ABOUT THE SOFTWARE

What is EspoCRM

EspoCRM is an open-source CRM platform first released in 2014. It covers accounts, contacts, leads, opportunities, calendars, email, and BPM workflows from a single PHP application licensed under AGPLv3.

The project is maintained by the EspoCRM company, founded in 2011 in Ukraine. The latest stable release is 9.3.3, shipped on 10 March 2026. EspoCRM 9.3 (February 2026) added PHP 8.5 support, OpenAPI specification generation, and IMAP folder mapping for personal accounts. Commercial extensions for the platform — Sales Pack v4.0 in February 2026, Stripe Integration in October 2025 — continue to land on a regular release cadence.

The frontend is a single-page-app over a REST API. EspoCRM publishes that the platform is used by more than 50,000 companies. The GitHub repository has roughly 2,800 stars and 800 forks, with active release tagging through 2026.

FEATURES

What EspoCRM does

EspoCRM covers the sales workflow most teams run on Salesforce, HubSpot, or Pipedrive — pipeline, accounts, calendars, email, mass mail, BPM, and reports — with field-level customisation handled in the admin UI rather than in code.

Pipeline and opportunities

Drag-and-drop Kanban board, stage probability and forecasting, products linked to opportunities with price books and quantity discounts.

Leads and web-to-lead

Embeddable web-to-lead forms, auto-assignment by territory or round-robin, formula-script lead scoring on field changes.

Calendars and meetings

Shared team calendar view. Two-way sync with Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 through the integration extensions. Zoom links auto-attached.

Mass email and campaigns

Templated outbound campaigns with bounce handling, opt-out tracking, and unsubscribe links. Mailchimp two-way sync via extension.

Accounts and contacts

Full parent-child account hierarchy, related-record side panels on every entity, custom fields and entities added through Entity Manager.

Email and shared inboxes

IMAP polling for personal and group inboxes, email-to-case routing with auto-assignment, signatures, and group folders.

Workflows and BPM

Workflow rules trigger on field changes and scheduled times. The Advanced Pack adds full BPMN 2.0 flowcharts for multi-step business processes.

Reports and dashboards

List, grid, and saved-search reports. Dashboard widgets per role. The Advanced Pack adds joint reports across linked entities.

WHY MANAGED

Why teams pick managed EspoCRM

Sales teams started looking for an alternative in August 2025, when Salesforce raised list prices by six percent and rolled out Agentforce surcharges of $125 to $550 per user per month. Self-hosting EspoCRM is one answer — until production exposes the work no one warned you about. Hense, people pick managed hosting.

No more maintenance headaches!

Finaly, I can relax and not bother with maintenance. Each of the softwares that we run on DANIAN is automated and running stable for couple months already. They even assist us with modifying the DNS records. Once we needed to modify the config of Nextcloud so that we are able to upload higher than 5GB files and they assisted us fast. I also love their documentation!

Best managed service

I previously ran Peertube, Mastodon, Mattermost and Mirotalk on other providers before switching to DANIAN. I was tired of handling the updates and backups myself. Not only that the performance is "out of this world" fast, but their tech support is amazing. Since then I added 5-10 more Apps on my account. I also love how they add more softwares on their list constantly!

I own an ecommerce startup. I knew that I need some softwares so that I add automations in my biz. I hopped on their livechat and I explained my needs. Albert recommended me couple softwares, each for a specific use-case. I signed up for the free trial and tested all. Ended up activating 6 apps. Everything is running smooth 2 months so far. I love the personalized service that I get with them!

Their support team is the best!

I had a problem with my card and the subscription could not be renewed in time. I notified their support and surprisingly, they showed much understanding. They basically left my apps run until I solved the card issue. Other providers would have deleted my data in a heartbeat. This is the way to build client-vendor trust!

Fair price and fast

4 months ago I activated n8n, Uptime kuma, Vaultwarden and Paperlessngx. So far everything is perfect. The performance of all apps is excellent. I contacted their support team couple times for using custom subdomains for the apps and they were fast and kind. I'm constantly recommending them to my network!

This gives us the freedom to focus on our clients. Sure, I can employee a dev in my team, but honestly, I prefer to not have those headaches. With DANIAN everything is running 24/7.

I signed up for the free trial in order to test Chatwoot. I needed to put a livechat widget on my website but I don't have much tech experience. I contacted their support to see if they can assist. They went above and beyond by generating the livechat widget code for me and inserting it in my website. They answered all my additional questions.

