Best CRM for Gmail and Google Workspace

CRMs that live inside the inbox and fill themselves in. 4 picks, ranked by editor rating.

Teams that run on Gmail and Google Calendar tend to abandon any CRM that lives in another tab. The products in this list either sit inside the Gmail interface or sync with it so deeply that contacts, emails and meetings appear in the CRM without anyone typing them.

The benefit is adoption: there is almost nothing to learn and very little to maintain. The limitation is depth, since inbox-first CRMs generally offer lighter reporting and automation than the large platforms.
