Own your data.

Groundhogg is 100% self-hosted. Your data lives on your servers and stays there. Neither Groundhogg nor any other service has access to your customers’ personal information.

  • Your contacts live in your own WordPress database
  • Nobody can switch off your account or hold your list hostage
  • Import and export your data whenever you like
Why self-host?

Bring your own email sender.

Take control of your email deliverability with your own SMTP service. Groundhogg works with the most popular ones, and you can even use several at the same time.

Why does SMTP matter?

Yes, we’re open-source too.

All of Groundhogg’s code is GPL. Even in the unlikely event our company went away, your CRM would keep working.

Why does open-source matter?

Trusted by serious businesses.

You’re not the only one fed up with SaaS CRM.
