Salesforce's real cost for a 10-person startup — including what they don't put on the pricing page.
Salesforce is the most powerful CRM on the planet. We respect that. Here is where they genuinely lead:
Where we win — and why small teams are choosing OpenAva:
Yes. OpenAva supports CSV import for contacts, companies, and deals. Export your Salesforce data via Data Loader or Reports, then import directly into OpenAva. Most teams migrate in under a day. We also offer free white-glove migration for Plus and Enterprise plans — we will map your fields, move your data, and recreate your pipelines.
Yes. OpenAva supports custom objects on all plans. You can create custom fields, relationships, and record types. It is not as deeply customizable as Salesforce (no Apex, no Visualforce), but for 90% of small business use cases, it covers what you need without requiring a developer.
Not as a native two-way sync yet, but you can connect OpenAva and Salesforce via our API or through Zapier/Make. Most customers fully replace Salesforce rather than run both, since OpenAva covers CRM, marketing, invoicing, and more in one platform.
Salesforce is the better choice if you have 200+ users, need deep custom development (Apex, Lightning Web Components), rely on specific AppExchange apps, require complex multi-entity reporting across business units, or need compliance certifications like FedRAMP. If you are a Fortune 500 company with a dedicated Salesforce admin team, Salesforce was built for you.
Salesforce Sales Cloud starts at $25/user/month (Starter) and goes up to $300/user/month (Unlimited). For a 10-person team on the popular Pro plan ($80/user), that is $800/month before implementation costs. OpenAva is $20/month flat with unlimited users — no per-seat charges, no module upsells, no annual contract required.
