Teamgate comparisons: FAQs
How do you compare Teamgate with other CRMs?
We compare each CRM on its official US pricing page, viewed in US English, alongside Teamgate's own published US$ prices and plan features. We do not use review-site ratings or scores, and every page includes a section on when the other CRM is the better fit.
How are prices checked and dated?
Every competitor price is the vendor's published list price on the date shown, with its currency and billing basis. Where a vendor displays a temporary offer, we show it next to the list price with its date.
Who is Teamgate a good fit for, and who isn't it for?
Teamgate suits small sales teams that want a sales CRM, with plans from free (Starter, 2 users, new customers only) to US$39.90 per user per month for Team and US$59.90 for Growth, billed annually. It is not the best fit if you need built-in AI, more than 2 users on a free plan, or a service desk and marketing automation suite in one product.

Yes. Import your records into Teamgate as XLSX, CSV or vCard files; mass import is on Team and Growth. Formal onboarding and training are included on Growth. Complex migrations may be charged on lower plans. Support is available to all customers on every plan.
Can I try Teamgate before I buy?
Yes. Start a 14-day free trial – no credit card required – or book a demo to see Teamgate with your own pipeline.
