Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Achievers
- Pricing is not published and requires a demo
- Aimed at mid-market and enterprise organisations rather than small teams
- Sold as separate named modules, Recognize, Reward and Celebrate, so a full programme means more than one line on the quote
Capsule CRM
- Free plan caps at 250 contacts and a maximum of 2 users, with only 1 sales pipeline
- Starter plan, the cheapest paid tier, still caps at 30,000 contacts before requiring an upgrade to Growth (60,000) or Advanced (120,000)
- Ultimate tier, aimed at teams of 5 or more users, has no published price and requires contacting sales
- Marketing features are not included in any core plan; the Transpond marketing add-on costs an additional $11/month minimum on top of the CRM price
