Is it even worth trying Meetalfred or other low-budget automation tools?

I work as a consultant to help sales teams build better sequences. I just started working with a client who uses Meetalfred, but is open to making a change.

Seems like Meetalfred is mostly for LinkedIn. Has anyone had a positive experience using it as a multi-channel sequencing tool?

Or should I just tell them to pony up for Outreach, SalesLoft, or HubsSpot Sales Hub?
