Quick Answer
Insightly is a CRM with light project management features built in, priced from roughly $29 to $99 per user per month. Crittiks includes a full CRM and a dedicated Projects suite, along with communications, finance, admin, and AI, in one flat-priced tier starting at $99.95/month for up to 8 seats.
Crittiks vs. Insightly: Which CRM Actually Fits a Growing Business?
Insightly positions itself as a CRM with project management built in — closer to Crittiks’ pitch than most standalone CRMs. The difference is depth: Insightly’s project features are lighter than a dedicated project tool, and it still doesn’t include e-signature, invoicing, or team chat.
What Insightly Actually Offers
Insightly combines CRM functionality with basic project tracking and pipeline management. Pricing typically runs from around $29/user/month to $99/user/month for its higher-tier plans.
Where Insightly Falls Short for a Small Business
Insightly’s project management is a lighter layer bolted onto its CRM, not a full-featured project tool with milestones, client approvals, and audit trails. And its pricing, at $29–99/user/month, is meaningfully higher than Crittiks’ flat rate once seat count is factored in.
How Crittiks Compares
| Crittiks | Insightly | |
|---|---|---|
| Pricing model | Flat, $99.95/mo for 8 seats | Per seat, $29–99/user/month |
| Project management depth | Full suite: milestones, approvals, audit trail | Light project tracking bolted onto CRM |
| E-signature | Built in | Not included |
| Team chat | Built in | Not included |
The Real Cost Difference
A 5-person team on Insightly’s mid-tier plan runs $145–330/month for CRM and light project tracking alone. Crittiks Pro delivers a full CRM, full project suite, and four more suites for $99.95/month flat.
Time Lost Switching Between Tools
Insightly’s lighter project layer often isn’t enough for real delivery work, pushing teams to run a second, dedicated project tool alongside it anyway — recreating the exact tool-switching problem Insightly’s bundling was meant to solve.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Insightly include project management? Yes, but it’s a lighter feature set than a dedicated project tool — many Insightly customers still run a separate project management tool for real delivery work.
Is Insightly cheaper than Crittiks? For a single user, Insightly’s entry tier can look cheaper. For a 5-person team, Crittiks’ flat $99.95/month is typically less than Insightly’s per-seat pricing at a comparable tier.
