DealGate vs Breakcold
DealGate vs Breakcold: prospecting vs social CRM
Breakcold is a sales CRM for tracking leads and LinkedIn, email, and social conversations. Agencies often pair it with a sender such as HeyReach. DealGate is not a CRM: it is a Chrome extension that builds a list from a search, scores it, and visits profiles in your browser toward a booked call.
Side by side
Where it runs
Breakcold
A web CRM with an inbox and lead records, not a browser session that performs LinkedIn actions.
In the product
DealGate. Your Chrome, on the LinkedIn session already open. There is no cloud runner holding the login.
How a list starts
Breakcold
Leads in the CRM, including people synced from a sender such as HeyReach.
In the product
DealGate. Paste a LinkedIn people search or a Sales Navigator URL. DealGate keeps a named lead list.
Who gets worked
Breakcold
Pipeline and tasks. ICP scoring on import is not described on the pages we used.
In the product
DealGate. Each person is scored against your ICP. First-degree connections and people you already have a thread with are left out.
The note
Breakcold
Conversation history on the lead. Their CRM pages lead with the record, not a first-touch note from a search.
Coming soon
DealGate. Coming soon.
Connection requests
Breakcold

Coming soon
DealGate. Coming soon.
Follow-up sequence
Breakcold

Coming soon
DealGate. Coming soon.
Automatic profile visits
Breakcold
Automatic profile visits are not described on the pages we used.
In the product
DealGate. DealGate visits the profile in your Chrome, on your session, and counts it against the daily cap.
When LinkedIn warns you
Breakcold
A LinkedIn warning hold is not described on Breakcold's pages the way DealGate's 48-hour stop works.
In the product
DealGate. LinkedIn decides restrictions on your account. When DealGate sees a checkpoint, captcha, or restriction banner, it stops activity for 48 hours. That hold cannot be cleared early. You can also stop the next action yourself; stopping does not shorten the hold.
After they reply
Breakcold
A unified inbox, workspaces, and the lead record so a reply can be qualified and moved.
In the product
DealGate. The aim is a booked call. People who are warming up are the ones to book.

Questions
Does DealGate replace Breakcold?
No. Breakcold is a CRM and inbox. DealGate does not store a pipeline or a multi-channel inbox. The comparison helps when you are choosing where a reply gets worked versus where the list gets built.
Can DealGate sit next to Breakcold the way HeyReach does?
No integration is shipped. HeyReach's site documents a Breakcold connection. DealGate does not.
What does DealGate do on a LinkedIn restriction?
LinkedIn decides restrictions on your account. When DealGate sees a checkpoint, captcha, or restriction banner, it stops activity for 48 hours. That hold cannot be cleared early.
