Effixient is no longer active; effixient.io shows nothing but a parked domain. If you were looking for Effixient, you were looking for this: a candidate list from TalentManager, a sequence with follow-ups, stop on reply, in your own XING account. That is exactly what ZingBot does. The first 7 days are free.
The same workflow
Effixient’s archived pages described sequences with automatic follow-ups, reply detection and salutation with title and last name and the import from TalentManager searches and projects. Every one of those is in ZingBot. What Effixient did not have comes on top: at import you skip profiles you or your team already wrote to.
What you get
- The list comes from TalentManager. Paste the URL of the search or the project, done. Without a TalentManager licence you use the standard XING import.
- Write the message and follow-ups once. With salutation, title and last name as placeholders. ZingBot works the list inside your own XING account.
- Stop on reply. Whoever replies gets no further follow-up. In the end you only talk to the people who answered.
- No double contact within the team. At import you skip profiles you or anyone on your team has already contacted.
Moved in ten minutes
Create an account, connect your XING account, import the list, keep your message texts, set up the follow-ups, start. The first 7 days cost nothing; after that 135 € a month per seat, one seat is one XING account. How the import looks is on Automate XING TalentManager; what it pays back, in the ROI calculator.
XING limits
ZingBot works in your real XING account, so XING’s limits and security checks for that account apply, as when clicking by hand. What that means day to day is in Is XING automation safe?
Questions about switching from Effixient to ZingBot
Does Effixient still exist?
No. Effixient is no longer active; effixient.io shows nothing but a parked domain. Anyone who used Effixient for XING recruiting gets the same workflow with ZingBot.
What did Effixient do, and does ZingBot do it too?
Effixient offered message sequences with automatic follow-ups, reply detection, salutation with title and last name, and import from TalentManager searches and projects. ZingBot does exactly that, inside your own XING account, plus de-duplication against profiles your team already contacted.
How do I switch from Effixient to ZingBot?
Create an account, connect your XING account, import a TalentManager search or project, keep your message texts, set up the follow-ups, start. One afternoon, and the first list is running.
I also used Effixient for B2B sales. Does ZingBot fit?
ZingBot is cut for recruiting: candidate lists from TalentManager or the standard XING import. You can message sales lists through the standard import; search and a CRM are not part of ZingBot.
What does ZingBot cost?
ZingBot Pro is 135 € a month per seat, 405 € a quarter or 1,500 € a year; the first 7 days are free. One seat is one XING account.
Does ZingBot import from XING TalentManager?
Yes, from a search or a project in your own TalentManager. It needs a TalentManager licence in your XING account. Without one you use the standard XING import.
How do follow-ups work in ZingBot?
You write the first message and the follow-ups once, with salutation, title and last name as placeholders. ZingBot sends the sequence in your own XING account and ends it for every person who replies.
Does ZingBot prevent double contact within a team?
Yes. At import you skip profiles you or anyone on your team has already contacted, and profiles in running campaigns. You invite colleagues under Settings → Team.
Do XING's limits still apply with ZingBot?
Yes. ZingBot works in your own account, so XING's limits for contact requests and messages and XING's security checks apply. You answer a check yourself in XING; ZingBot does not get around it.
How much time does ZingBot save?
Up to 12 hours a week per employee when messaging and following up a list otherwise run by hand. That is a ceiling, not an average.
