In this guide, I have compared Linklo vs. Terminus on features, pricing and ABM fit so your marketing and sales teams can quickly see which platform aligns with their ABM motion.
I have also discussed how ZenABM can work as a lean LinkedIn-first alternative or serve as a complementary layer due to its unique features.
In case you want a quick comparison:

A third option: ZenABM gives account-level LinkedIn ad engagement, pipeline dashboards, account scoring, ABM stages, CRM sync, first-party qualitative intent, automated BDR assignment, custom webhooks, an AI chatbot Zena that gives deep LinkedIn ABM analytics in natural language, and job title analytics starting at $59 per month.
Terminus is widely described as an end-to-end ABM platform.
It is popular with B2B marketers who want a unified ABM “Engagement Hub” that spans ads, web activity and sales touchpoints.
Here are the key pieces.

Terminus lets you plan and manage ads across multiple channels inside one platform.
This includes traditional display ads via an account-based DSP, retargeting, LinkedIn Ads and newer formats like connected TV and audio.
By centralizing media, Terminus helps you hit target accounts across web, social and other inventory from one place, while automatically balancing impressions so a few accounts do not eat all the budget.
For teams that need centralized multi-channel orchestration, Terminus can simplify how you run ABM campaigns.


You can upload or sync target account lists from your CRM and refine audiences by persona attributes such as department, seniority or function.
ZenABM also helps you track the personas/job titles of your LinkedIn ad viewers:


The platform tracks impressions as well as clicks at the account level.
In ABM, simply knowing that a target account repeatedly saw your ads is useful. Account Hub surfaces impressions, clicks, site visits and other engagement per account so you can see how your programs land and support account-based attribution.
ZenABM also gives company-level engagement data for each LinkedIn ad campaign and campaign group.

You get:
Terminus includes Visitor ID to de-anonymise website traffic.
It uses reverse IP lookup, cookies and CRM matching to figure out which companies (and sometimes which known contacts) are on your site.
If an anonymous visitor later fills a form, Terminus can connect that history back to the account. It also maps CRM leads to sessions by email domain, so you know, for example, when a director from Acme Corp visited the pricing page.

Terminus integrates intent data from providers such as Bombora to highlight in-market accounts so you can prioritize spend on companies that show strong research behavior.

Measurement Studio in Terminus (supported by the BrightFunnel acquisition) handles multi touch attribution at the account level.
It lets marketers see how ads, emails, website sessions, events and other touches influence pipeline and revenue using first touch, last touch and custom models.
All of this rolls into an account journey view so you can see how an opportunity moved from early engagement to closed won.
Terminus also provides ready-made ABM dashboards that show revenue, opportunities, pipeline influence, top engaged accounts and similar metrics, plus topic-based views for discovering new opportunities.


Terminus plugs into a wide range of B2B tools.
There are built-in connectors for major CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics), marketing automation platforms (Marketo, Pardot, HubSpot Marketing Hub, Eloqua), ad channels (LinkedIn Ads, Google Ads), sales tools (Outreach, Salesloft and others), analytics (Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, PathFactory), data providers (Bombora, G2 intent, Clearbit or DemandScience) and more.
You can dig through the full list in the Terminus docs.
ZenABM provides built-in integrations with CRMs like HubSpot and Salesforce.


Terminus pricing is premium and custom-quoted.
There is no public price card; you have to speak with sales.
Most research suggests deals land in the mid five figures per year and can climb into six figures for large enterprises.
Vendr puts the median Terminus price at about $23,000 per year, with some large customers paying $100K to $250K or more annually.

CMO.com suggests starting costs around $57,500 per year, with contracts up to $266,000, and G2 reviews point to a broad range between $18,000 and $87,000. Overall, pricing is not friendly to very small teams with tight budgets.

