Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best free CRM for a startup with a mobile sales team?
For mobile-first startups, you need a free CRM with a native mobile app, voice note logging, and offline access. 9ance's free tier includes all three — plus GPS field tracking, WhatsApp integration, and AI that converts voice notes into CRM entries in 8 seconds. No typing required.
Are there free CRMs that support automated voice note logging?
Yes. 9ance's free CRM is the only free-tier CRM that lets you speak after a call to update deals automatically. Say 'Just spoke with Rahul, he wants a quote for 50 units' and the AI creates the lead, sets the deal value, and schedules a follow-up — all from a voice note.
How do I transition from a sales spreadsheet to a free CRM software?
Import your Excel or Google Sheets data directly into the free CRM — just upload the file and map columns to CRM fields. All your leads, contacts, and deal stages transfer in minutes. The AI then takes over, reminding you of follow-ups and tracking your pipeline visually.
Is this really free? What's the catch?
No catch. The free plan includes up to 3 users with full CRM features, AI voice updates, WhatsApp integration, and unlimited leads. We make money when growing teams upgrade to paid plans for more users and advanced automation.
What happens when I need more than 3 users?
Upgrade to the Startup plan ($18/user/month) anytime. Your data, pipeline, and settings stay exactly as they are. No migration needed — just add more seats.
Is this free CRM GDPR compliant for UK businesses?
Yes. All data processing follows GDPR guidelines — consent management, right to deletion, data portability, and encrypted storage. UK and EU startups can use the platform with full regulatory confidence.
How is this different from HubSpot or Zoho free tiers?
Three key differences: (1) AI voice updates — speak to update deals instead of typing, (2) Native WhatsApp CRM built-in — not a paid add-on, (3) IndiaMART and TradeIndia integration for B2B lead capture. Plus 140+ language support that no other free CRM offers.
Can I use this free CRM for field sales tracking?
Yes. The free plan includes GPS-based field force tracking, check-in/check-out for customer visits, expense logging, and route optimization. Perfect for startups with sales reps visiting clients in the field.
Your Startup Deserves a Real CRM.
Not a spreadsheet. Not a ₹5000/month tool you can't afford. A free, AI-powered CRM built for teams like yours.
