NocoBase
NocoBase is an AI-driven, open-source no-code/low-code platform that teams use to build custom CRM systems and other business applications on their own servers, with no per-user or per-application pricing. It is positioned as a platform for building CRM rather than a purpose-built CRM product.

Our verdict
Last verified Jun 12, 2026
Highly extensible platform with 22.7k GitHub stars and broad AI/automation integrations, but not a purpose-built CRM — requires significant configuration effort; lifetime commercial licensing model is unusual but buyer-friendly.