Very proactive!

Today couple of the videos on my Peertube got viral. Before I even noticed, their support have notified me via email that they proactively upgraded my app with more cpu & ram so that it continues to work without any downtime. They left the upgraded app with the added resources for couple days until the traffic stabilizes. After that I had the possiblity to stay on the same plan or keep the upgraded plan. Out of gratitude I stayed on the upgraded one.

Win-win!

I run a web design biz. After I perform the work for my clients, they constantly ask me for more software solutions. So I partnered with DANIAN. Not only I provide the requested softwares for my clients and get the increased revenue boost by delegating all to DANIAN, but also for those clients that wish to order directly from DANIAN, I send them an affiliate link. Win-win on all sides!

For the past couple months I was running many apps with DANIAN for my clients. But one of my clients wanted a software that isn't on the current list. I talked with their tech support. They accomodated me and added the software the same day. The next day, I signed for their Partners program. We will go long way together!

Financially wise decision

Why install Chatwoot on a VPS that will cost me $20-25/month. Then worry about security, updates, backups, etc. Instead, I can activate it on DANIAN the same day for half the price. Plus, less headaches for maintenance. So happy I found out about this company!

Great service!

I configure custom Matomo tracking for my clients as a monthly service. Many of my clients were asking if they can selfhost Matomo instead of using the Cloud service. My employee recommended DANIAN. Basically, I can activate as much Matomo's in any of 20+ countries the same day. Additionally the affiliate revenue is a nice bonus.

I was listing through youtube tuts on how to install Bookstack myself. Then randomly, I found their video playlist exactly for Bookstack. Got curious and went at their website. For the same price (or higher) that I would pay for just the VPS, with them I'm getting a fully managed Bookstack. It's a no-brainer decision!

USE CASES

Three teams who run EspoCRM on DANIAN

These are representative team types we set up most often. Each starts with the same flat €9 plan.

12-PERSON B2B SAAS SALES TEAM

Replacing HubSpot Starter after the seat-migration upcharge

Germany region. Custom Trial entity linked to Opportunities. Web-to-lead form on the marketing site routes inbound by territory. Stripe Integration on for billing handoffs from sales to finance. Activity stream visible on the dashboard for the daily standup.

8-PERSON DISTRIBUTION FIRM

Migrating off Salesforce Sales Cloud after the August 2025 hike

USA region. Sales Pack v4.0 pre-installed — quotes, sales orders, invoices, delivery orders. PDF templates branded to company letterhead. VoIP Integration on for click-to-call from account records. Field-level security on commission columns. Six manufacturer reps as named users with territory-restricted views.

5-PERSON CONSULTING PRACTICE

Trading per-seat CRM bills for a flat managed-hosting fee

UK region. Customer Portal published on a subdomain for client self-service on engagement status. Project Management extension binds Gantt charts to Opportunity Won events. Google Workspace Integration on for calendar two-way sync. Meeting Scheduler embedded on the marketing site for prospect bookings.

COMPARISON

Four ways to run EspoCRM

The CRM decision usually comes down to four paths. The math holds at 1, 5, and 10 seats. You pay either a per-seat tax that climbs with headcount, or a managed-hosting fee that does not.

BY INDUSTRY

EspoCRM for specific industries

A CRM that fits a wholesale distributor is not the same one that fits a recruitment desk. EspoCRM's Entity Manager and field-level security make per-industry shaping practical. The five profiles below show how DANIAN tunes the install before you log in.

Manufacturer-rep agreements drive commission tracking and territory exclusivity. ISO 9001 quality-record retention typically runs three to seven years. DANIAN pre-installs Sales Pack v4.0 — quotes, sales orders, invoices, delivery orders, return orders, suppliers, purchase orders, receipt orders, inventory locations — and enables issuance locking so issued sales orders and invoices cannot be edited after the fact.

A typical workflow: Opportunity Won fires a BPM flowchart that auto-creates a Sales Order, generates a branded PDF, triggers a Delivery Order on warehouse confirm, and issues an Invoice with a Stripe payment request. Mid-market catalogs of 5,000 to 50,000 product SKUs run within the standard base instance, with multi-warehouse stock-transfer validation enforced before sale.
Engagement-letter retention windows of six to seven years are standard. Per-client data export on request is normal operating practice. DANIAN publishes the Customer Portal on a subdomain with portal-role permissions so clients see only their own engagement history, documents, and open cases. SMTP DKIM and SPF are set on the managed MX so outbound notifications land in inbox rather than spam.

