Vocus.io review
Low-cost Gmail tracking with follow-ups, campaigns, and CRM logging.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
For Gmail and G Suite users, Vocus.io combines email tracking with outreach automation and CRM logging. Sales teams can track opens per recipient, link clicks, and replies, then use scheduled sending, follow-up sequences, reminders, and reusable templates to manage outreach. Its focus is email workflows rather than a standalone CRM, so it suits teams that want activity captured in their existing sales systems. The Chrome extension is the listed platform, and Outlook is not supported.
Pricing is monthly per user: Basic costs $5 and includes email tracking and automated follow-ups; Starter costs $10 and adds templates and snippets; Professional costs $20 and adds campaigns with attachments. All three plans list tracking and follow-ups, while the higher tiers add tools for composing reusable messages and sending personalized campaigns. Vocus.io offers a 30-day trial, but not a free plan. The tier progression is straightforward for buyers who want to start with individual tracking and move toward campaign workflows, though teams needing Outlook support should look elsewhere.
CRM fit is a notable part of the product's scope. Vocus.io can log activity through auto-BCC and connects with Salesforce, Pipedrive, HubSpot, Insightly, SugarCRM, OnePage CRM, Zoho CRM, Highrise, Base, and Nutshell; webhooks and Zapier add automation options. Campaigns can include ordinary attachments, but attachment tracking is not supported. That distinction matters for teams evaluating message-level visibility: Vocus.io covers opens, clicks, and replies, not whether a recipient opened an attachment. Choose it for Gmail-centered sales outreach and CRM logging; consider an alternative if Outlook compatibility or attachment tracking is essential.
