• Seat-based Standard and Pro plans, each including 5 seats, on a per-contact credit system

• No published self-serve pricing or numeric plan cost; the pricing page offers only a personalized quote
• No free trial is offered, only a free data sample, unlike some competitors' time-limited trials
• Standard and Pro plans both include only 5 seats by default, with additional seats presumably requiring a custom quote

• One-click CRM export/sync and a Chrome extension for in-context prospecting

• This entry's dedicated pricing page (zoominfo.com/pricing) returned an automated bot-verification challenge that could not be accessed, so no numeric self-serve price could be confirmed firsthand; other pages consistently route to "Contact Sales" or a free-trial signup form instead
• Multiple similarly-named ZoomInfo products (Sales, Marketing, Talent, Operations) can make it unclear which specific capabilities are bundled into the Sales product without a sales conversation
• "Free trial" is offered as a lead-gen signup rather than a persistent free plan
