The same outbound motion, at a third of the entry price.
Close is the closest thing to IronVail: an outbound-first CRM built for people who sell, and it is good at it. Where we differ is what you pay to run the motion and what arrives in the box — sequences, weighted forecasting and the follow-through queue are all included at the base price here, and Close's comparable tier starts at $35 with usage billed on top.
| IronVail | Close | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Outbound AEs & small teams | Outbound AEs & small teams |
| Outbound built in | Sequences, campaigns and prepared LinkedIn/call touches, included at $12 | Strong outbound, from Essentials — $35/user/mo annual |
| Follow-through queue | Every open loop surfaced each morning | Activity and task views, no dedicated queue |
| Calling & dialer | None — we're email-outbound first | Excellent built-in calling; minutes & SMS billed as add-ons |
| Price to actually run outbound | $12 flat, no add-ons | $35-99+ per seat, plus usage credits on top |
| Forecasting | Weighted forecast + gap-to-quota | Reporting-focused |
Competitor prices and tier gating are list prices as of July 2026 and can change, so check their pricing page for current numbers. Ours is simpler: one plan, $12 through 2026 ($25 for new signups from 2027), and whatever you subscribe at is yours for life.
Choose IronVail if…
- You want the whole outbound bundle at the entry price, not two tiers up.
- You want weighted forecasting and gap-to-quota built in.
- You want a queue that chases the follow-up you opened and didn't close.
Choose Close if…
- You lean heavily on built-in calling/power-dialing today.
- You're already invested in Close's workflow and integrations.
Close is a genuinely good outbound CRM, and if you're happy there, stay — especially if the phone is the center of your motion, because theirs is better than ours and we don't ship a dialer at all. The difference is the price of the bundle and what you get without climbing a tier.
