Worth it for your operation?

Pros

  • Official WhatsApp integration documented on every plan, free to install
  • Pipeline CRM and messenger inbox in one product — not a thin channel add-on
  • Public USD seat pricing from $25/user/mo with a 14-day trial
  • Templates, WhatsApp Flows, catalogs, and multi-number limits published by plan

Watch-outs

  • Seat-based pricing grows with team size faster than flat BSP starter plans
  • Omnichannel/AI breadth is narrower than Respond.io for pure support volume
  • Number limits on Base/Advanced can force plan upgrades for multi-brand teams
  • Less “enterprise Digital Engagement” governance than Salesforce

Score by criterion

The dark mark on each bar is the average of the 8 CRMs in this ranking. Criteria with higher weight pull the overall score more.

Shared inbox & routingweight 1.4×
9.0

WhatsApp opens inside the product on the contact or deal, with assignment so more than one person can work the same number.

Official WhatsApp APIweight 1.3×
9.0

Connects to the WhatsApp Business Platform (Cloud API / BSP). QR-code “WEB” sessions and unofficial bridges do not count.

Campaigns & templatesweight 1.1×
8.4

Broadcasts or blasts plus Meta-approved message templates for re-engagement outside the 24-hour window.

Conversation CRM depthweight 1.3×
9.1

Deal or contact history, multi-agent queues, chatbots, and CTWA-style lead capture — how far WhatsApp is first-class in the product.

Price and transparencyweight 0.9×
8.0

Public plan in USD (or clear EUR/USD), trial, and whether Meta message fees are called out separately. Opaque enterprise quotes lower the score.

Learning curveweight 0.8×

Editorial analysis

Kommo in detail

Kommo is the CRM a WhatsApp-heavy sales team buys when they want deals and DMs in one login. Official API, templates, and a real pipeline — not a marketplace bridge.

Who it is for

SMB and mid-market sales orgs that close in WhatsApp (and Instagram) and want the CRM to be the inbox. Pure support desks with email + voice may prefer Trengo or Salesforce Service.

What drives the score

Inbox, API, and conversation CRM depth are strong. Price scores well because Base publishes $25/user. Campaigns are solid but not the sole reason to buy versus a broadcast-first BSP.

How we read the sources

Based on kommo.com, the public tariff page (Base/Advanced/Pro USD), and the WhatsApp pricing calculator (Meta fees called out separately).

Frequently asked questions

Does every Kommo plan include WhatsApp?

Kommo documents the WhatsApp Business integration as available on all plans and free to install. You still need a Meta WhatsApp Business Account and you pay Meta’s template/message rates separately.

Is Kommo the same as amoCRM?

Yes — Kommo is the international brand of the product formerly known as amoCRM. Same messenger-first CRM lineage, English product and USD pricing for this market.
