Alternatives to Octadesk

Five CRM and WhatsApp support options to assess in 2026. Compare features, subscription terms and fit for your team’s workflow.

The alternatives to Octadesk we compare on this page are CRPRO, Zenvia Customer Cloud (ex-Conversion), RD Station Conversas, Total Chat, and Umbler Talk.

  • CRPRO — for teams that sell on WhatsApp and want the conversation and the deal on the same kanban pipeline, with unlimited users from Growth up.
  • Zenvia Customer Cloud (ex-Conversion) — best for: An operation that needs several channels on one contract (WhatsApp, SMS, email, RCS and voice) and handles the whole CX cycle, from acquisition to post-sale, inside a single vendor.
  • RD Station Conversas — best for: Companies already running RD Marketing or RD CRM that want WhatsApp inside the same stack.
  • Total Chat — best for: A very small business focused purely on saving money.
  • Umbler Talk — best for: A company that supports and sells on the same WhatsApp and wants both in one tool, with a team of 3 or more agents, tolerance for a quarterly or annual cycle, and AI and a pipeline without buying an add-on.

Why people look for an alternative to Octadesk

Brazilian platform focused on omnichannel support (WhatsApp + web chat + email + Instagram). Strong on customer service, weaker on the sales pipeline.

  • ▸Focused on support (ticketing), not sales — the kanban is basic
  • ▸Entry plan at R$ 2,499/month: a high floor for a small team
  • ▸Billed per conversation (DAU) — the cost grows with volume, not with the team
  • ▸Helpdesk is a separate module, at R$ 130 per user/month

Zenvia Customer Cloud (ex-Conversion)

Brazil (Zenvia)

Customer-experience suite covering attract, convert, serve and nurture in a single panel, with a generative-AI chatbot, automatic lead routing and WhatsApp, SMS, email, RCS and voice channels. It is the product that succeeded Sirena and later Zenvia Conversion. The software plan is billed by user tier and interaction quota; the channel bundle is charged separately.

R$ 0,00/mo

Best for: An operation that needs several channels on one contract (WhatsApp, SMS, email, RCS and voice) and handles the whole CX cycle, from acquisition to post-sale, inside a single vendor.

RD Station Conversas

Brazil (RD Station / TOTVS)

Brazilian product from RD Station, integrated with the RD Marketing/CRM ecosystem and billed per user (from R$ 59.40/month/user). It makes sense if you already run the RD stack; the cost scales with every person you add.

R$ 59,40/mo

Best for: Companies already running RD Marketing or RD CRM that want WhatsApp inside the same stack.

Brazil

R$ 79,00/mo

Best for: A very small business focused purely on saving money.

5

Umbler Talk

Brazil (Umbler)

Turns the company WhatsApp into a team operation: a shared inbox on the same number, routing across people and departments, a visual CRM pipeline already on the entry plan, chatbot and AI agents, and official-API campaigns from the middle plan up. Billed per agent, with a two-agent minimum, and there is no monthly cycle — the shortest is quarterly.

R$ 124,88/mo

Best for: A company that supports and sells on the same WhatsApp and wants both in one tool, with a team of 3 or more agents, tolerance for a quarterly or annual cycle, and AI and a pipeline without buying an add-on.

When not to choose CRPRO

CRPRO is built for selling on WhatsApp. It is not the best choice when:

  • you need voice calls, RCS, Telegram or Messenger on the same contract: CRPRO is built around WhatsApp, with Instagram Direct and email;
  • you require a native iPhone app from the App Store: CRPRO runs in the browser and can be installed as an app (PWA);
  • your team only answers messages, with no sales pipeline or deal tracking: a simpler customer-service tool may be enough.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best alternative to Octadesk?▾
For teams that sell on WhatsApp and want the pipeline and the conversation in the same product, CRPRO is the alternative that brings both together, with unlimited users from Growth up. The other options on this page serve different profiles, and the "Best for" line of each one sums up who it is for.
How much does Octadesk cost?▾
The "How much Octadesk costs" table on this page lists the public Octadesk plans, with the official source and the date checked, and puts CRPRO in the same table. Competitor prices change without notice: confirm on the vendor's site before deciding.
Is CRPRO a good alternative to Octadesk?▾
Yes, for businesses that sell on WhatsApp and want every conversation tied to a deal on a kanban pipeline. Octadesk organises tickets; CRPRO organises deals. Here a new contact becomes a card on the kanban pipeline through a database trigger, with a value in reais per stage, milestones for qualified, proposal, won and lost, a history of who moved the card, and an alert when the deal passes the stage deadline — and the dashboard closes the month with won revenue, average deal size and conversion rate. The entry plan is Start. Growth, at R$ 249,90, puts 2 numbers and unlimited users; Scale, at R$ 499,90, adds the AI that qualifies the lead, moves the deal along the pipeline and runs the follow-up, with no separate add-on.
Can I switch from Octadesk to CRPRO without changing my number?▾
Yes. CRPRO connects the WhatsApp number you already use through a guided flow and imports contacts from a spreadsheet (CSV). Octadesk's history, templates and automations do not come over automatically: confirm with the vendor what can be exported before ending the contract.
How long does migrating from Octadesk to CRPRO take?▾
In CRPRO, connecting the number and importing contacts is done in the dashboard itself, with a guided flow, and fits within the 7-day free trial. The total time depends on what needs to come out of Octadesk: exporting history, templates and automations depends on the vendor.
When is it worth staying with Octadesk?▾
When your operation looks like this: Multi-channel customer service and helpdesk with a formal support flow. In that case, compare carefully before migrating.
Do CRPRO and Octadesk have a free trial?▾
CRPRO has a 7-day trial with no credit card. For Octadesk, we did not confirm a no-card trial in this comparison; check with the vendor.
