Attio vs Laravel-crm
Laravel-crm (Krayin CRM) is the stronger choice for teams prioritizing source access, self-hosting, and a conventional customer/lead/sales CRM. Attio remains the better fit for teams that depend on its broader revenue platform: synchronized and enriched context, configurable objects, governed agent workflows, call intelligence, and deeper revenue reporting. The supplied evidence supports overlapping CRM fundamentals,
Decision guide
The practical reasons to choose either option, based on documented capabilities.
Choose Laravel-crm if
- Teams that must host CRM data on infrastructure they control
- PHP/Laravel teams able to customize and maintain the CRM source
- Organizations needing straightforward contact, lead, opportunity, activity, and sales management offer a reasonable fit, especially for workflows centered on conventional lead and sales management rather than Attio’s AI-
Stay with Attio if
- Automated customer-data synchronization and enrichment are required
- Revenue operations depend on branching agent workflows with permissions, run histories, pausing, and reruns
- Sales teams require native call recording, transcription, summaries, and signal extraction impossible to verify in the alternative's supplied docs as exact Attio parity, although the alternative does document generic Vo
Deployment and operations
Laravel-crm is self-hostable, built with PHP/Laravel and Vue.js, and has a documented Docker installation path. Manual deployment requires Apache or NGINX, at least 3 GB RAM, PHP 8.3+, Composer 2.5+, and MySQL 8.0.32+ for MySQL users. The README identifies the project as MIT-licensed, matching the supplied repository facts; a separate cloud-hosting page instead says AGPL, so adopters should verify the license for the exact version deployed. Self-hosting leaves server management to the operator,
