Lensmor vs Vendelux: Pricing, Lead Data & Outreach (2026)

Choose Lensmor if your team needs event-specific research and already handles enrichment and outreach. Evaluate Vendelux if you need campaign execution support or native Salesforce integration. The right choice depends on the gap in your sales process, not just the size of the database.

For a quick purchase decision:

• Research with your existing stack: Lensmor lets you unlock a show's available data, review source evidence, and export a shortlist. Your team handles contact enrichment and outreach.
• Public subscription budget: Lensmor Basic starts at $499/month or $4,990/year for up to five seats. Event access uses credits; email and phone reveals use additional credits. External tools have their own costs.
• Vendor-supported campaigns: Vendelux publishes plan allowances but no dollar prices. Its higher plans list managed outreach. Request a quote covering the seats, profile access, CRM actions, and services you need.
• Attendance evidence: Neither an employee profile nor an exhibitor association should become a confirmed-attendance claim without person-level evidence. Test coverage for your actual event before purchasing.

This Lensmor vs Vendelux comparison explains those differences, shows a checked research-and-export workflow, and helps you cost the next step.

Written by the Lensmor team. Public product and pricing information checked October 13, 2026. The UNBOUND workflow below was tested in Lensmor on the same date, including a two-record CSV download. We did not test Vendelux's authenticated dataset or run external enrichment.

Lensmor vs Vendelux at a glance

These are workflow differences, not a claim that one platform has better data for every event. Test both against the shows and accounts you actually target.

Lensmor vs Vendelux pricing: public plans and quoted contracts

Lensmor's pricing is public. Basic costs $499 per month or $4,990 per year, includes 35,000 credits per month, and supports up to five seats. Growth costs $14,900 per year, with a 1.5-million-credit annual pool and up to ten seats. Enterprise pricing is custom.

Three months of monthly Basic cost $1,497. Annual Basic saves $998 compared with twelve monthly payments. Its credits still reset monthly; Growth's pool resets at annual renewal. Neither plan's unused credits roll over into the next period.

Vendelux's official pricing page publishes plan allowances but no dollar prices. Starter currently lists 2,000 monthly lead credits, four annual campaign credits, and two seats; Plus lists 5,000 monthly lead credits, ten annual campaign credits, and five seats. Enterprise allowances are custom. Ask sales for the current price of the package you need.

What third-party Vendelux pricing figures tell you

Vendr currently displays a $30,000 median annual cost, with a shown range of $19,999–$121,000. Capterra lists a $1,667 monthly starting figure, equivalent to $20,004 over twelve months. These are third-party records, not official prices for today's named plans.

Some customers moving to Lensmor have also reported Vendelux quotes around $40,000 a year, while others described older agreements around $20,000. Those are customer-reported examples. We have not independently verified their dates, seat counts, packages, or included services, so we do not present them as a universal new-customer or renewal price.

For a fair comparison, request the same scope: seats, target events, usable lead access, contact details, CRM handoff, and outreach support. Do not attach Capterra's starting figure to Vendelux Plus or assume a historical contract represents the current entry plan.

Lensmor lets you research an event before spending on contacts

Imagine preparing for a trade show. You want to browse companies, find the ones that fit your market, and review relevant people before choosing whom to contact.

In Lensmor, Base Event Access costs 2,000 credits and opens the available Exhibitor and Social Signal Attendee records. You can browse and filter within that unlocked data without a separate charge to access each associated profile. Full Access costs 5,000 credits and adds available Visitor data; upgrading from base costs another 3,000.

That means access to the records available for this event, not a guarantee that every attendee is covered. Availability and source evidence differ by show.

Vendelux's pricing FAQ describes lead credits as the way to unlock attendee profiles, including contact, company, and engagement information. That differs from an event-level unlock. Unlimited event insights should not be read as unlimited profile access.

Emails and phone numbers are a separate decision

Unlocking a Lensmor event does not automatically reveal hidden contact details. A returned email costs 15 credits and a returned phone number costs 150; unsuccessful searches are refunded. You can instead export your shortlist and use an enrichment provider you already pay for.

These are worked examples, not customer outcomes. Your cost depends on what you unlock, which contact details you request, and any other credit-consuming actions.

Already paying for enrichment? Keep using it

If your team already owns contact-enrichment capacity, Lensmor can supply the event context while the existing provider handles missing emails or phone numbers.

1. Find the event and check its edition. Review the available data before choosing base or full access.
2. Build a shortlist. Filter for relevant accounts and roles, then inspect the sources linking records to the show.
3. Deduplicate against your CRM. Keep the contact details and account ownership you already have.
4. Export a small sample. Confirm that company names, domains, people, and profile links match your provider's input requirements.
5. Enrich only what is missing. Return those results to your normal CRM and outreach process.

You do not need to buy Lensmor contact reveals before exporting. Hidden emails and phones stay hidden in the file; another provider searches using the available identity fields. Do not assume that a successful export means enrichment or delivery will succeed—test those steps separately.

This setup can reduce duplicated purchasing when you already have usable enrichment credits. It does not make external enrichment free, and it does not establish that the person will attend.

Which workflow fits your team?

A five-person team already using Apollo and HubSpot

Start by checking what those subscriptions already cover. Apollo can handle contact research and enrichment within your plan; HubSpot remains your CRM. If the missing input is a sourced list of companies and people connected to your chosen event, evaluate Lensmor for that research step. Basic supports up to five seats, but match coverage and export fields before buying.

You can export available identity fields without first buying Lensmor contact reveals. Keep hidden fields, missing LinkedIn URLs, and uncertain attendance visible in the handoff. Lensmor supports native HubSpot integration; an Apollo handoff may use a file or a workflow you configure. The CSV test below establishes the export step, not an end-to-end Apollo or CRM integration test.

