Ranked by the lowest list price of each CRM’s cheapest paid plan, per user per month on annual billing, in US dollars before tax; ties share a rank. Prices were read from each vendor’s pricing page on 2026-10-16 and are vendor-stated list prices. Monthly-billing prices are shown where the page gave them; “Not captured” means we couldn’t switch the page to that term, and we haven’t calculated it. Each row is one user on the plan shown; seat minimums and limits are in the columns and the text. Free-trial length is given only where the page states it. AI credits are a vendor-specific unit and aren’t compared. Left out: HubSpot, whose free CRM covers up to 2 users but whose Starter listing is a bundle of Hubs at “$20/mo/seat” with a limited-time offer for new customers rather than one CRM plan;11 monday CRM, whose per-seat price ($12 annual, $18 monthly for Basic) depends on a team-size selector set to 10 seats;12 and Nutshell, whose $13 Foundation price we couldn’t tie to a billing term.13 Salesforce’s page didn’t load and Insightly’s blocked automated visits. This is a price comparison, not advice on which plan suits a business.
