How does this compare to Salesforce or HubSpot?

Off-the-shelf CRMs charge per seat per month and lock you into their workflow. A custom CRM is a one-time build cost with no recurring license fees, and the workflow matches your process exactly.

Can you migrate data from our existing CRM?

Yes. Data migration can be scoped as an add-on phase. CSV/API exports from most major CRMs are straightforward to import.

Are there hidden costs for integrations?

No. Integration hours are included in the estimate. Third-party API costs (e.g., email providers) are billed at their published rates.
