Top Five, Baby! Nutshell Earns Highest-Ever Ranking on Capterra’s Top 20 CRM Software Report
-
Last updated on: April 24, 2026
Leading software review platform Capterra recently published its Top 20 CRM Software report for 2019, and we’re thrilled to announce that Nutshell has placed at #5!
According to Capterra, Nutshell “earned placement in this elite report based on the overall rating from your software user reviews and search volume within your software category on Capterra.”
With literally thousands of software products offering some level of CRM functionality, hitting the top five in this incredibly competitive category is a tremendous honor.
Nutshell’s #5 ranking placed us ahead of such well-known heavy hitters as HubSpot CRM (#6), Microsoft Dynamics 365 (#8), Insightly (#10), Freshsales (#11), Zendesk Sell (#12), Less Annoying CRM (#13), Salesforce Sales Cloud (#17), and SugarCRM (#18).

Being named as one of the top 5 CRMs according to Capterra software reviewers is especially gratifying because Nutshell didn’t even appear on the 2018 Top 20 CRM Software report.
Before 2019, Capterra’s Top 20 lists were influenced by a number of factors in addition to reviews, including size of customer base and social engagement. Now, Capterra’s ranking methodology scores vendors on just two metrics: reviews and search volume.
All of which is to say: Thanks to everyone who had kind words to say about Nutshell on Capterra, and thanks for looking us up online! To read what real CRM users are saying about us (and leave some thoughts of your own), visit Nutshell’s review page on Capterra.
