Modern Open Source CRM Tools: Stop Paying the SaaS Tax
Tired of per-seat pricing and vendor lock-in? Twenty CRM is the modern, Notion-style open source CRM built for teams who want control. Deploy it in minutes on Opsily's managed infrastructure.
The hidden cost of 'Standard' CRM tools
Most businesses start with a simple spreadsheet. Then they grow. They move to Salesforce or HubSpot because it is the safe choice. But safety has a high price. You pay per user. You pay for extra fields. You pay for API access. This is the SaaS tax.
Traditional CRM tools are booby-trapped with add-on costs. Want to sync your marketing data? That is an extra $50 a month. Want to add more than ten team members? Your bill doubles. You do not own your data: you rent it.
Why open source CRM tools are winning
Smart founders are moving back to open source. But they are not moving to the clunky tools of the 2010s. They are choosing Twenty CRM. It is the first modern alternative that feels like Notion but works like a powerhouse.
With open source CRM tools, you regain control. You can host your data in your own jurisdiction. You can build custom workflows without asking for permission. You pay for the server, not the number of people using it. It is a fundamental shift in how business software works. Twenty CRM provides the modularity you need without the technical debt of legacy systems like SuiteCRM.

Self-hosting open source CRM tools gives you freedom. Opsily handles the devops so you can focus on closing deals.

Zero Lock-in Maintenance
We update your Twenty CRM instance with one click. If you ever want to leave, export your entire database and move to your own VPS. No proprietary formats, no hurdles, no nonsense.
Built for teams who need reliability
The Real Cost: Twenty vs. SaaS Giants
A side-by-side look at what you pay and what you actually get.
Pricing based on typical Enterprise/Pro tiers. Opsily provides dedicated resources for a fixed monthly fee.
Everything You Need. No Gatekeeping.
Twenty CRM does not hide features behind higher tiers. When you host on Opsily, you get the full power of the AGPL-3.0 software.
Built for Technical Teams
Twenty CRM is the first open source CRM tool that developers actually like. It is built with TypeScript and PostgreSQL. It uses a modern frontend that feels as fast as a desktop application.
The API is the product
Most CRMs treat their API as an afterthought. Twenty treats it as the core. Everything you see in the UI is available via the GraphQL API. This makes it the perfect choice for companies that need to build custom internal tools or sync data across multiple platforms.
No more legacy bloat
Legacy open source CRM tools are often written in aging PHP versions with complex, tangled databases. Twenty is modular. You can extend it using its TypeScript app framework. This means your CRM evolves with your tech stack, not against it. By hosting on Opsily, your developers do not have to worry about Docker configs or SSL renewals: they can just build.
