Sellsy vs Lea CRM
Updated on July 28, 2026
Sellsy and Lea CRM are both French solutions for SMBs, but with different scopes: Sellsy is a broad business management suite, Lea is a dedicated, simple sales CRM that opens straight onto today's actions. Here is what Lea CRM brings on the sales side that Sellsy does not offer. Page refreshed as we ship.
In short
Lea CRM opens on your day rather than on a dashboard, turns every booking into a ready-to-work contact, deal and activity, puts AI at your disposal on your own key instead of credits you have to buy, and turns the CRM into a calling machine. Sellsy is a complete management suite; if what you want above all is a simple sales CRM focused on commercial action, Lea gets straight to the point, from €14/seat/month and with no user minimum.
What Lea CRM does on top
A dedicated sales CRM, not a suite to configure
Lea focuses on one thing: moving your deals forward. The tool stays simple, with no modules to switch on and no heavy setup, and you can start from one of the 12 industry pipeline templates. Sellsy is a broad management suite: the sales part coexists with other building blocks, which brings power but also complexity when all you want is a good sales CRM.
Your day, not a dashboard
Lea opens on the list of what you have to do today: calls, follow-ups, meetings, deals to close, ranked by priority. You start in the action rather than in front of metrics to interpret. Sellsy opens on a management dashboard, designed for oversight more than for today's selling.
Scheduling that fills the CRM on its own
Lea Schedule (the Calendly equivalent) is included from the entry plan, with unlimited meeting types: every booking automatically creates the contact, the deal and the activity, with a briefing before the meeting. The pipeline fills itself with no re-keying. Sellsy offers no built-in public booking page that generates the contact, the deal and the activity this way.
AI on your own key, no credits to buy
You plug in your own Claude or OpenAI key and pay the provider at cost: Lea does not resell credits and takes no margin. Email and quote drafting, a briefing before every call, voice dictation after a meeting, call scoring.
A real calling machine
A call queue ranked by heat, overdue time, value and dormancy, an AI briefing per deal, one-gesture call outcomes that automatically reschedule the follow-up, and a shared calling pool where the deal is assigned to whoever calls first. Sellsy does not provide this outbound calling loop.
Calls recorded, transcribed and scored
Connect Aircall, Ringover or Onoff: the call log fills itself in, the record pops on ring, the recording is replayable inside the deal, and both the transcript and the call scoring are produced by your own AI key. Click-to-call itself is open on every plan.
Follow-up sequences that stop by themselves
Schedule your follow-ups after a call: they stop on their own as soon as the prospect replies, unsubscribes or books a meeting, with a compliant unsubscribe link. Included in the Pro plan at €29/seat/month.
LinkedIn, Sales Navigator, Malt and WhatsApp Web in one click
Lea's browser extension turns a LinkedIn profile, a WhatsApp Web conversation, a Malt message or a Gmail email into a deal, with a link back to the source. It is included on every plan, including the free one.
The CRM is driven from Claude
Lea exposes an official MCP server: you connect your account to Claude in one click and ask, in plain language, to create a deal, find a contact or prepare your day. It is included on every plan.
Floor Mode, your team's TV screen
A full-screen board for the sales floor: goal of the day, meeting rate, live streaks, records, podium and celebration sounds. Native to the CRM, with no third-party gamification tool.
Billed per real seat, with no user minimum
Lea starts at €14/seat/month billed annually, for a single seat if you work alone. Sellsy's Prospecting & Sales offering enforces a 2-user minimum at €29/user/month.
