Surfe alternatives 2026

5 other ways to get LinkedIn contacts into your CRM, and who each one suits.

How we review: this is a research-based roundup by a working UK B2B SaaS AE, using vendor sites and pricing pages, public user reviews and online discussion. It is not a hands-on test. Every tool listed was checked as live and operating in October 2026. Last checked October 2026.

Quick answer: Surfe is still our pick for one-click LinkedIn-to-CRM sync (read our Surfe review). If you need bulk enrichment, EU phone numbers or a native Salesforce route, one of these may suit you better.
