    We use Hubspot at Notesally. There is a generous free plan.

    @vivek_ganesan Vivek, HubSpot is too expensive :(

    I like hubspot Now CRM helps with such processes as: 1. Increasing revenue through better deal care and follow-up 2. Improve customer relationships 3. Accelerate Sales Cycles 4. Better internal communication and cooperation 5. Get a better understanding of customers I have been fond of this topic for a long time and it seems to me that the best CRM Software is HubSpot.

    Depends on your use case and stage. I'm a huge fan of sending non-designy emails in the early days especially. We use Airtable <> Sendgrid. Airtable manages our user database and SendGrid ensures deliverability (you can add all users with your domain as verified senders to!)

    @tanyasharma Hi, how is your experience with Sendgrid? Are they worth for what they are charging?

    @gaurav_verma10 - Ah sorry I missed this comment. We actually have some Sendgrid credits thanks to On Deck fellowship so havent started paying for it yet. I would say, in the early days optimize with free tools/ look for credits and only pay for services that are absolutely necessary to your product experience.

    Zoho and Pipedrive have interesting offers - Hubspot for a free solution

    @jennifer00 Thanks Jennifer! I was using Zoho in one of my previous orgs, but I found FreshSales and Pipedrive better. Pipedrive is in the evaluation list. Thanks :)
