Every Close alternative we review
| Alternative | Category | Roles | Entry price | Who it's for | What you give up vs Close |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AttioClose vs Attio → | CRM | AE, REVOPS, CSM | Plus $29 per seat / month | Founder-led to Series B B2B teams (typically <50 reps) who want a flexible AI-native CRM, custom object modeling, and a modern collaborative UX over enterprise reporting depth or AppExchange ecosystem breadth. | Call recording, Dialer, Webhooks |
| CopperClose vs Copper → | CRM | AE, CSM, AM, REVOPS | Starter $12 per seat / month | Small-to-mid sales teams (5–100 reps) fully committed to Google Workspace who want a CRM that auto-captures activity from Gmail and Calendar — not Outlook shops, not teams that need bundled marketing automation, and not enterprise RevOps with complex territory rules. | Call recording, CRM integration, Dialer, Lead scoring, Webhooks |
| FolkClose vs Folk → | CRM | AE, AM, CSM | Standard $20 per seat / month | Agencies, founder-led sales, VC investor relations, and partnership / BD teams (1–15 seats) who track relationships over multi-year horizons and live in LinkedIn + email — not high-volume outbound SDR orgs or enterprise sales with formal stage gates. | Call recording, CRM integration, Dialer, Email sequencing, Lead scoring |
| FreshsalesClose vs Freshsales → | CRM | AE, SDR, CSM, AM, REVOPS | Growth $11 per seat / month | SMB sales teams (10–150 reps) who want CRM, sequences, and AI lead scoring in one bill — especially if Freshdesk or Freshchat is already in the stack. Not for enterprise RevOps with complex territory management, multi-currency reporting at scale, or heavy AppExchange dependencies. | Call recording, CRM integration, Dialer, Webhooks |
| HubSpotClose vs HubSpot → | CRM | SDR, AE, CSM, AM, REVOPS | Pro $100 per seat / month | Series A–C B2B SaaS up to ~100 employees who want one unified CRM/marketing/service data layer, fast admin onboarding, and AI that ships in the box. Wrong fit for 100+-rep enterprise motions with multi-product comp plans or regulated industry custom-object requirements that genuinely need [Salesforce](/tools/salesforce). | Call recording, Dialer, Lead scoring, Webhooks |
| Microsoft Dynamics 365 SalesClose vs Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sales → | CRM | AE, REVOPS, CSM, AM | Professional $65 per seat / month | Mid-market and enterprise B2B teams already on Microsoft 365 + Azure, with IT/RevOps owners comfortable in Power Platform and a preference for Outlook-native rep UX over a standalone CRM. | Call recording, CRM integration, Dialer, Email sequencing, Slack integration, Webhooks |
| PipedriveClose vs Pipedrive → | CRM | AE, SDR, REVOPS | Essential $14 per seat / month | Pre-Series-B sales-led SMBs with 3–30 reps who need pipeline visibility, light automation, and a clean mobile experience — not multi-product enterprises or marketing-led PLG companies. | Call recording, CRM integration, Email sequencing, Lead scoring, Webhooks |
| Salesforce Sales Cloud + AgentforceClose vs Salesforce Sales Cloud + Agentforce → | CRM | SDR, AE, SE, CSM, AM, REVOPS | Starter $25 per seat / month | Series C+ B2B with 25+ quota-carrying reps, multi-product or regulated sales motion, named RevOps owners, and budget for a Salesforce admin or partner. Wrong for sub-25-rep PLG teams that still need a CRM to feel friendly. | Call recording, Dialer, Email sequencing, Webhooks |
| Zoho CRMClose vs Zoho CRM → | CRM | AE, CSM, REVOPS, AM | Standard $14 per seat / month | Global SMB and mid-market teams (10–200 employees) optimizing for total stack cost across CRM, accounting, support, and marketing — especially APAC, MENA, and LATAM markets where Zoho's localization and pricing land hardest. | Call recording, Dialer, Email sequencing, Webhooks |
