VersionDB vs Similarweb
Similarweb sells its technology data, formerly SimilarTech, as one filter inside Sales Intelligence, its sales platform, billed monthly in credits spent per data point returned.
Similarweb pricing checked 22 September 2026 against their pricing page. Prices change, so check before you compare.
$129 buys one month of Similarweb Sales Intelligence Individual, or 8,433 complete rows from VersionDB.
Similarweb Individual includes 1,000 data credits a month, and every data point returned costs one credit. At ten fields per company, the same $129 covers about 100 companies.
At VersionDB the same $129 is a one-off export of up to 8,433 sites. Each row carries everything we have on that site: its full tech stack with versions, and the emails, phone numbers and social profiles the company publishes on its own website. You keep the file and nothing renews.

What VersionDB does differently
You are buying a whole platform for one filter
Technology data is a single filter inside Sales Intelligence Lead Generator. Getting it means subscribing to a traffic and sales platform whether or not you use the rest.
Credits are data points, not rows
A list of 500 companies with ten fields each costs 5,000 credits, not 500, and Individual includes 1,000 a month. VersionDB charges per row, and one row is every field we have on that site.
Nothing renews
An export is a single payment. The file is yours whether you open it this week or next year.
You can see the whole price
Only one tier is published; everything above is quote-only. VersionDB shows the exact cost of your list on a page anyone can read.
Versions on the row
Target a specific release rather than every site running the technology.
Contacts in the same file
Emails, phones and social profiles classified business or personnel, no separate reveal step and no monthly contact cap. You can filter on them too, for example only companies with a personnel email, a free address like Gmail, a mobile number or a personnel LinkedIn profile.
Similarweb is the better choice sometimes
- You actually want Similarweb's traffic and audience data alongside technology data. That is a different dataset and we have nothing equivalent.
- You need firmographics and sales signals (traffic growth, buyer intent).
- You need the wider technology catalogue (they claim 5,500+).
- You want CRM export or API and are already buying Business/Enterprise.
- You are already a Similarweb customer and this folds into an existing contract.
- You want a technology list without subscribing to a traffic analytics platform.
- You want to know the price before creating an account or talking to sales.
- You want every field on every row rather than paying per data point.
- You need version-level targeting.
- You buy occasionally; a monthly subscription is poor value for that usage pattern.
