Alternatives

Replacements for the tools teams most often outgrow, one tool per article. Each article sets out the alternatives worth a look, what each one costs and which teams it suits, so you can narrow the field to two or three before you trial any of them.

For project management, there are alternatives to Airtable, Asana, Basecamp, ClickUp, Jira, Notion, Slack, Smartsheet, Trello and Wrike. A good place to start is Trello alternatives, and the Project Management Software hub sets each tool’s review, head-to-head and alternatives side by side.

For CRM, the Salesforce articles compare alternatives for startups, for growing SMBs and for SaaS companies, plus open-source options; start with Salesforce alternatives for growing SMBs or the Salesforce Alternatives hub. Nonprofits weighing a move away from Bonterra have their own guide to Bonterra alternatives.

Once you have picked a replacement, the reviews in the Review category look at single tools in depth, and moving your boards, records and files across is covered under Data Migration.
