Which plan to pickStart on Free to check the data covers your market. Basic suits one person prospecting; Professional is worth it if you also call prospects or want AI scoring. Monthly billing costs noticeably more than the yearly prices shown.Start free: it's good enough for a founder or a team of three to run their contacts and deals. Plus suits a small team that just needs more room. Go Pro once you want call recording, sequences or proper reporting, and use the 14-day Pro trial to check it's worth it.Run the free role-plays with two or three reps first. If they keep using them, Practice covers rehearsal; only pay for Perform if you do not already have Gong or another call recorder.
