Which CRM for startups works without hiring a full-time admin?
testing a few options for our 6person SaaS. the free tier from one of the big names got us in the door fast but now were hitting limits everywhere with contact caps, missing reports and basic automations locked behind paid plans. upgrading would jump from free to a price that feels insane at this stage. looked at a couple other popular ones but the setup time looks brutal. honestly starting to wonder if we just overcomplicated things too early or maybe a spreadsheet plus some lightweight automation wouldve been fine for another 6 months. what did you stick with in the early days? did you outgrow it fast or find something that scaled longer than expected?
