startbuddi keeps every client, deal and conversation on one record, with WhatsApp, email and website chat in a shared inbox. From the same account you can send estimates, proposals and contracts for e-signature, invoice the client and give them a private portal for projects, approvals and messages.
- Contacts, deals and conversations share one client record
- Estimates, proposals and contracts with e-signature; accepted estimates become invoices
- Client portals where clients sign in with an email link, with no password or paid seat
- Free plan with the CRM and inbox
- Clients accept an estimate by replying to the email; there is no online accept button
- Client portals can be built and previewed on the free plan, but inviting clients needs a paid plan
- One built-in proposal template so far