A team researching only three trade shows

Count the workload and the periods in which you need access. Three base event unlocks use 6,000 Lensmor credits. If you also request and receive 50 emails per show, those 150 emails use 2,250 credits: 8,250 credits in total, excluding phones, Visitor upgrades, and other actions. That fits within Basic's published 35,000-credit monthly allowance if all of that work happens in one billing period.

If the work spans three monthly subscription periods, Basic's subscription cost is $1,497; credits reset each month. That is a budget example, not a promise about event coverage or how many contacts can be found. Check each show before choosing your access level. For Vendelux, request the same three-show scope and identify how many profile and campaign credits it requires; third-party annual prices do not provide that quote.

A team that needs someone to run pre-show outreach

Evaluate Vendelux's campaign service if the gap is execution capacity. Ask who prepares the list, writes messages, handles replies, books meetings, and updates your CRM, and get the included scope in writing. Compare that quote with the research tools and staffing you would otherwise need.

Lensmor supports research and handoff. It does not provide a managed team to run those campaigns. A lower software price alone will not solve a shortage of people to execute outreach.

A real example: filtering and exporting a UNBOUND shortlist

On October 13, 2026, we tested this workflow in Lensmor's UNBOUND 2026 event page. The page displayed 118 exhibitor companies and 8,819 recorded people, with an October 7 data-update label. Those are database records, not an independently verified attendance total or a completeness claim.

We used Captello, which is listed on the organizer's 2026 sponsor page, as the company sample. In the people tab, applying Company Name → Captello returned six profiles. For a role-focused demonstration, we selected a strategic-growth director and a sales director rather than exporting all six.

The export dialog showed two selected contacts and offered CSV or Excel. We downloaded CSV, opened the file, and checked the result:

The result is a usable research handoff, not two verified attendees or two deliverable email addresses. The CSV's “Official Exhibitor” source label connects the records to the exhibitor category; it does not establish that either person registered. A historical-event count is not evidence of attendance at this edition.

We did not buy new contact reveals, send outreach, or test another enrichment provider. The sample was selected to demonstrate the workflow, not to estimate overall data accuracy, enrichment success, time savings, or ROI. Counts and available fields can change; rerun the same company filter before using the list.

Compare evidence, not just database size

An event list is useful when you can explain why an account or person belongs on it. Different sources support different conclusions:

• Official exhibitor sources can establish a company's participation in an event edition. They do not establish which employees will travel.
• Public social signals can connect a person to an event. Read the evidence: a relevant post is not always a statement of attendance.
• Visitor data, where available, should be evaluated by its source, event edition, and recency. It is a different category from an employee profile associated with an exhibitor.

Keep those distinctions in the CRM handoff and in your messages. “Your company is listed as an exhibitor” and “I saw your post about the event” are different claims. Neither should silently become “You are registered to attend.”

When evaluating either vendor, choose several known accounts and review the underlying records. Compare relevant matches, source quality, missing fields, and the effort required to create a usable list. Raw database totals alone do not answer those questions.

API access and CRM handoff

Lensmor API access is available to paid subscribers, not only Enterprise customers. Subscribers can create a key in Settings → API Keys. The API documentation covers event, exhibitor, and people data, enrichment, credit usage, and asynchronous jobs.

An API key lets you build a custom workflow; it is not the same as a ready-made native integration. Test the fields, limits, credit costs, and job handling your automation requires. Avoid assuming that the key itself runs or sends a campaign.

Lensmor's native CRM integration is HubSpot. Other CRM handoffs need an export or a configured workflow. Vendelux advertises Salesforce and HubSpot integrations; confirm the applicable plan and the actions included. Its public pricing page distinguishes Starter's view-only CRM access from higher-plan functionality.

If native Salesforce support is essential to your team, account for that difference. If you are comparing custom API workflows, ask Vendelux to confirm access and limits in writing rather than assuming its terms match Lensmor's.

When Vendelux may be the better fit

If your team needs help executing outreach, evaluate Vendelux Meetings as a service component. Its published offer includes outreach, reply handling, and scheduling; higher plans list managed outreach. A campaign credit represents a campaign for an event and target list, not a guaranteed number of meetings.

That service can matter to a small team with limited outbound capacity. Compare its scope with your actual staffing gap, including who writes messages, handles replies, qualifies interest, and follows up after the meeting.

For a team with an established SDR process, request a quote that separates the software and campaign support you will actually use. Lensmor can support research and handoff, but it does not replace those people with a managed-outreach service.

Keep onsite capture separate from pre-show intelligence

Vendelux offers a free lead scanner for badges and business cards. Do not treat that free capture product as the price of its paid intelligence platform, or use the intelligence quote to judge the scanner.

This comparison covers Lensmor's published event-research, enrichment, and export workflow. If scanning is part of your requirements, evaluate an available capture product separately and test how its records enter your CRM.

Choose based on your team's next event

Start with Lensmor if you want event-specific research, public pricing, and control over enrichment and outreach. Evaluate Vendelux if its campaign services or native integrations address a gap your current stack cannot handle.

Use one real event to decide. Compare known target accounts, inspect the evidence behind people records, build a shortlist, and test the CRM handoff. Record useful contacts and total cost before measuring replies, meetings held, and qualified pipeline after outreach. A larger list is not the same as a better sales result.

Create a free Lensmor account to get 2,000 credits with no credit card required. That covers a base event unlock for the available Exhibitor and Social Signal Attendee data. Contact reveals and Visitor upgrades require additional credits.
