CRM COMPARISON

Limnn vs Salesforce

Salesforce is the most widely known enterprise CRM. Sales, service, marketing and other capabilities are sold as separate clouds and editions, with a very large partner and app ecosystem for customisation. Limnn is one AI-native platform where sales, support, people, projects and team chat share one data graph, one login and one bill. Sales CPQ and a help desk are modules of the same app rather than separate products.

From $10.67 per seat / month (Core, monthly billing). See pricing

THE HONEST ANSWER

Which one should you choose?

Choose Limnn if…

  • You want CRM, help desk, HR and team chat in one product instead of separate clouds and integrations.
  • You'd rather configure than custom-develop, and want AI that can act across modules on the same data.
  • You want predictable per-seat pricing with a full-suite option and a 30-day free trial.

Choose Salesforce if…

  • You are a large enterprise with complex, heavily customised processes and an in-house Salesforce admin team.
  • You depend on specific AppExchange apps or a Salesforce consulting partner.
  • You need a vendor with a long enterprise track record and broad industry-specific clouds.
SWITCHING

Moving from Salesforce to Limnn

  1. 01Export accounts, contacts, deals and activities from Salesforce as CSV (most CRMs offer a full data export for admins).
  2. 02Recreate your pipelines, stages and custom fields in Limnn Settings, then import with the CSV importer — it maps columns to fields and flags duplicates.
  3. 03Rebuild key automations in Flows and your quote templates in CPQ; invite the team and run both systems side by side for a short overlap.
  4. 04Prefer a hand-off? Limnn Experts can scope a fixed-price migration, including data mapping and validation in a staging workspace.
