Free CRM software

A recruiting CRM is software that helps you build and nurture relationships with candidates before they apply. Think of it as a sales CRM for talent. You store profiles, tag them by skill and interest, send campaigns, and keep warm pipelines for future roles. It is built for proactive hiring, not just processing inbound applications. This page lists only permanent free tiers, not timed trials.