ZenABM, on the contrary, starts at just $59/mo.
On sites like Trustradius, Infotech.com and Software Finder, users praise Terminus for a solid UX and broad ABM coverage.
Common complaints include cost, limits on accounts per campaign, some reporting gaps and occasional integration friction with HubSpot.
Linklo bills itself as a LinkedIn Ads optimization platform built for account-based marketing-like precision.
It lets you schedule LinkedIn ads, balance ad reach across target accounts, integrate “intent” timing, and generally squeeze more efficiency from LinkedIn’s notoriously expensive ad channel.
Let’s take a deeper look at its key features and also discuss its pricing and reviews.
Linklo is laser-focused on LinkedIn Ads.
In fact, that’s the only advertising channel it manages.
The platform is essentially a power-user layer on top of LinkedIn Campaign Manager, addressing features LinkedIn itself lacks.
Its core offerings:
Perhaps Linklo’s flagship capability is automated scheduling of LinkedIn ads.
LinkedIn’s own ad platform infamously does not let you daypart or automatically pause campaigns on a schedule.
Linklo fills this gap by letting you set precise times for campaigns to run (e.g. only weekdays 8 am-8 pm).
The idea is to focus budget “where buyers actually engage” – e.g. during business hours, instead of frittering away spend at 2 am.
Linklo provides proprietary Company Flow™ feature to balance reach/frequency and orchestrate ABM-style sequences across your LinkedIn campaigns.
In plainer terms, this means Linklo tries to ensure your target accounts each see your ads in a balanced way.
Instead of LinkedIn’s algorithm dumping impressions into only a handful of accounts, Linklo’s Company Flow feature evens out the delivery so one company doesn’t gobble most of your impressions.
Company Flow also implies the ability to sequence ads, meaning you could show Ad A to an account first, then Ad B later as a follow-up.
However, let’s be clear: this is within LinkedIn only.
Linklo isn’t coordinating email touches or Sales Navigator InMails or any off-LinkedIn channels in those sequences.
It’s not a full orchestration platform like, say, Terminus (which coordinates ads, email, web personalization, etc.).
Linklo doesn’t provide any third-party intent data from sources like Bombora, etc.
It assumes you already know your target account list and focuses on delivering ads to them efficiently.
The closest thing to “intent” in Linklo’s toolkit is its use of engagement timing data.
By analyzing when your audience tends to engage on LinkedIn, Linklo can schedule ads during those intent-rich windows (e.g. if decision-makers engage more on Tuesday mornings, it will concentrate spend there).
This is useful, but it’s a far cry from the qualitative intent data that ABM platforms offer.
Pro Tip: Linklo provides no kind of intent data. Other ABM suites like 6sense, RollWorks, etc., provide intent data, but I don’t even prefer that. Third-party intent looks exciting until you realize it’s stitched together from mystery browsing data and hope. It tells you what a single contact might be googling, not what an entire buying committee actually cares about. ZenABM skips the guesswork by giving you first-party company-level intent straight from your own LinkedIn ads. You see which accounts engaged with which themes, which feature groups they reacted to, and how their interest changes over time.

Userpilot, using ZenABM, built their whole ABM campaign structure around this first-party company-buyer’s intent obtained from LinkedIn ads instead of third-party tools:

Linklo, being a lean LinkedIn-focused tool, currently has no native CRM or marketing automation integration.
The platform seems to operate mostly within its own dashboard on top of LinkedIn.
You use Linklo to adjust campaigns, and of course, your leads still flow into LinkedIn’s native lead gen forms or your CRM via LinkedIn’s connectors, but Linklo isn’t pushing account-level insights into your CRM.
ZenABM, on the contrary, does provide bi-directional CRM sync:



Personalization in ABM usually means tailoring messaging or creatives to each account or segment.
Linklo itself doesn’t create personalized ad content for you.
You still have to design the ads.
However, by orchestrating sequences and controlling frequency per account (via Company Flow), Linklo enables a form of personalization: you could line up different ads for different stages or industries and use Linklo to ensure each account sees the right sequence.

The site says that Linklo pricing starts at $199/mo.
Nothing more.
Nothing less.
Not much is available on review sites either.
That suggests a flat monthly subscription (likely for a base package), which is refreshingly transparent compared to enterprise ABM platforms that require demos just to get a quote.
At $199 a month, Linklo is positioned as a relatively affordable tool – certainly modest next to the multi-thousand-dollar contracts of full-scale ABM suites.
What do you get for $199/mo?
The details aren’t fully spelt out on the website, but presumably the base plan includes core features (scheduling, budget management, A/B testing) for one LinkedIn Ads account or a limited number of users.
It’s possible that higher spending or multiple ad accounts could require higher tiers – e.g. agencies managing many accounts might pay more, but we haven’t seen a published tier breakdown.
The “starts at” phrasing implies there are higher levels, perhaps based on ad spend or team size.
One potential concern is feature bloat relative to cost.
Linklo packs in multiple capabilities (some might say it’s bloated for just managing LinkedIn): it combines functions of a bid rule engine, an ad scheduler, a budget pacing tool, and a lightweight analytics tool. If your team only needs one of those features (say, just dayparting), $199 might feel steep.
Conversely, if you’ll actively use all those features, then $199 is a great value.
Linklo’s pricing, being subscription-based, also means you can cancel if it’s not delivering value.
This is important because some ABM investments are hard to back out of (annual contracts, long implementation).
Again, if you are looking for a LinkedIn ABM tool with clearer pricing, I present ZenABM, starting at just $59/month.

ZenABM offers account-level LinkedIn ad engagement tracking, ad engagement-to-pipeline analytics with plug-and-play dashboards, account scoring, ABM stage tracking, CRM sync, first-party qualitative intent, automated assignment of BDRs to hot accounts, custom webhooks, and ad engagement tracking at the job-title level.
For a grounded view, what are actual users (or tire-kickers) saying about Linklo?
The truth is that public user sentiment is sparse.
Linklo launched in 2023 and hasn’t amassed many reviews on major platforms yet.
On G2, for example, Linklo is listed in the Social Media Advertising category but currently sits at 0 reviews.

