How to choose a CRM

Want to start at $0? Zoho CRM’s free edition covers up to 3 users; HubSpot’s free CRM covers up to 2 users and 1,000 contacts.
Need email sync and automations? They are not on every entry plan. Pipedrive adds two-way email sync and automations at Growth ($39 per seat on annual billing), not Lite. noCRM.io offers two-way email sync on Dream ($39).
Lead-driven sales team? noCRM.io is built around leads rather than contacts and offers a 15-day trial with no card.
Planning to grow into a big platform? Salesforce Starter Suite is $25 per user a month, billed monthly or annually, with a 30-day free trial.
Budget for year two. HubSpot’s Starter price of $7 a seat is a limited-time offer for new customers; HubSpot says the normal price is $20.
