Capsule CRM and OnePageCRM take different approaches to the same small-business CRM problem. Capsule offers a genuine free plan and AI features like an AI…
Best for Capsule CRM: Small teams that want to start on a genuinely free plan (2 users, 250 contacts), need project management tied to deals, or want AI-assisted enrichment and pipeline generation, and are comfortable requesting a quote for paid-tier pricing.
Best for OnePageCRM: Sales teams that want a single prioritized action list instead of a dashboard, need unlimited contacts/deals/fields on every tier including the entry plan, and want transparent published pricing plus free bundled add-ons like a business card scanner and sales dialer.

Key Differences
Free (non-trial) plan
Capsule CRM: Offers a free plan for up to 2 users with 250 contacts, 1 pipeline, and 5 custom fields.
OnePageCRM: Has no free (non-trial) plan — only a 21-day free trial with no credit card required.
Teams wanting to run a CRM indefinitely at zero cost, without a trial deadline, can do so on Capsule but not OnePageCRM.
Core workflow paradigm
Capsule CRM: Organizes work around customizable sales pipelines and project boards.
OnePageCRM: Centralizes leads into a single next-action to-do list (Action Stream) rather than a traditional dashboard.
Reps who find pipeline dashboards overwhelming may work faster with a single prioritized action list; teams managing multi-stage projects may prefer Capsule's pipeline/project view.
Contact storage limits
Capsule CRM: Free plan is capped at 250 contacts; paid tiers scale to 30,000, 60,000, and 120,000 contacts by plan.
OnePageCRM: Stores unlimited contacts, deals, fields, and tags on every tier, including the entry Professional plan.
Growing teams that don't want to think about contact caps at any tier may prefer OnePageCRM's unlimited-by-default model.
AI feature type
Capsule CRM: Includes an AI Pipeline Generator, AI Business/Contact Enrichment, and AI meeting prep (beta).
OnePageCRM: Includes an AI route planner within the mobile app for planning sales visit routes.
Capsule's AI targets data enrichment and pipeline setup; OnePageCRM's AI targets field-sales logistics. The right fit depends on whether the team needs data enrichment or route optimization.
Pricing transparency
Capsule CRM: Does not publish exact per-user pricing for the Starter, Growth, or Advanced plans on its pricing page.
OnePageCRM: Publishes exact prices for all three tiers (Professional, Business, Max).
Buyers who want to compare costs without contacting sales get a clearer answer from OnePageCRM.
