Alternative to Bitrix24: CRM Priced per User or per Company? (2026)

Bitrix24 charges for the whole company, most alternatives per user. At how many people Firmao, HubSpot, Livespace, Pipedrive, RAYNET and Zoho CRM cost more, and what they offer in return. As of October 24, 2026.

At a glance

  • Bitrix24 charges for the whole company: Standard for 50 people costs 399 PLN and Professional for 100 people 799 PLN per month with annual billing, i.e. 4,788 PLN and 9,588 PLN a year. According to the vendor, this works out at about 8 PLN per person per month.
  • A CRM priced per user exceeds the annual cost of Bitrix24 Professional at 3-6 people on plans with automations (HubSpot Professional, Pipedrive Growth, Firmao Enterprise, Livespace Automation, RAYNET Professional) and at 13 people on Zoho CRM Standard.
  • Counting the license alone, with a larger team the price rarely argues for switching. The scope can be an argument: a system focused on sales only, automations on a cheaper plan (in Bitrix24, sales automation starts with the Professional plan), invoicing through KSeF (Poland’s national e-invoicing system) inside the CRM, or a process that no off-the-shelf system will handle.
  • Free plans are offered by Bitrix24 (Free for 1-2 people), HubSpot (Free for up to 2 people) and Zoho CRM (Free for 3 people).

UNSEEN: custom CRM with no per-user fees

Like Bitrix24, a custom CRM does not raise its price with every new person on the team, but instead of ready-made modules it has only what your process uses. If Bitrix24 requires workarounds or integrations that cannot be done through configuration, in a free consultation we will compare both options using your own figures. If it turns out that Bitrix24 is enough, we will tell you so.

  • Monitoring, backups and bug fixes are included, even without UN·Care.
  • We build integrations with ERP, KSeF, email and telephony into the same system. They are priced separately (UN·Connect from 5,900 PLN net), with no per-user fees.

How much Bitrix24 costs in 2026

Bitrix24 sells plans per organization, with a user limit in each plan (“one fixed fee for all users”). With annual billing, the vendor states savings of up to 40%. The website does not say whether the prices are net: it states that the purchase may be subject to VAT under the rules of the buyer’s country. Below are the plans from the basic line (Essentials).

Per year with annual billing: Basic 2,388 PLN, Standard 4,788 PLN, Professional 9,588 PLN, Enterprise from 19,188 PLN (250 users). Per person, the vendor states about 7.98 PLN (Standard) and 7.99 PLN (Professional) per month with annual billing.

Price per company or per user: at how many people an alternative costs more

Most alternatives charge per user, so their cost rises with every person, while Bitrix24 costs the same up to the plan limit. For each system we take the first paid plan in which the vendor lists automations, and compare it with Bitrix24 Professional, the plan in which sales automation starts. Calculation: monthly price per user × number of people × 12, annual billing, euros converted at the National Bank of Poland (NBP) average exchange rate of October 23, 2026 (4.3917 PLN).

Prices from the vendors’ price lists as of October 24, 2026 (Firmao: 12-month subscription). Pipedrive and Zoho: euros excl. VAT; HubSpot: euros, with no information about VAT on the pricing page; Livespace, Firmao and RAYNET: PLN net. Bitrix24 Standard (4,788 PLN a year, up to 50 people) does not list sales automation in its description; compared with Standard, the thresholds drop to 2-3 people (Zoho CRM Standard: 7). The amounts do not include add-ons, deployment or price changes during the contract.

Conclusion: if license cost is the main criterion, from 13 people Bitrix24 Professional has the lowest cost of the plans with automations in this comparison, and compared with most of them from as few as 3-6 people. An alternative makes sense when you pay for modules you do not use and something is missing in the CRM itself: automations on a lower plan, invoicing through KSeF, ERP integration or a process tailored to your company. In that case, calculate the total cost of ownership (TCO), not just the license.

