Hubspot CRM seems like a no-brainer for small startups. 100% free and you get their GMail chrome extension that allows email open and click-rate tracking.

I've heard a lot of good things too. It was discussed the The Steli and Hiten podcast. Steli thinks Hubspot went and took certain features that people like from various CRMS when they built this CRM. Seems solid.

I'm using it by default since I use their Gmail chrome extension. I think each time you send an email using the email tracking, that contact is automatically created in the CRM. So it should be able to track each email I've ever sent to each person as long as I had the tracking on.

That sounds like a really handy feature.

On the flipside, any reason why you think Hubspot CRM isn't a good tool for small startups? Is there anything that you don't like about it or that it can't do?
