Less Annoying CRM has charged new customers the same price since July 2020, and accounts opened before then still pay the old one. That makes the bill easy to work out. The harder question is what the money buys a team that sells deals, and where Fluid CRM does it differently.
Less Annoying CRM costs $15 per user per month on one plan with every feature included, plus sales tax where it applies. One user pays $180 a year, three pay $540 and five pay $900. There is no annual or volume discount, and the free trial runs 30 days with no credit card required.
Less Annoying CRM Price Per User, Monthly and Yearly
Less Annoying CRM sells one plan at $15 per user per month. Nothing sits above it or below it, so the only number that changes your bill is how many people log in.
| Team size | Per month | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 user | $15 | $180 |
| 3 users | $45 | $540 |
| 5 users | $75 | $900 |
| 10 users | $150 | $1,800 |
Paying a year ahead does not lower the price. The company says plainly that it does not offer discounts, and every customer gets the same rate whether they have one user or many.
Two small things show up on the bill that the headline number leaves out. Sales tax is added where your state or country taxes software, and the charge comes from Paddle, the company that processes Less Annoying CRM’s payments, so Paddle’s name appears on your billing emails too.
Adding someone halfway through a month does not mean paying a whole month for them. The extra amount is worked out for the days left and added to your next regular bill on a monthly plan, and removing a user gives you a credit the same way.
That makes a growing team easy to budget. Say two founders start in January and hire three salespeople in July. The first half of the year costs $30 a month and the second half $75 a month, so the year comes to $630 rather than the $900 a full team of five would pay.
Here is what the $15 covers, taken from Less Annoying CRM’s pricing page and help center:
- Unlimited contacts and companies, with a suggestion to stay under 50,000 contacts and companies combined
- Unlimited pipelines and unlimited custom fields
- Tasks, groups and a calendar that syncs with Google and Outlook
- Email logging from Gmail, Outlook or any IMAP inbox
- 25 GB of file storage per user
- User permissions and mobile access
- Free phone and email support, even during the trial
- HIPAA compliance, with an agreement available for healthcare users
If you cancel, Less Annoying CRM keeps your data for a year, so you can come back without rebuilding anything. For how this price compares across the market, our breakdown of what a CRM costs prices 21 tools side by side.
Why Less Annoying CRM Has Charged $15 Since 2020
Less Annoying CRM used to cost $10 per user per month. On July 22, 2020 the price for new accounts went up to $15, the first rise in almost 11 years.
The part most pricing pages skip is what happened to existing customers. Accounts created before that date kept $10 per user for good, including users they added later, and the company said it was not a delay before a second increase. A lapsed account can be reopened at the old rate within a year of closing it.
So if a colleague tells you they pay $10, they are not wrong. They signed up before July 2020, and a new account today pays $15.
This is a pricing model worth respecting. There is no cheaper plan that hides the pipeline and no higher plan that holds back a feature, so nobody inside the app is trying to sell you the next tier. It works like a cinema ticket, where everyone pays the same price whatever they watch.
Who Less Annoying CRM’s $15 Plan Suits
Less Annoying CRM is a good product, and for a lot of small businesses $15 a user is a fair price. It suits people whose work is built on long relationships with the same contacts.
Think of a business where the same clients come back year after year and most of the work is calls, meetings and email. For them, a contact page with the calendar, logged email and notes in one place is the whole job.
The free phone support matters here too. Plenty of small business owners would rather talk to a person than read a help article, and Less Annoying CRM gives that to every customer at no extra cost.
If that sounds like your week, the 30-day trial is long enough to see whether your team keeps using it.
What the $15 Does Not Buy a Team That Sells Deals
The record at the centre of Less Annoying CRM is a contact or a company, and a pipeline is something you attach to that person. We compare that design in full in Fluid CRM vs Less Annoying CRM, so here is what it means for the money.
Automations that start from a status or a form
Less Annoying CRM’s automations start when a contact enters a pipeline status or when someone fills in a form. They can then assign the contact to a user, add a note, add a task, add the contact to a group or attach another pipeline.
That covers the routine admin around a contact well. Our guide to CRM automation covers which rules a small team needs first.
AI assistants through someone else’s connector
Less Annoying CRM does not publish its own MCP server. MCP, short for Model Context Protocol, is the standard that lets Claude or ChatGPT read and update another app.
You can still connect Less Annoying CRM to an AI assistant through a third-party tool such as Zapier’s MCP connector. That adds another account to set up and another company between your CRM and your assistant.
What the seat price never decided
Fenixtal, my old outbound agency, built 12M€+ in pipeline for 50+ B2B clients. In my experience there, the seat price never decided whether a lead survived. What decided it was whether someone opened the CRM and wrote down the next step, so pay for the one your team will actually open.
What 1 and 3 Seats Cost on Fluid CRM Instead
Fluid CRM also sells one plan with every feature in it. You choose only how to pay, $16 per seat per month or $144 per seat per year.
| Plan | 1 seat for a year | 3 seats for a year |
|---|---|---|
| Less Annoying CRM, $15 per user per month | $180 | $540 |
| Fluid CRM, $16 per seat per month | $192 | $576 |
| Fluid CRM, $144 per seat per year | $144 | $432 |
A solo seller saves $36 a year on Fluid CRM’s annual plan and pays $12 more on its monthly one. Those amounts are smaller than one lost proposal, so let the way your team sells make the choice.
Can you name the next step on every open proposal right now without opening a tab? If not, the record your CRM is built around matters more than a dollar a seat.
The difference is what the record is. In Fluid CRM the deal sits at the centre, with its value, stage and next step on the card, and the contact and company hang off it.
Hanna-Maria Ojala, CEO of the Finnish sales coaching business Menestyvä Myynti, moved over from Pipedrive. “It’s simple to see where each deal stands and what needs to happen next,” she wrote.
The same plan includes unlimited pipelines, 8 in-app automations that act on deals, reminders, lead capture forms, an API with webhooks and an MCP connection we built ourselves. That connection lets Claude or ChatGPT add a deal or log a call while nobody has the app open, which our Claude CRM guide shows step by step.
Yannick, a verified Fluid CRM customer, had searched a long time for “something that is not overly complicated… and can be implemented quickly,” and wrote that Fluid CRM was exactly what the search turned up.
Two limits matter for this choice. Fluid CRM has no calendar, so meetings stay in Google or Outlook. Email is logged when you add a BCC address, not pulled in from your inbox on its own.
If you want more options than these two, our list of Less Annoying CRM alternatives covers seven.
