The short version

  • Only Agile CRM has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Adyen there is a minimum monthly invoice, set by industry and business model and only disclosed through the sales team, so small volumes are not economic; Agile CRM the Internet Archive's capture of Agile CRM's pricing page on 29 December 2022 listed Starter at $8.99 per user per month (2-year rate), Regular at $29.99, and Enterprise at $47.99, with the Free tier capped at 10 users and 1,000 contacts.
  • They diverge on capability: Adyen covers Payment processing, Agile CRM covers Contact management.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Adyen

  • There is a minimum monthly invoice, set by industry and business model and only disclosed through the sales team, so small volumes are not economic
  • Published fees are indicative rather than a rate card, with real pricing negotiated
  • Interchange++ means the card cost varies per transaction rather than being a single predictable percentage
  • Alternative payment methods carry their own rates on top, such as 3.3 percent plus $0.10 for American Express in North America

Agile CRM

  • The Internet Archive's capture of Agile CRM's pricing page on 29 December 2022 listed Starter at $8.99 per user per month (2-year rate), Regular at $29.99, and Enterprise at $47.99, with the Free tier capped at 10 users and 1,000 contacts.
