Why Travel Agencies Ditch Salesforce
Salesforce is powerful for Fortune 500 sales teams. But travel is a unique industry—and you deserve tools built for your workflow.
Travel-Native, Not Enterprise-Generic
Salesforce requires expensive consultants to build travel functionality. Collab has itineraries, commissions, and supplier tools built in from day one.
95%+ Cost Reduction
Salesforce licensing alone can cost $1,650/month for 10 users—before implementation. Collab is $79/month flat for unlimited users.
Celebration Travel Out of the Box
Building anniversary tracking and wedding coordination in Salesforce requires custom development. Collab has it built in.
Live in Hours, Not Months
Average Salesforce implementation: 6-12 months. Collab: import your clients and go live the same day.
Pricing Comparison
Salesforce per-seat licensing plus implementation costs can exceed $100k. Collab is $79/month flat.
