Where each one falls short

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

Mixmax

  • Free plan severely limits email tracking to 20 emails per month
  • Download tracking in Outlook only works through web app, not desktop
  • Tracking indicators not supported for Outlook desktop users
  • Limited integration with email clients beyond Gmail

Less Annoying CRM

  • There is no free tier, only a single $15 per user per month price
  • File storage is capped at 25 GB per user
  • The vendor advises staying below 50,000 total contacts, so very large databases sit outside the intended use even though no hard limit is enforced
