EspoCRM: The Best CRM for small businesses in the UK?
Running a small business in the UK isn’t easy, especially when it comes to keeping up with a growing customer base. Whether you’re juggling leads, trying to stay on top of sales, or building long-term relationships, having the right tools can make all the difference. Spreadsheets and paperwork just won’t cut it anymore.
That’s where a good CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system comes in. The only problem? Most CRMs are either overpriced, overly complicated, or packed with features you’ll never use—making it harder than ever for small businesses on a budget to find an affordable, practical solution.
This is why we partnered with EspoCRM: a refreshingly simple, flexible, and budget-friendly option that actually makes sense for small businesses. Keep reading to learn why EspoCRM is becoming a leading CRM solution for small businesses in the UK.
What makes EspoCRM ideal for small UK businesses?
1. It's cost-effective!
At enable.services, we offer EspoCRM in three tiers: Lite, Standard, and Advanced. Lite starts at just £30 per user per month, making EspoCRM a significantly more affordable option for smaller businesses on a budget.
Take a closer look at our pricing tiers to see which one is the right fit for you.
2. Customisable to suit you
Unlike many CRMs that force you into rigid workflows, EspoCRM is highly customisable. You can tailor the entire system to match your exact business process. For UK businesses with unique workflows or niche services, this flexibility is a major win.
3. Lightweight and easy-to-use
EspoCRM is designed to be lightweight and efficient, meaning it loads quickly, runs smoothly, and doesn’t require a huge server to operate. That’s perfect for small teams that just want a CRM that works without performance issues.
4. Built-in sales and customer service tools
Out of the box, on our Lite tier, EspoCRM includes:
- Core CRM functionality
- Customer service tools
- Marketing tools
- Technical support
- Calendar, calls, meetings, and tasks
For many small businesses, these core features are more than enough to manage daily operations. However, our Standard and Advanced packages also include integrations, project management tools, and inventory management.
5. GDPR-Friendly for UK Compliance
For UK-based businesses, compliance with the UK GDPR is non-negotiable. Since EspoCRM can be self-hosted, you have full control over your customer data, where it’s stored, and how it’s handled. Or, if you lack the in-house infrastructure, you can utilise enable.services’ cloud-hosted services in the UK.
How UK businesses are using EspoCRM
Many small businesses across the UK are already using EspoCRM to power their operations, including:
- Retail and e-commerce teams managing customer orders and service cases
- Local service providers like electricians, legal firms, and consultants
- Nonprofits and charities organising donor and volunteer relationships
The beauty of EspoCRM is that it’s not built for just one sector — it’s built to adapt to your sector.
