Twenty CRM

The modern open-source CRM — the best-designed option, and the youngest.

88
sovereignty

A ground-up open-source CRM with an interface built to compete with Attio and modern HubSpot rather than with 2015 CRMs. Rapid development, a strong data model, and the one on this list that a sales team will not resent using daily.

What it does well

  • +By some distance the best interface of any open-source CRM
  • +Active, well-funded development and a clear product direction
  • +Sensible modern stack that a JavaScript team can extend without pain

Where it falls short

  • −Youngest option here — features still land and change between releases
  • −Automation and reporting are behind EspoCRM and far behind HubSpot
  • −Migrating onto a fast-moving project means keeping up with it
