As someone who evaluates CRMs pretty much for a living I'm sad to report there's nothing new here. Great UI - Kudos. But, this is way more expensive than Pipedrive whose UI is arguably as user friendly. I think you've got potential here... but you're priced same as close.io with far fewer features and a similar UI.

Hey! Thanks for your feedback! I just want to mention that Wobaka is $49 for all of your team, not per user. So if you're more than 3 users it's not more expensive :).
Despite the advice to add enterprise pricing — advice which I’ve given in the past too — I think you’ve done exactly the right thing with your pricing. Pricing is a form a bike shedding. You can spend an infinite amount of time worrying about it, and there is no one right answer. But one thing that a fixed price of $49/mo regardless of team size will do for you is put a hard cap on how much you will work on closing a…

I tried Pipedrive but if you want to sync contacts with Google Contacts, they insist on accessing your mails as well. No way to reduce OAuth scope. To make matters worse, they use a third party API to do this, so you trust not just one, but two random companies with access to your email. This is an issue since email is not just used for marketing (think password reset tokens and so on). Their support has been useless…

Would you be willing to briefly elaborate?
Too many items to elaborate over HN. Here's three easy issues: 1. Estonia company creates some issues for corporate clients. 2. Form fields jammed together & tiny & harder for older users. 3. Not much going on in terms of automation, A.I. or triggers based on contact activity. Again, much to say, but those are few.

You evaluate CRMs for a living? If I may, an off-topic question. I am completely unsatisfied with any addressbook software and have been looking at a ton of CRMs for personal use. I would prefer something open source, but anything self-hosted would do. The one feature that most CRMs are missing is CardDav and CalDav syncing. I need my contacts on my phone. Do you know of any opens source or otherwise self-hosted CRM…
Streak or Copper would be my go-to for this, but they sit atop Gmail and Google Calendar which doesn't give you the open open source solution you want. I'm sorry to say that I don't have a FOSS recommendation.

If a big company with 50,000 employees is your customer, you must be pretty blind or stubborn to not get the money you want.
The problem is what zaroth outlined at the start of this thread: the big company doesn't start as your customer. They start out as "Hi, we're a Fortune 500 company and we'll become your Number One Customer if you jump through these hoops...before we sign a contract!" And you start jumping. And there are more hoops. And you jump. And they have a strategy change and blow you off for six months, then come back with a di…
If they are your customer, there's no more hoops to jump through.
I don't see the problem you are describing here.

No, you're letting them start to depend on the tool which allows you to renegotiate for a good deal later
$49 for thousands of users is basically free. For a CRM, a company with a 2000 seat license should be paying well into the tens of thousands of dollars a year, if not significantly more. You don't renegotiate from $49 to $60,000...

Check out https://www.monicahq.com/ for a self-hosted CRM (personal).
I love the idea of Monica but I've had serious challenges getting it going in self-hosted land. I plan to keep trying though as the idea of a personal CRM is nearly irresistable. My most recent attempt a few weeks back (following the debian guide in the GH repo + a few fixes on Stack Exchange) resulted in a page that lets you 'register' your first account but for some reason does not load any page. It just appears to…
