The 30-Second Verdict
Pick Conduyt if...
you need a CRM that does more than outbound calling: pipeline management, custom objects, webhook automation, and flat pricing that doesn't punish team growth.
Start the 20-day free trial →Pick Close if...
your team lives on the phone and you are fine paying per seat for it. Close's calling is strong, but the power dialer needs Growth at $109/seat and the predictive dialer needs Scale at $149/seat.
Switching from Close
Close offers CSV export for contacts, leads, and opportunities. Email sequence logic needs manual recreation. Call recordings can be exported but require separate storage.
