We use Hubspot at Notesally. There is a generous free plan.

I like hubspot
Now CRM helps with such processes as:
1. Increasing revenue through better deal care and follow-up
2. Improve customer relationships
3. Accelerate Sales Cycles
4. Better internal communication and cooperation
5. Get a better understanding of customers
I have been fond of this topic for a long time and it seems to me that the best CRM Software is HubSpot. You can read more about CRM software here: https://www.findmycrm.com/crm-di...
Depends on your use case and stage. I'm a huge fan of sending non-designy emails in the early days especially.
We use Airtable <> Sendgrid. Airtable manages our user database and SendGrid ensures deliverability (you can add all users with your domain as verified senders to!)

@tanyasharma Hi, how is your experience with Sendgrid? Are they worth for what they are charging?
@gaurav_verma10 - Ah sorry I missed this comment. We actually have some Sendgrid credits thanks to On Deck fellowship so havent started paying for it yet. I would say, in the early days optimize with free tools/ look for credits and only pay for services that are absolutely necessary to your product experience.
Zoho and Pipedrive have interesting offers - Hubspot for a free solution
@jennifer00 Thanks Jennifer! I was using Zoho in one of my previous orgs, but I found FreshSales and Pipedrive better. Pipedrive is in the evaluation list. Thanks :)
