Is Kanbox the best alternative to Waalaxy?
Kanbox and Waalaxy, powerful tools for prospecting on LinkedIn.
Kanbox and Waalaxy are two prospecting and automation solutions designed to enhance sales and recruitment performance on LinkedIn. While Kanbox relies on simple and effective management of interactions and conversations during automation campaigns and beyond, Waalaxy tries to expand its scope by offering cold mailing. Let's explore these two solutions to assess their strengths and weaknesses.
Key Differences
Combining Automations and CRM feature
Waalaxy allows you to easily create automated campaigns over Linkedin. It’s quite convenient for that. But it acts like a black box : you launch your campaigns, and then you wait for answers in your Linkedin Inbox not really knowing what’s going on in between.
With Kanbox, it’s totally different. We’ve chosen to combine automations and Sales pipelines (Kanban boards) natively integrated with LinkedIn. All your outreach workflow is visual. And, at a glance, you get a crystal clear view of what’s going on. In one of the columns of your pipeline, you know who has answered your cold messages, you get a clear TODO list of your actions, really easy and convenient to follow up!
Additionally, the pipelines generated during an automation campaign allow member cards to move automatically from column to column until the end of the campaign, making the pipeline process automated.
An fully integrated Inbox
The inbox is completely tied to all the other functionalities. It’s not a separated add-on. And so, you can easily organize your conversations to identify your outreach messages and your personnel ones.
Also, the inbox cannot just manage your conversations. It helps you organize all of your network : your first degree connections and your contacts. You get all the tools to be able to organize your network, being able to separate your prospects from your customers, investors, coworkers and then share only the relevant information with specific groups or individuals as well as personalize your approach.
Elevating Linkedin scraping to unparalleled precision
In order to create a campaign, you need to prepare a list of leads. Much more than exporting users out of Linkedin, Kanbox scrapes like Waalaxy, but also:
- Lets you refine your lists a posteriori: once your list is scraped, you get advanced filters to refine it, clean unwanted users, split it…
- Fine-tuned filters for improved precision:
- Match / Not Match
- Duplicated / Not duplicated in other lists
- Added / Not added to an Inbox or Pipeline of my team
- Is a Connection / Is not a Connection
- Enriched Email Address: Is provided / Is not provided / Contains / Not contains
- Scraped Email Address: Is provided / Is not provided / Contains / Not contains
- Phone number: Is provided / Is not provided
- Is Open Profile / Is not Open Profile
- Is Open to Work / Is not Open to Work
- Is Premium / Is not Premium
- Language: Contains / Not contains
- Job title: Contains / Not contains
- Number of connection: More than / Less Than
- Skills: Contains / Not contains
- Years in Job: More than / Less Than
- Years in Company: More than / Less Than
- Headline: Contains / Not contains
- Location: Contains / Not contains
- Company name: Contains / Not contains
- Company employees count: More than / Less Than
- Company founded since: More than / Less Than
- Company industry: Contains / Not contains
- Then you can use part of your list in a Kanbox CRM Pipeline and outreach through linkedin

Conclusion
Why you should make the switch from Waalaxy to Kanbox?
Here are some more of the reasons clients have shared for why they’ve chosen Kanbox over Waalaxy:
A comprehensive and more affordable tool
Many customers previously relied on multiple tools for tasks such as scraping, email finding, automation, inbox management, and CRM, each requiring separate subscriptions. Kanbox integrates all these functionalities into one platform, offered at a single, more affordable subscription price compared to purchasing each tool separately. Additionally, Kanbox streamlines lead list management directly within the platform, eliminating the need for Excel file handling.
More convenient to prepare your lists of leads
No need to export, clean and import back your lists of leads. You can do everything from within Kanbox thanks to advanced filters and match analysis!
Sales pipelines to manage your workflows!
Your automations tool is not a black box anymore. With pipelines, you have a clear view of what’s going on, you can easily track campaigns progress. Also you get a clear view of manual actions you have to do, answers you have to provide…
