Range Yourself

CRM Under $25 Per User Per Month

Updated August 6, 2026 · 8 CRMs checked against their own pricing pages

7 of the 8 CRMs in this index come in at or under $25 per user a month, and only 6 of those get there without committing to twelve months. That gap is what this page exists to make visible, because the figure every one of these pricing pages shows you first is the annual one. The cheapest on annual billing is HubSpot Sales Hub at $7 per user; the cheapest you can walk away from after a month is HubSpot Sales Hub at $10, though both of those figures are current discounts against a struck-through $20 list price rather than standing rates. Every figure is quoted from the vendor’s own page and dated, and the tier limits sit beside each price because at this end of the market they are what you are actually choosing between.

RangeYourself has no affiliate relationship with any CRM on this page as of August 6, 2026: every link here goes straight to the vendor’s own site and earns us nothing. We may pursue one in this category, and if we do we will say so here. Either way the ordering follows published prices and each vendor’s own stated terms, and a vendor that pays nothing is listed on exactly the same basis as one that does.

Under $25 per user on annual billing

Ranked by month-to-month price where one is published, so the sort matches the rest of this cluster. The annual figure and the premium for staying monthly are in the next two columns.

What a team of three pays in year one

Arithmetic on published figures only, at each vendor’s cheapest paid tier. Read the seat caps in the table above alongside it: 1 of these cheapest tiers is capped at a single user, so the arithmetic is a floor rather than a quote.

CRMYear one for a team of 3How that is made up
HubSpot Sales Hub$252$7/user/mo billed annually on Starter, times 12 months, times 3 seats. The rate used is a current discount against a struck-through $20 per-seat list price rather than a standing rate, so this total assumes the discount holds for twelve months.
Close$324$9/user/mo billed annually on Solo, times 12 months, times 3 seats.
Freshsales$324$9/user/mo billed annually on Growth, times 12 months, times 3 seats.
monday CRM$432$12/user/mo billed annually on Basic, times 12 months, times 3 seats. This vendor's per-seat rate moves with team size; the rate used here was read at 10 seats.
Pipedrive$504$14/user/mo billed annually on Lite, times 12 months, times 3 seats.
Zoho CRM$504$14/user/mo billed annually on Standard, times 12 months, times 3 seats.
Copper$828$23/user/mo billed annually on Basic, times 12 months, times 3 seats.

The free tiers, which are a different decision

3 of the 8 CRMs publish a permanently free tier rather than only a trial. A free tier is not a cheaper paid tier, so these are listed rather than ranked:

What is above the ceiling, and why it is here

Naming what a ceiling page leaves out is part of making it honest. Above $25 per user a month even on annual billing, as of August 6, 2026:

How this page is verified

Every figure on this page was read from the vendor’s own pricing page and is stored with that page’s URL, a verbatim quote, and the date it was checked (most recent: August 6, 2026). Most of these pages render their prices in the browser rather than in the served HTML, so they were read in a browser at the same URL, with both billing toggles set in turn. Where a vendor publishes no number, we say so instead of repeating a figure from elsewhere. A blank in the calling column means the vendor’s pricing page names no calling capability, which is a statement about the page and not a claim about the product. Percentages and totals are arithmetic on published figures only. See our editorial standards and how we verify.

Is there a genuinely free CRM?

HubSpot Sales Hub, Zoho CRM, Attio each publish a free tier on their own pricing pages, with the seat caps listed on this page. A free tier is a different product decision from a cheap one, so they are listed separately rather than ranked at $0.

What do these cheap tiers leave out?

Usually automation, and sometimes the ability to have a team at all. The table on this page prints each cheap tier’s stated limits next to its price, because at this end of the market the limits are what you are choosing between.
