How we grade them
| 2.4GPAKommoFair | 1.8GPALeadSimpleWeak | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | CBase is $25 a user a month, which is about the middle for the CRMs here, and Pro is $45. The catch is the commitment: no monthly billing, so it's $150 a user before you start. Pipeline automation, broadcasts and bots, the reason most people come, start on Advanced at $35. | D$169 a month on a 12-month term, or $199 monthly, for 50 doors. That's in the dearest tenth of the CRM category, which starts at $169, and doors past 50 cost extra. |
| Free plan and trial | CNo free plan. The 14-day trial has every feature, 10 GB of storage and no card asked for. Make it count, because the next step is six months paid in advance. | D14-day trial of the full platform, but it needs a credit card. No free plan. |
| Features | BOne inbox for WhatsApp, Instagram, TikTok, Messenger, Telegram, live chat and email, up to 50 pipelines, a no-code bot builder, AI agents, booking pages and ad audience sync. For selling by chat that's the job covered, but Base has none of the automation and active leads are capped per seat. | CCRM pipelines, workflows, calling, texting, leasing and maintenance. It's built for property management only, and extra pipelines, minutes and credits all cost more. |
| Ease of use | CNo rating on record, and before it does anything you're connecting channels, building pipelines and wiring up bots. The bot builder is visual and no-code, which helps. One quirk: everyone on an account has to be on the same plan. | CNo store rating on record. You set up pipelines and workflows, and sync a property management system. |
| Platforms and integrations | BWeb, iPhone and Android, with no desktop app. It connects to WhatsApp Business, Instagram, Messenger, TikTok, Telegram, Zapier, Shopify and Mailchimp, and there's an API. Base includes 1 WhatsApp number, and Pro has unlimited channels. | BWeb app with AppFolio, Buildium, Rentvine, Propertyware, Rent Manager and Zapier links. |
| Best for | businesses that sell over WhatsApp and Instagram | property management firms that want a CRM and phone together |

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
