Switching from ZoomInfo to Lusha

Lusha has no ZoomInfo importer. Export what data you can from ZoomInfo and re-search priority accounts in Lusha; Lusha’s smaller database may not match ZoomInfo’s full coverage.

Quick verdict: Move to Lusha if you want a published, self-serve price instead of a sales-quoted contract, and can accept a smaller contact database and a monthly lookup cap in exchange.

    1Export your prospect listsDownload your saved lists, sequences and key contact records as CSV from the old tool.
    2Sign up for LushaStart on the free plan or Starter, and install the Chrome extension.
    3Reconnect your CRMRe-link Salesforce, HubSpot or your CRM of choice so contacts and activity sync automatically.
    4Re-import your priority accountsSearch for your highest-priority accounts in the new tool to rebuild verified contact data.
    5Reconnect sequences and outreach toolsRe-link any connected sales-engagement or CRM sync you relied on in the old tool.
    6Cancel the old planOnce your team is prospecting comfortably in the new tool, cancel the old subscription.

    What this path doesn’t do for you:

    ZoomInfo’s intent-data modules and database depth have no full Lusha equivalent — verify Lusha’s coverage of your target accounts before committing.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does ZoomInfo data import into Lusha?

    No. There is no automatic import between the two.

    Will I save money?

    Likely, if your ZoomInfo contract was enterprise-priced — Lusha’s published Starter tier is $37.45/seat/mo.

    Will Lusha have the same contacts I had in ZoomInfo?

    Not guaranteed — check coverage of your specific target accounts before fully switching, since Lusha’s database is smaller.

    Do my saved prospect lists transfer?

    No. Export your active lists and sequences as CSV before cancelling — each vendor’s contact database and saved searches are proprietary and don’t move between platforms.
