Autocloz vs Copper
Copper is a CRM that lives inside Google Workspace, popular with Gmail-first teams.
Copper is a tidy CRM inside Gmail — but outbound at scale (calling, LinkedIn, SMS, WhatsApp, warmup) isn't its focus, and it's priced per seat. Autocloz connects Gmail and Outlook, adds all five channels natively, and gives you a free-forever CRM with unlimited users.

Frequently asked
Is Autocloz a Copper alternative?
Yes. Autocloz connects your Google (and Microsoft/SMTP) mailboxes and adds calling, LinkedIn, SMS and WhatsApp as native channels, in a free-forever CRM with unlimited users.
Does Autocloz work with Gmail?
Yes — connect any number of Gmail/Google Workspace mailboxes (plus Outlook and SMTP), with warmup and deliverability built in.
What does Copper genuinely do better?
It disappears into Gmail. Copper's whole design is that a Google-first team never leaves the inbox — records, notes and next steps surface in the Gmail sidebar, and adoption follows because there is no second app to remember. If your team's day happens entirely inside Google Workspace and outbound volume is modest, that integration depth is a genuine advantage.
Where does the cost difference actually come from?
Copper prices per seat, so cost tracks headcount, and outbound capability beyond email comes from integrations you buy separately — a dialer, a LinkedIn tool, an SMS provider. Autocloz includes unlimited users on every plan, keeps the CRM core free for 100,000 contacts, and ships the dialer, LinkedIn, SMS and WhatsApp natively, so the comparison is really one bill against several.
