Which plan to pickStart 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.Try Starter free for 14 days and connect your real inbox and calendar, because the self-filling records are the whole point. Only move to Pro once you need sequences and more than 3 people. Extra capture seats cost $200 a month each, billed yearly.
