Direct answer

Which CRM fits your team?

Frontline is the stronger choice for teams that need a lower public entry point, deep WhatsApp context, Max for every rep, and AI agents and Workflows across broader customer channels. Lightfield is a better fit only when premium hands-on migration and support centered on calls, meetings, email, and agentic pipeline generation are the deciding requirements.

Why teams choose Frontline

Three reasons to consider Frontline as your Lightfield alternative

The products share an AI-native premise. The deciding factors are channel mix, personal-agent scope, service model, and packaging.

Bring WhatsApp groups and Coexistence into customer memory

Frontline connects WhatsApp 1:1 conversations, groups, Coexistence, campaigns, sequences, and agents to the CRM alongside email, calls, meetings, and live chat.

Put Max beside every team member

Max supports inbox organization, meeting preparation, reminders, connected actions, and background tasks across desktop, email, WhatsApp, and Slack.

Start smaller, then scale the operating system

Frontline offers a free plan and a $30 monthly public entry point, while connecting CRM, personal AI, customer-facing agents, and Workflows in one system.
