Freshsales
AI-powered sales CRM by Freshworks.
Freshsales is the dark-horse pick — built by Freshworks, who earned trust in the helpdesk space first. The AI features (lead scoring, contact enrichment, next-best-action) are usable on day one without a consultant. Pricing undercuts HubSpot Marketing Hub by a meaningful margin.
