Pros and cons
What Capsule does especially well — and the limits to anticipate.
Pros
- Simple interface, 9.5/10 ease-of-use rating — suited to small teams with no IT
- Generous free plan (250 contacts, 2 users) to test risk-free
- Good integrations with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Xero, and Mailchimp
Cons
- No two-way email sync on any plan, even at $72/month
- Email-only support, no live chat or phone for emergencies
- Contact enrichment and certain reports gated behind higher plans
Capsule: when it makes sense.
Good free choice to start; check if the lack of two-way email sync is a blocker for you.
Keep if
You're a small team with no dedicated IT and want a simple CRM to adopt. 250 contacts and 2 users meet your current needs (free plan)
- You use it at least once a week
- The monthly cost (€20) is small next to the time it saves you
Challenge if
You need native email sync — no Capsule plan offers it. You need phone or chat support for emergencies
- You use it less than once a month
- A simple free version or a tool already in your stack would do
