From and Includes are each tool's cheapest paid plan, on its cheaper billing. The other columns cover every plan.
HubSpot Sales Hub Starter
$7 a month
- Credits
- 500
- Users
- Priced per user
- Free trial
- Not listed
- Refund
- None
- Free plan
- Yes
If you buy one seat, $7 a month beats Freshsales Growth. That one costs $11 per user monthly.
The catch is the allowance. Each seat includes 500 HubSpot Credits. Use more and you pay overages at catalog rates.
You also cannot cancel before your term ends. Payments are non-refundable. To leave, turn off auto-renew in your account first.
- Best if
- You buy for one seat or a few and want the lowest paid price.
- Skip it if
- You need one flat price for a whole team, since this price is per seat.
Zoho CRM Free
Free
- Credits
- Not listed
- Users
- 3 included
- Free trial
- Yes
- Refund
- 45 days
- Free plan
- Yes
Three seats, $0, no end date. HubSpot's free tools also cost $0, but cover 2 seats.
If you outgrow it, the first paid step is Zoho CRM Bigin Express. It costs $9 per user monthly, or $7 on yearly billing.
The catch is the climb after that: $20 per user monthly on Standard. Zoho's page gives no figure for the free plan's caps. Test them before you build around it.
- Best if
- You want to start at $0 with three seats.
- Skip it if
- You want the step up to be Zoho CRM itself. The cheapest paid plan is Bigin Express.
Freshsales Growth
$9 a month, billed yearly
$11 on monthly billing
- Credits
- Not listed
- Users
- Priced per user
- Free trial
- 21 days
- Refund
- None
- Free plan
- None
Use the 21 days to test Growth with your whole team before you pay. Growth costs $11 per user monthly, or $9 on yearly billing. Pipedrive's trial lasts 14 days.
The catch starts after the trial. Payments are non-refundable. You cannot cut seats or downgrade mid-term. Ten seats cost $110 a month on monthly billing.
- Best if
- You want the most days to try a CRM before paying.
- Skip it if
- You want a plan that stays free, because a trial ends.
Keap Platform
$320 a month, billed monthly
- Credits
- Not listed
- Users
- 2 included
- Free trial
- Yes
- Refund
- 90 days
- Free plan
- None
You get 90 days to ask for your money back on a $320 plan. Zoho CRM gives 45 days on its paid plans. Two users come with the plan.
The catch is the contract. Quit before a one-year term ends and Keap bills $299. Extra users cost $39 a month each.
Texts beyond your allowance cost $0.015 each. To cancel, you call support at least 10 days before your next invoice.
- Best if
- You want a long window to back out after paying.
- Skip it if
- You might leave within a year, since early exit carries a fee.
Shop on one need: price, free plan, trial or refund
You usually buy a CRM for one reason. The picks answer four needs, each with its own measure.
Lowest paid price ranks the cheapest paid plan. Free plans rank on seats. Trials rank on days, and so do refund windows.
Each tool appears once. When two tie, the vendor with the cheaper paid plan wins. After that, the alphabet decides.
A listed price skips seats, contacts and renewal terms
Headline prices rarely say how many seats, contacts or sends they cover. Per-seat and flat prices do not compare head to head. Renewal terms and extra-seat fees sit outside the number you see.
Open the CRM picker to narrow the field first. Read each tool in depth in the CRM hub.
Match your one need to its pick. Then price your team size in the true cost tool before you pay.
