Yes: Laureo has unlimited contacts on all plans, so the size of the list never decides the plan. On monday CRM, unlimited contacts and deals come only with Ultimate, which has no public price, and Basic stops at 1,000 active contacts and deals.

Standard holds 10,000 and Pro 100,000 active contacts and deals, so a list that grows past its cap means a plan change for every seat on the account.

Can one person use monday CRM?

One person can sign up, but every monday CRM plan starts from 3 users, so a solo founder pays for three seats, from $12 a seat a month billed yearly on Basic. Laureo Pro is built for one user, and Business and Ultra include a second full seat, with no seat minimum on any plan.
