CRM software with a free trial

3 products on the register meet this rule: Freshsales, Pipedrive and Salesforce Sales Cloud. Products whose own pages offer a free trial.

The products

Every price is the vendor's own, in rand, with the date it was read, the latest on this list being 11 October 2026. A product is here only where its own pages state it. A product that is not here may still do it: the pages the register read do not say, so ask the vendor and ask to see it work.

Questions to put to the vendor

  • How long is the trial, and does it need a card?
  • Is it the whole product or a cut down version?
  • Can you bring in your own data, such as your bank statement or last month's payslips?
  • What happens to what you entered if the trial ends and you do not pay?

Guides that help

  • Run these before the trial ends