TrustRadius and other review sites similarly have no substantial data on Linklo (a TrustRadius search turned up empty as of late 2025).
On social media and forums, the chatter I did find was a mix of curiosity and cautious optimism.
On Reddit, Linklo’s name has popped up in discussions among pay-per-click and LinkedIn Ads practitioners.
In one thread about scheduling LinkedIn ads (a question born out of frustration with LinkedIn’s limitations), a user mentioned Linklo as a known solution, though they admitted they hadn’t used it yet.

Linklo vs. Terminus differences are summarized here (along with ZenABM for perspective).

After we have discussed Linklo vs. Terminus for ABM, let’s visit the third option: ZenABM.
ZenABM is built for teams that rely on LinkedIn as the primary ABM channel and want first-party accuracy, automation, and revenue visibility without the price or complexity of multi-channel suites.
Let’s look at its core features:


ZenABM connects to the official LinkedIn Ads API and captures account-level data for all campaigns so you can see which companies see, click, and engage with your ads.
Because this is first-party data from LinkedIn’s environment, it is more reliable than IP or cookie-based visitor ID.
A Syft study puts IP-based identification at around 42 percent accuracy.

ZenABM treats LinkedIn ad engagement itself as first-party intent. When several people in one company keep engaging with your ads, that is a strong buying signal without rented intent feeds.

ZenABM updates engagement scores as accounts interact with your ads across campaigns, so you can see who is heating up over short or long windows and let marketing and sales prioritize accounts that show real intent.
ZenABM also shows the full touchpoint timeline for each company:



ZenABM lets you define stages such as Identified, Aware, Engaged, Interested, and Opportunity and automatically places accounts in the right stage using scores and CRM data.
You control thresholds, and ZenABM tracks movement over time.


This gives you funnel visibility similar to larger suites, but powered by LinkedIn data.
ZenABM integrates bi-directionally with CRMs like HubSpot and adds Salesforce sync on higher tiers.
LinkedIn engagement data flows into the CRM as company-level properties:

Once an account crosses your score threshold, ZenABM updates the stage to Interested and automatically assigns a BDR.

ZenABM lets you derive intent topics from LinkedIn campaigns by tagging campaigns by feature, use case, or offer.
ZenABM then shows which accounts engage with which themes.

This is clean, first-party intent from owned interactions.
You can push these topics into your CRM, so sales and marketing can tailor outreach to what each company has actually explored.

ZenABM ships with dashboards that connect LinkedIn ads to account engagement, stage movement, and revenue.



ZenABM shows which job titles engage with your creatives and gives dwell time and video funnel analytics.

ZenABM provides its AI chatbot called Zena that basically answers all you want from ZenABM in natural language.
You can ask Zena open-ended questions like you would a smart analyst and get company-level answers about:
Under the hood, Zena combines OpenAI with a library of carefully designed prompts and endpoints to join ad engagement, spend and CRM deals so it can explain which campaigns drove pipeline, which accounts turned into opportunities, which formats perform best and which companies are high intent but untouched by sales.
Instead of exporting spreadsheets and stitching pivot tables, you get plain language insights, ready to drop into strategy reviews, weekly sales standups or executive updates.

ZenABM’s custom webhooks let you push events into your stack, for example, Slack alerts, enrichment flows, or other ops automations.

Most tools treat each LinkedIn campaign separately. ZenABM lets you group several into one ABM campaign object so you can see performance across regions, personas, or creative clusters.
Instead of juggling fragmented reports in Campaign Manager, you see spend, pipeline, account movement, and ROAS for the entire initiative.
For agencies, ZenABM offers a multi-client workspace.
You can manage multiple ad accounts and clients in one environment, each with its own ABM strategy, dashboards, and reporting, instead of constantly switching accounts in Campaign Manager.

ZenABM pricing details:
Choose Linklo if your biggest frustration is LinkedIn Campaign Manager itself. If you want scheduling, pacing, and better reach distribution across accounts without changing your ABM stack, Linklo does that job cleanly.
Choose Terminus if you are running a large, multi-channel ABM program with serious budget, ops support, and a need for centralized orchestration across ads, web, and sales touchpoints.
Choose ZenABM if LinkedIn is your primary ABM channel and you want:
ZenABM sits between Linklo and Terminus.
It does not try to replace LinkedIn’s bidding engine like Linklo, and it does not force you into a heavy enterprise contract like Terminus. It focuses on turning LinkedIn ad engagement into actionable ABM intelligence.
You can run Linklo for tactical ad control, Terminus for broad orchestration, and ZenABM as the clean attribution and intent layer.
Or you can skip the complexity and let ZenABM handle LinkedIn ABM end-to-end.
