Choosing the right CRM isn’t just about flashy features. Businesses need solutions that genuinely fit their workflows and industry demands. HubSpot is popular, but its rigid structure and high price tag can limit customisation and flexibility.
Enter BuddyCRM – a UK-based alternative designed with adaptability and affordability in mind, especially for industries like manufacturing, construction, wholesale, logistics, and engineering. Here’s why BuddyCRM stands out.
🛠️ Custom Solutions Built Around Your Business
BuddyCRM doesn’t do “one-size-fits-all.” Every solution is tailored to fit your unique needs. We start by taking the time to understand your business, its processes, and the challenges you face. This means consultation calls, in-depth demos, and even on-site visits if necessary.
BuddyCRM is built with flexibility in mind. Unlike off-the-shelf software, it can adapt to your workflows instead of forcing you to adjust. Plus, all that hands-on setup and personalisation work? It’s included in every plan, so there’s no extra charge. With BuddyCRM, you get a system that feels built just for you.
💬 Unlimited and Dedicated Support for Every Client
Need a question answered or an issue resolved? At BuddyCRM, support is unlimited, and it’s always there when you need it. Clients with plans above the entry level are assigned a dedicated CRM manager to handle concerns before, during, and after deployment.
Unlike big-name CRMs, we prioritise real, ongoing support tailored to each business’s needs. And we don’t just leave you to “figure it out” once the CRM is live. BuddyCRM includes thorough staff training to make sure your team is confident and capable in using every tool and feature.
💷 Cost-Effective Pricing That Makes Sense
Let’s talk numbers. HubSpot’s CRM plans start at a hefty US$1,170/month for just five users, with each additional seat costing $45. This can push costs beyond the reach of small to mid-sized businesses or those looking for flexibility.
BuddyCRM’s plans, on the other hand, start at £75 per user per month. There are no hidden fees, and you only pay for what you need. This pricing structure means you can access powerful CRM functionality without draining your budget.
📜 A UK-Based CRM for Local Expertise and Support
BuddyCRM is based in the UK, so we’re already in tune with the specifics of UK and EU markets, regulations, and industries. This local advantage means we can provide more relevant support and insight, particularly for UK businesses. There’s no need to explain local compliance standards or time-zone issues – we’re right here and ready to help.
⚙️ Expertise in Manufacturing, Wholesale, Construction, Logistics, and Engineering
BuddyCRM’s expertise shines in industries where operational efficiency and precise workflows are critical.
