The short answer

  • Copper fits a team that sells from Gmail. Copper’s pricing lists Basic at $23, Professional at $59 and Business at $99 per seat per month when paid annually, or $29, $69 and $134 on monthly billing.
  • Calling comes through an integration: Copper’s RingCentral guide supports calls in the web app on Professional or Business. A team that sells by phone should compare that route with Close, where calling is built into every plan.
  • Contact limits set the plan: Copper’s pricing allows 2,500 contacts on Basic, 15,000 on Professional and unlimited on Business.

Plans and what caps them

Copper’s pricing prices Basic at $29 per seat per month on monthly billing or $23 paid annually, Professional at $69 or $59, and Business at $134 or $99. Basic includes task automation, pipelines and contact enrichment with a 2,500-contact limit; Professional raises the limit to 15,000 and adds workflow automation; Business is unlimited and adds email series.

Copper’s automation guide lets Professional customers send a single automated email and Business customers up to 7, with a company limit of 900 automated emails a day, sent only through Gmail. Copper advises against using it for cold outbound.

Built around Gmail

Copper’s Gmail guide activates Gmail synchronization on a Gmail signup, and Outlook users associate emails by BCC. Copper’s bulk email guide sends bulk email from within Copper through that sync, and Copper’s mobile guide lets the Android app log calls or texts to contacts automatically.

Calling through RingCentral

Copper’s RingCentral guide supports calls in the Copper web app with notes during the call, and requires an active Professional or Business subscription with admin access. That is a workable route for occasional calls. For a team whose day is calls, the Close guide describes a dialer in the CRM instead.

Permissions, reports and exports

Copper’s permissions guide offers Me Only and Record Owner Only visibility on all plans and team visibility on Professional and Business. Copper’s reports guide gives admins and account owners Reports access by default, with view or edit access granted to others.

Copper’s export guide offers whole-record exports for people, companies, opportunities, projects, tasks and leads, emails a download link, and directs users to support for a one-time activity export. Copper’s migration guide starts from an export of the previous system split into companies, people, opportunities and leads.
