS risks and the learning curve for complex workflows.”
The Case for Waalaxy
“Waalaxy is the go-to LinkedIn automation tool for simplicity and value. Its free tier, pre-made templates, and AI writer make it perfect for individuals and small teams. The Business plan adds email for true multi-channel outbound. Best for those who want LinkedIn as their primary acquisition channel.”