What to check before switching from Bitrix24

  • List the modules you use outside the CRM: tasks and projects, chat, video calls, drive, HR, forms. Most of the alternatives in this comparison are sales CRMs, so some of these functions will have to move to other tools, and their cost has to be added.
  • Calculate the price for your target number of people, not today’s: with per-user pricing, every new person raises the subscription, while in Bitrix24 the cost only rises once you exceed the plan limit.
  • Do a full export: contacts, companies, deals, leads, activities and files, and keep a copy outside both systems.
  • Check integrations and API on the plan you choose: Livespace has API from the Automation plan, RAYNET from Professional, and in Firmao the API costs from 109 PLN.
  • Test on a sample of your data during the trial period (Pipedrive and Firmao: 14 days, RAYNET: 30 days) or on a free plan (HubSpot, Zoho CRM).

Methodology

We compare public license prices with annual billing, without the cost of your team’s time spent switching systems, without add-ons and without the tools you would have to buy to replace Bitrix24 modules.

Choice of systems
Off-the-shelf CRMs with a public price list, available to companies in Poland, in alphabetical order, with no scoring.
Price list versions
Prices from the price lists in the version for Poland (Pipedrive, Bitrix24, Livespace, Firmao, RAYNET) and from the price lists in euros (Zoho CRM, HubSpot), as a company in Poland sees them. In other countries, vendors may show different prices and currencies.
Choice of plans
Bitrix24: the Essentials line, with Professional as the reference point (the first plan with sales automation). Alternatives: the first paid plan in which the vendor lists automations; for HubSpot also Professional, because Starter has a 10-user limit and a promotional price.
Threshold
The smallest number of people at which the annual per-user subscription exceeds 9,588 PLN (Bitrix24 Professional with annual billing).
Currencies and VAT
Euros converted at the NBP average exchange rate of October 23, 2026 (table 207/A/NBP/2026, 4.3917 PLN). Amounts as worded by the vendor; Bitrix24 does not say whether its prices are net. The exchange rate on the day of payment may differ.

Frequently asked questions

How much does Bitrix24 cost for 50 people?

The Standard plan covers 50 users and costs 399 PLN per month with annual billing (4,788 PLN a year) or 579 PLN with monthly billing. Sales automation starts with the Professional plan: 799 PLN per month with annual billing (9,588 PLN a year) for up to 100 users.

Is there a cheaper alternative to Bitrix24?

Counting the license cost alone, for a larger team, not in this comparison: plans with automations and per-user pricing exceed the annual cost of Bitrix24 Professional at 3-6 people, and Zoho CRM Standard at 13. Small teams pay less than for Bitrix24 Professional: up to 12 people on Zoho CRM Standard, up to 10 on HubSpot Starter (promotional price) and up to 2-5 people on the other plans in the table. HubSpot and Zoho CRM also have free plans.

Which CRM instead of Bitrix24 for a small business?

For 2-3 people, the free plans: HubSpot Free (up to 2 users) and Zoho CRM Free (3 users). With a price in PLN net: RAYNET Start (69 PLN, up to 3 users) and Livespace Base (69 PLN with annual billing, up to 3 users), both without automations. Bitrix24 Basic costs 199 PLN per month for a company of up to 5 people.

Why is Bitrix24 so cheap for a large team?

Because the price applies to the whole organization with a user limit, not to a seat. The vendor states that with 50 people on Standard and 100 on Professional, it works out at about 8 PLN per person per month with annual billing. With fewer people, the cost per person is correspondingly higher.

When should you choose a custom CRM instead of Bitrix24?

When your sales or service process requires workarounds that cannot be done through configuration, or integrations with ERP, KSeF or telephony outside the add-on catalog. Building a custom CRM at UNSEEN costs from 49,000 PLN net as a one-time fee, with no per-user fees, plus the server and any further development, so on license cost alone Bitrix24 works out cheaper. A 3-year comparison is in the article Off-the-shelf or custom CRM.
