Instead of Pipedrive
Stop renting Pipedrive. Own your CRM.
We build your version around how you sell, follow up and track deals, bring your Pipedrive data across, and run it for you. No plan tiers, and the system is yours.
Pipedrive charges per seat, per month, with reporting, automations and add-ons locked behind higher tiers.

What you are paying for
Most of a Pipedrive bill is the front end
The customer list is yours. The screens around it are what you rent, and the rent is set per person, per month, per tier.
A seat for everyone who looks
Every person who needs to see the pipeline is another monthly seat, including the ones who open it twice a month.
Features gated by tier
Reporting, automations and custom fields sit on the next plan up. The upgrade is always one tier away.
Add-ons on top of the plan
Lead capture, email campaigns, documents and a project board each bill separately.
Your data behind their export
Your customer history lives in their system. Leaving means CSV exports and a rebuild.
Dashboards that answer their questions
Reports show what the vendor decided to chart. The question you actually have is a filter you cannot build.
Admin instead of selling
Moving cards, logging calls and tidying fields is the work the tool creates, not the work it removes.
What you get instead
A CRM you talk to
Pipeline
Ask for the pipeline, get the answer
The data is plain records. Claude Code reads them, so any question you can phrase gets answered, not just the ones on a dashboard.
- check Deals by stage with value and weighted value
- check What moved this week and what is stuck
- check Win rate, average deal size, days to close
- check Any question you can phrase, not just the ones on the dashboard
Follow-ups
It tells you who has gone quiet
One command lists every open deal, task and contact that needs a nudge, then drafts the nudge from the full history.
- check Open deals with no activity in 14 days
- check Overdue tasks and contacts nobody has spoken to in a month
- check A follow-up email drafted from the full timeline, in your voice
- check Nothing sends without you
Your data
A database you own
Runs on a laptop with no database install, or on your own shared database for a team. Plain records any tool can read.

Switching
How to switch from Pipedrive
Moving off Pipedrive is mostly one export, one import command, and a short stretch running both systems side by side before you turn Pipedrive off.
- 1
Export your Pipedrive data
In Pipedrive, export Organizations, Persons and Deals as CSV files. These three exports carry the pieces the CRM needs: companies, the people at them, and every deal with its stage, value and notes attached. Sample files in the same shape are included in the free version if you want to see the format before exporting your real account.
- 2
Import them with one command
Import your three CSV files into the new system. It maps your Pipedrive stages onto Lead, Qualified, Proposal, Negotiation, Won and Lost. It is safe to do more than once: records match on their Pipedrive ids, so importing again updates records instead of duplicating them.
- 3
Check what didn't carry over
Read the guide before you rely on the import. It spells out what does not carry over from Pipedrive, and shows exactly which file feeds which type of record. Check the numbers against your Pipedrive account: same company count, same deal count, same total pipeline value.
- 4
Run both systems side by side
Keep Pipedrive open for a short stretch while you start working from the new system. Log calls and move deals in both places, then compare the pipeline view and follow-ups list against what Pipedrive shows. Once the numbers match and the team is comfortable working this way instead of clicking through screens, you are ready to stop.
- 5
Turn off Pipedrive
Once your team is working entirely from the new commands and you have confirmed the import brought over what you need, cancel Pipedrive. Your data now lives in your own database, with no per-seat fee and no vendor holding your pipeline.
Where the real effort goes
The real work is not the import command, it is deciding how your Pipedrive stages, custom fields and rules should map onto the new database, and how much history is worth bringing across. That takes judgment about your own process, not just a CSV file. Enterprise DNA handles this mapping and migration for you as part of the installed version.
