LOT App vs Close: comparing two CRMs with a dialer

Both tools are built around calling. They differ in where the phone numbers come from and in how the price is counted.

Short answer

Both are CRMs built around calling. Choose the LOT App if you want the company list built for you and one price for a team of up to fifteen. Choose Close if you need a predictive dialer or SMS in the same tool and per-user pricing with call usage billed on top suits you.

Where the two actually differ

Close and the LOT App agree on the main point: a rep who sells by phone should dial from the CRM, and every call should log itself. The difference is what happens before the first call. Close expects you to bring the contacts. The LOT App builds the list from open map catalogues (Overture, OpenStreetMap), which matters most to teams that cold-call companies rather than work through inbound leads.

When the LOT App fits better

  • Your reps build call lists by hand today, and you want the list built in the same tool that dials it.
  • You call Polish companies and want data from the GUS REGON register next to the phone number.
  • You want the power dialer without moving to a higher plan, and a price that does not grow with each hire up to fifteen people.

When Close fits better

  • You need a predictive dialer, which dials several numbers at once and connects whoever answers.
  • SMS should live in the same tool as calls and email.
  • Your team works in English-speaking markets and your contacts already come from inbound or a data provider.

The figures about Close come from its pricing page, checked on the date shown at the top. The page shows two prices per plan without labelling them and says annual plans are discounted, so we read the lower one as the annual rate. Check it before you buy.

The LOT App builds the call list itself, from open map catalogues (Overture, OpenStreetMap), so the team starts the day with numbers ready to dial. Close lists no company database on its pricing page; it enriches the records you bring, so the contacts have to come from you first.
