Operelio or Dedupely: which to choose
Choose Operelio if
- New lists need deduping before they reach the CRM, not merging afterward.
- Beyond duplicates, you need to filter by seniority or industry, apply Data Health Check fixes and check emails before the push.
- New files keep coming, and a trail should dedupe, verify and push each on arrival or on a schedule (Starter and up).
Choose Dedupely if
- Your CRM already holds duplicates that need merging.
- You want duplicates merged automatically, on any plan.
- You use Close, Nimble or Google Contacts, which Operelio does not push to.

How Operelio and Dedupely differ
Cleaning the CRM, or cleaning the file
Dedupely merges duplicates that are already in your CRM. Operelio works at the door: it removes duplicates from each new file before import, so the list that reaches the CRM holds each person once.
Checking the file against the CRM
On Starter and up, Operelio checks each row against your records: people by email address (rows without one aren't sent), companies by website or name. Matches become updates, not new records, and name-and-company lookalikes are flagged for review. By default a push fills only blank fields, so edits made in the CRM stay.
Automated dedupe on every new file
On Starter and up, a trail dedupes every new file with the same settings, then runs your filters, Do Not Contact screening, email checks and CRM formatting before the push.
Files come in by upload, by email to the folder's own address or through the API (Pro and up), and the trail runs on arrival or on a schedule. A trail holds each push for approval unless it is set to let clean runs push on their own.
Filters and email checks beyond dedupe
Beyond dedupe, Operelio filters lists to the people you sell to, by job function, seniority, industry or company size. It checks emails too: the free email quality check on every plan, or email verification (credits, Starter and up). Dedupely focuses on finding and merging duplicates.
