Custom CRM vs generic CRM
When a tailored sales or client portal beats configuring off-the-shelf CRM for lean and B2B teams.
When generic CRM is enough
Standard pipeline, contact, and email tools work when your sales process matches the product and you do not need deep integrations or AI-assisted workflows.
When custom CRM wins
Lean B2B teams, agencies, and product founders often need team-scoped workspaces, sector-specific pipeline stages, and AI tools tuned to how they sell - not enterprise bloat.
