Several CRM platforms have transparent, publicly displayed pricing without requiring you to speak to a salesperson to find out what they cost. If pricing transparency is your priority, I'd start with these five: CRM platforms with public pricing --------------------------------- CRM Starting paid price Best for --- --- --- Freshsales $9/user/mo Small sales teams Zoho CRM $14/user/mo Small and growing businesses Pipedrive $14/user/mo Sales pipeline management Less Annoying CRM $15/user/mo…

  1. Freshworks — Best budget option: Freshsales – Affordable entry-level sales CRM. ↑ 1 vs last week
  2. Zoho — Best overall value: Zoho CRM – Multiple published tiers, broad functionality, and room to grow. ↑ 3 vs last week
  3. Pipedrive — Best sales-focused CRM: Pipedrive – Easy-to-understand plans built around sales pipelines. ↑ 1 vs last week
  4. Less Annoying CRM — Best pricing simplicity: Less Annoying CRM – Straightforward pricing without a complicated tier structure. ↑ 2 vs last week
  5. HubSpot — Best sales and marketing combination: HubSpot – Generous free starting point, but watch for higher-tier costs and onboarding fees. ↑ 2 vs last week
