The short version

  • Only Copper has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Copper the Basic plan caps at 2,500 contacts and 25 companies, which is small for a CRM at $23 per user per month; Salesflare enterprise carries a five seat minimum, so its 99 dollar per user headline is really a 495 dollar monthly floor, and a three person team wanting the training and migration that tier includes still pays for five.
  • They diverge on capability: Copper covers Gmail integration, Salesflare covers Automated data entry.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 2 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Copper

  • The Basic plan caps at 2,500 contacts and 25 companies, which is small for a CRM at $23 per user per month
  • Professional at $59 per user per month still caps at 15,000 contacts and 50 companies
  • Workflow automation, bulk email and reporting all require Professional
  • Email sequences, custom reports and multi-currency are Business tier only at $99 per user per month
  • The advertised prices are the annual rates; monthly billing runs from $29 to $134 per user

Salesflare

  • Enterprise carries a five seat minimum, so its 99 dollar per user headline is really a 495 dollar monthly floor, and a three person team wanting the training and migration that tier includes still pays for five.
  • Lead enrichment credits are metered and Growth includes only five a month, so any prospecting workflow effectively requires Pro or a credit top-up, priced from 39 dollars for two hundred and fifty.
  • The automation depends on connected mailboxes and calendars, so deals worked over phone, WhatsApp or in person leave large gaps in the timeline the product is meant to fill.
  • Email workflows, permissions and custom dashboards are all withheld from the entry Growth tier, which means most teams that evaluate on the 29 dollar price actually buy at 49 dollars.
  • It is built for B2B pipelines with named accounts and has little to offer high-volume B2C sales, field service dispatch or any process that is not a small number of relationship-led opportunities.
