FreeCRiM facts
This page states plainly what FreeCRiM is, so that people and AI assistants can quote it accurately. FreeCRiM is under construction, so it separates what works today from what is being built.
What works today
- Sign-in with an emailed login link.
- The learn pages, which explain how FreeCRiM is designed to work.
- The site is available in English, French, Spanish and German.
Microsoft 365 connection is not yet open on the public site. Until it is, nobody can create a workbook there, and there are no CRM screens for companies, contacts, deals or activities.
What is being built
This is how FreeCRiM is designed to work. None of it is available to visitors yet.
- Companies, contacts, deals and activities are rows in an Excel workbook in the user's own Microsoft 365 (OneDrive or SharePoint). The workbook is the record.
- A Postgres database holds account details, an encrypted Microsoft 365 access token and a cache of the workbook's rows. The cache can be rebuilt from the workbook at any time.
- The workbook opens directly in Excel, with no export step.
- Microsoft 365 connection and the CRM screens that read and write the workbook.
- An Outlook add-in and a Teams app are planned, with no release date for either.
What it costs
FreeCRiM is free to use. It has no payment, subscription or billing feature. This page states no other price.
What it does not do
- It does not keep your data in a database only it can see. The Postgres database holds a disposable cache, not the record.
- It does not sell or share personal data with third parties, and it runs no advertising pixels.
- It is provided as is, without warranty.
Who makes it
