Leave Copper. Keep Gmail.
Copper's Google Workspace integration is its strongest pitch. We replicate the Gmail / Calendar tightness without the per-seat license.

Why teams leave Copper
The four reasons we hear most often.
Reason 01
Annual-only billing
Copper bills annually upfront, making mid-year right-sizing impossible.
Reason 02
Limited reporting
Copper's reporting is intentionally basic. Real analysis requires exports.
Reason 03
Add-ons for table-stakes features
Workflow automations, dashboards, and AI sit behind tier upgrades.
The math
What Copper actually costs.
Public list pricing plus the add-ons most teams end up buying. Implementation and admin overhead extra.
| Line item | Cost |
|---|---|
Business tier | $134 / seat / mo annual |
Add-ons | $$ |
| Real all-in | ~$95 effective per seat all-in |
What we migrate
Every record.
Every field.
Specifically, from Copper. Nothing is left behind to "migrate later."
- People, Companies, Opportunities, Projects
- Pipeline stages and custom fields
- Gmail thread links and calendar events
- Activity history, files
Our recommendation
Replace Copper with Twenty (open source).
Twenty integrates with Gmail and Google Calendar via the same Google APIs Copper uses. The day-one experience for a Copper user is essentially identical, minus the seat fee.
Not the right fit?
We also build fully bespoke CRMs, deploy Twenty / EspoCRM / NocoBase to other variants, and integrate with whatever you're keeping. The audit covers the choice.

Compare against another CRM
Pipedrive alternative
Pipedrive's pipeline UI is great. Its growing add-on tax — LeadBooster, Smart Docs, Campaigns, AI Sales Assistant — is not. We rebuild the UI without the upsells.
HubSpot alternative
Sales Hub, Marketing Hub, Service Hub, Operations Hub — your bill compounds with every Hub. We replace the suite with one CRM you actually own.
Freshsales (Freshworks) alternative
Freshsales is a clean out-of-the-box CRM. The moment you need real customization, Freddy AI on your data, or non-template integrations — the limits show up.
