5 budget alternatives of expensive software

5 budget alternatives of expensive software
5 budget alternatives of expensive software

Companies often choose well -known software solutions, believing that they are the best choice. However, many products of the industry are accompanied by a high price. Fortunately, there are more affordable alternatives that offer similar functionality without significant costs. Here are five popular tools for which you may pay too much, and their more budget analogues.

 CRM

It costs a whole state: SalesForce 

SalesForce is a powerful platform for managing customer relationships (CRM), but often its functionality is redundant for companies that do not need such an extensive ecosystem. The high cost makes it less affordable for small commands. At the starting price of € 165 per month and complex development, it may be time to consider alternative decisions.

Alternative: Pipedrive 

Pipedrive is an intuitive and convenient CRM system developed so that the teams can focus on sales, and not on data management. Its visually attractive interface allows you to easily track leads, transactions and indicators without the need for long -term training. At a cost of only € 14 per month, its functionality is more than enough for most teams focused on sales.

 

Video conferences

Monopoly collapses: zoom 

Zoom has become a synonym for video conferences, but the cost of its advanced functions, such as webinars and large -scale meetings, can reach thousands of euros. For companies regularly organizing events, this is not always the most profitable solution.

Alternative: Livestorm 

Livestorm is a great replacement of Zoom, specially created for webinars, living events and virtual meetings. This is a convenient platform with functions such as analytics of events, automated work processes and involvement tools, including polls and sessions of questions and answers. Services are more transparent, and the basic tariff plan starts from € 0 per month.

 

Project management

Confusing pricing policy: monday 

Monday.com is a popular project management platform, offering a wide range of functions. However, despite its versatility, its price model can quickly become expensive, especially if access to advanced tools or the participation of a large team is required. For example, the basic tariff plan includes CRM for € 12, Work Management for € 9 and an additional € 9 for DEV tools. As a result, the user has to pay about € 30 per month only for the main functions of Monday.

Alternative: Clickup 

Clickup combines the management management, time tracking, joint editing of documents and much more in one powerful platform at an affordable price. It offers a similar level of customization and automation, allowing the teams to remain productive without unnecessary costs. In addition, Clickup was created taking into account scalability, adapting to the growth of business. At a cost of only € 10 per month, you get all the monday functionality and even more!

 

IT support

High cost of basic functions: TeamViewer 

TeamViewer is a leader among decisions for remote access, but its price may seem high for commands or individual users who need only the basic functionality of remote support. With a starting cost € 14 per month, expenses for large organizations increase rapidly.

Alternative: Getscreen.me 

Getscreen.me offers a convenient and affordable solution for a remote desktop, which is ideal for one-time users and IT teams. It includes all the necessary functions, such as access through the browser, joint use of the screen and integration with other tools. At a starting price of only € 6 per month, this option is much more profitable than the premium plans for TeamViewer.

 

Joint work / ERP

It can be more expensive than you need: ODOO 

The ODOO modular ERP system covers everything from CRM to the control of the warehouse, but its cost increases significantly as new applications and users are added. This is an excellent comprehensive solution, but not every business requires a complete set of its capabilities.

Alternative: Bitrix24 

Bitrix24 is a powerful platform offering CRM, tasks and tools for working together for free or at a much lower price, starting only from € 12 per month. It also includes video conferences, sites designer and staff management, which makes it an attractive choice for companies looking for a universal solution.

Before choosing software, evaluate your real needs and study alternatives. Overpayment for software not only reduces business profitability, but can also lead to the use of tools with unnecessary complexity. 📌 Need expert recommendations?
