Question 1

How do you prospect on LinkedIn without getting your account banned?

Accepted Answer

The key is real browser automation, not API calls. SaaS tools like Apollo trigger LinkedIn detection because they hit APIs too fast. Linki uses actual browser behavior: human-speed clicks, natural pauses between actions, realistic day/night schedules. LinkedIn sees a real person, not a bot. We run on German servers with geographic diversity, so login IPs look natural. You also control connection request pacing: send 10 per day or 50 per week, your choice. The slower you go, the safer you are. Teams using Linki for 12+ months report zero account restrictions.

Question 2

Is LinkedIn Sales Navigator better than automated prospecting?

Accepted Answer

Sales Navigator is good if you want LinkedIn's built-in filters and limited automation. It costs €60/mo per seat and caps your outreach. You manually search for leads, then send connection requests one-by-one. Automated prospecting with Linki finds 100+ leads per day, sends personalized requests on schedule, and follows up without you clicking anything. Navigator is for discovery. Linki is for scale. Most B2B teams use Navigator to identify target companies, then use Linki to automate the rest. You'll spend 10 hours per week on Navigator. With Linki, you'll spend 2 hours reviewing results.

Question 3

How much does LinkedIn prospecting cost with Opsily?

Accepted Answer

Linki is included in every Opsily plan. Small plan is €20/mo (3 apps), Medium is €40/mo (5 apps), Large is €70/mo (10 apps), Unlimited is €100/mo (all apps). No per-user charges. One sales rep or 50 sales reps, same price. Compare that to Apollo.io at €99-150 per rep per month. For a 10-person sales team, Apollo costs €990-1,500/mo. Opsily costs €70-100/mo total. You also get 100+ other apps included: CRM, email, knowledge base, documentation, everything. That SaaS stack costs €3,000-5,000/mo separate.

Question 4

Does self-hosted LinkedIn prospecting actually work as well as SaaS?

Accepted Answer

Yes, better. Self-hosted Linki uses real browser automation, which is more reliable than APIs. API-based tools hit rate limits. You queue up 50 messages, they send 5 per hour, so it takes 10 hours to finish. Real browser automation sends at natural human speed continuously. Ban risk is lower because LinkedIn doesn't flag real browser behavior. Data is fresher because you're reading live from LinkedIn, not a cached database. Your prospect list updates in seconds. SaaS tools batch data every 24 hours. In prospecting, 24 hours is old. One advantage of SaaS: managed infrastructure. You don't maintain servers. Opsily handles all that, so you get both: SaaS convenience + self-hosted reliability.

Question 5

How long does it take to set up Linki?

Accepted Answer

Three minutes. Create an Opsily account, click Install Linki, connect your LinkedIn account (OAuth login, no passwords stored), set your target parameters (role, company size, location), and start. On day one, you're finding leads. On day two, connection requests are going out. By day three, you're following up. No engineers needed. No configuration files. The setup is as simple as installing an app on your phone.

Question 6

Is my prospect data safe with self-hosted tools?

Accepted Answer

Safer than SaaS. With SaaS, your data lives on vendor servers. If they get hacked, your database is at risk. If they go out of business, you lose access. With Opsily self-hosted, your data is on your own servers. You control physical access, backups, encryption. Opsily encrypts everything at rest and in transit. We back up your data daily. If you want to move to another tool, you export everything as CSV and go. No vendor lock-in. You also get GDPR compliance by default: German data centers, zero cross-border transfers. No US cloud for EU companies.

Question 7

Can I export my prospect lists and message history?

Accepted Answer

Yes, instantly. Linki stores all prospect data in a standard table. You can export to CSV anytime. Every connection, every message, every follow-up is in the export. Take that file and import it anywhere. You can switch tools tomorrow with zero data loss. SaaS platforms often lock you in: limited export, metadata stripped, missing history. With Opsily, your data is yours. We also give you API access, so you can automate exports to Google Sheets, Hubspot, or your data warehouse daily.

Question 8

How do I migrate from Apollo.io or Clay to Linki?

Accepted Answer

Three steps. First, export your prospect lists from Apollo (they let you) or Clay (they charge for data export). Second, upload the CSV to Linki. Linki imports names, titles, companies, and LinkedIn URLs. Third, start your automated workflow in Linki. You'll lose Apollo's history, but all your prospect data transfers. Most teams migrate over a weekend. For teams with 10,000+ contacts, we can bulk-import on the backend. Email our support team and we'll handle it.
