How do I move from Octopus CRM to GrabProspect?

Is GrabProspect or Octopus CRM safer for my LinkedIn account?
No tool can promise LinkedIn will never restrict an account. GrabProspect keeps each account at a human pace: a different start minute each day, short irregular gaps between actions, daily and weekly caps, and it stops for the week when LinkedIn’s weekly invitation limit is reached.