A typical workflow: an inbound portal case auto-assigns by skill tag; an SLA timer runs via scheduled workflows; an escalation fires to the partner if the breach window approaches. A working firm typically carries 500 to 5,000 active client records with a seven-year archive of engagement history, billable activity, and case files.
Local brokerage-record retention typically runs three to five years. MLS data-handling rules vary by jurisdiction. DANIAN adds custom Property and Listing entities through Entity Manager, installs the Maps Integration extension for address-based geo-search, and wires web-to-lead forms into listing-portal pages.

A typical workflow: a web-form submission creates a Lead tagged with the property of interest, auto-assigns by ZIP territory, sends a Meeting Scheduler link to the prospect, and on Opportunity Won spawns a closing-checklist Project Task list. A working brokerage desk typically carries 10,000 plus Lead records and a three to seven year closed-transaction archive linked to the originating property.
Consent tracking for marketing outreach is normal operating practice. CRM records are reviewed alongside revenue records when the business gets audited. DANIAN exposes the OpenAPI specification added in EspoCRM 9.3 for product-event ingestion, installs the Stripe Integration for billing handoffs, and applies field-level security to ARR and MRR columns so only the finance team can read them.

A typical workflow: a trial-signup webhook creates a Lead with a trial-start timestamp; scheduled workflows check at day 7, 14, and 21; the assigned AE gets pinged if no product activity is recorded. The same install supports up to ten million records with index tuning, which DANIAN runs as part of onboarding so search and filter latency stays under a second.
Per-jurisdiction candidate-data retention varies — typically one to two years on US desks, longer on enterprise-search rosters. Per-candidate erasure on request is normal operating practice. DANIAN builds custom Candidate, Position, and Placement entities via Entity Manager, adds a Documents entity for CV version tracking, and sets Roles plus Teams so each recruiter sees only their own desk.

A typical workflow: a CV upload triggers Candidate creation; a formula script tags skills automatically; the Kanban board moves the record through Sourced, Screened, Submitted, and Placed. On Placement Won, an invoice fires through Sales Pack. A busy recruitment desk typically carries 50,000 to 250,000 candidate records, with document storage scaling alongside intake.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything teams ask before signing up — answered straight, without sales speak.

Migration and onboarding

We can activate your app on your own custom domain/subdomain. Examples: mydomain.com, anyword.mydomain.com.
Or, on our randomized free subdomain. Example: 963.apps.danian.cloud

Yes. Full data export is available at any time, in a portable format you can bring to any infrastructure.
EspoCRM ships a built-in Data Import that handles CSV with field mapping, duplicate detection, and update-or-create logic. Export from Salesforce, HubSpot, or Pipedrive to CSV, map fields against EspoCRM's Account, Contact, Lead, and Opportunity entities, then run the import in dry-run mode first.

03

Billing, support, and platform

€9 covers everything we do for that app: hardware in the region you choose, daily off-site backups with one-click restore, automatic security patches and version upgrades, 24/7 monitoring, SSL and firewall, and engineering support on Email/LiveChat. There are no setup fees or hidden line items. For more info see our Pricing page.
If you decide to continue, we charge €9/app/month from day 8. If you don't, the trial ends and you can export your data. No card is required for the trial, and we never auto-charge you without explicit consent.
No. The €9/month is flat regardless of how many users log into your app. Add 5 users or 50; the price doesn't change.
24/7 Live chat and email support, both staffed by engineers who run the systems. We handle DNS configuration, SMTP setup, app integrations, performance tuning, troubleshooting, and migration help. Response time is typically under an hour. There is no tier system — every customer gets the same support.

Every customer instance is backed up daily to a separate region from the primary. We test restores. You can request a restore at any backup point within the retention window — usually 7 days for daily backups.
Your application data sits in the region you choose at provisioning — 21 datacenter locations across six continents. Account-level data (billing, account email, support ticket history) is processed centrally. Application data region is picked by you, per app.

We wait. We don't suspend the app or delete your data on the first failed charge. We email you, you fix the card on file, and we continue.
Invoices can be downloaded from the billing dashboard in PDF the day each charge succeeds. EU VAT is added where applicable and the VAT-reverse-charge regime applies for VAT-registered businesses with a valid number.

Yes. Every instance comes with a web-based terminal and a file manager in your DANIAN management dashboard. Useful for managing your data and customizations.
