Landing Platform vs Freshsales: CRM joined to the whole business
Freshsales is an affordable sales CRM, part of a family of Freshworks products you add as each team needs one. Landing puts sales, marketing, service, projects and HR in one system, on one record, under one bill.
Landing suits you if
- You want marketing, sales and service reading the same customer record
- You want won deals to become projects, timesheets and invoices without re-keying
- You want HR and people data in the same place as the work
Where the per-product bill adds up.
The CRM is cheap to start. The rest of the company still needs tools.
One product per team
Support and marketing are separate Freshworks products, each with its own plan, so every team you bring on adds a subscription.
Add-ons on the CRM
Branded documents are an extra per user, and the AI agent is sold in bundles of sessions beyond the included allowance.
Nothing after the deal
Projects, timesheets, profit per client and HR sit outside the Freshworks CRM, in whatever you already pay for.

Moving the CRM and the family around it.
We move you over one tool a month, against success criteria we agree with you up front. You don't pay until we prove each one is ready.
We map your stack
Show us Freshsales and any other Freshworks products you run. We agree what moves where, and what "ready" means for each, before you commit.
We move your data
We move your contacts, accounts, deals and history as part of the switch, and bring tickets across when the helpdesk is the next tool to go.
You sign it off
Billing starts only when we have shown it works against the criteria you set. Then we move the next tool, one a month.
But Freshsales is cheap to start.
It is. These are the questions teams ask when they add up the whole year.
Can our support team come across too?
Yes.
Can we start with just the CRM?
Yes. Most teams start with sales and bring in the next team when they see it working. Everything else is in the price and stays out of the way until you switch it on.
