Why Choose Force CRM
AI-Native, Not AI-Bolted
Force CRM was built with AI at its core. Every feature uses intelligence — deal scoring, proposal generation, risk analysis — all automated from day one.
UK Business Focus
Direct HMRC MTD integration, Companies House API, Open Banking, and UK-specific compliance features that Salesforce simply does not offer natively.
Flat-Rate Pricing
One price covers all your users. No per-seat licensing that punishes growth. A 50-person team costs the same as a 5-person team.
Part of a Complete Suite
Force CRM connects seamlessly with 6 other Force apps — Finance, Supply Chain, Projects, AI Strategy, Social Media, and Marketing — with single sign-on and unified data.
Where Salesforce Is Strong
Market Leader
Salesforce has the largest CRM ecosystem with thousands of third-party integrations and a massive partner network.
AppExchange
Over 7,000 third-party apps available for virtually any use case or industry vertical.
Enterprise Track Record
Decades of enterprise deployment experience with Fortune 500 companies and established governance tools.
Our Honest Verdict
For UK SMEs and mid-market businesses that want AI-native CRM with UK compliance built in and predictable pricing, Force CRM is the clear choice. For enterprises already embedded in the Salesforce ecosystem with complex multi-vendor requirements, Salesforce may still make sense — but the cost difference is significant.
