Comparison
A Ukrainian unified workspace for SMB: CRM, tasks, chats, org structure, and AI. A Bitrix24 alternative for most SMB scenarios. Architectural implementation from 3 weeks.

Uspacy

VS
An all-in-one CRM + tasks + chats + websites suite of Russian origin, under Ukrainian state sanctions until 2033. WDP does no new implementations — only migrations from Bitrix24 and pre-exit audits.

Bitrix24

Uspacy is a Ukrainian unified workspace for teams of 5–200 and the closest legal replacement for Bitrix24, which is under NSDC sanctions in Ukraine until 2033. We compare honestly, but the recommendation is unambiguous: migrate Bitrix24 → Uspacy.

In short

Uspacy vs Bitrix24
in a nutshell

In short
  1. Bitrix24 is a product of Russian origin under NSDC sanctions (Decree No. 227/2023) until 2033; as of 01.06.2023 it officially ceased operating in Ukraine, so for a new project it is not an option but a compliance blocker.
  2. Uspacy is a Ukrainian unified workspace (CRM + tasks + chats + org structure) on AWS and Google Cloud, with GDPR compliance; the closest legal replacement for Bitrix24 in most scenarios for teams of 5–200.
  3. On raw module breadth Bitrix24 is objectively deeper (BP Designer, website builder, full HR, ~600 apps), but a business typically uses that functionality at roughly 10%.
  4. Uspacy pricing is per-seat and predictable at the selection stage; in Bitrix24 the final invoice depends on modules, user packs, and marketplace subscriptions.
  5. The migration direction is always Bitrix24 → Uspacy: native import moves 7 entities, but internal chats, task comments, and BP Designer processes (.bpt) are rebuilt by hand.
Features

Head-to-head

A detailed capability breakdown. The winner depends on your priorities.

Criterion Uspacy Bitrix24
Jurisdiction and compliance
Advantage
A Ukrainian product outside any sanctions perimeter: hosting on AWS and Google Cloud, triple backups, GDPR compliance, local support in Ukrainian.
Russian origin (1C-Bitrix, 1998), NSDC sanctions under Decree No. 227/2023 until 2033; as of 01.06.2023 bitrix24.ua ceased operating in Ukraine. The Alaio rebrand does not change who builds it.
Depth of the all-in-one suite CRM + tasks + chats + activity feed + the "Company and people" module (org structure, profiles, onboarding). No website builder, no full HR, and no heavy business-process automation (BPM).
Advantage
The broadest module set on the market: CRM, tasks and projects, BP Designer, video calls, website and store builder, full HR, booking, online documents — in 18 languages, ~600 apps in the marketplace.
Business processes and automation Automation built on conditional actions (trigger → condition → action): ~5 conditional actions on Standard, unlimited on Professional. Complex multi-step logic is offloaded to Make or n8n.
Advantage
BP Designer — a full-fledged multi-step process engine, deeper than the automation in most CRMs; in autumn 2025 a no-code Automation Studio was added, with drag-and-drop and AI logic.
Pricing model and budget predictability
Advantage
Three transparent plans with per-seat billing and no caps on users, roles, automations, pipelines, or Smart objects. The final invoice is known at the selection stage, with no module-by-module maze.
Five plans, user packs, separate marketplace subscriptions, an on-premise edition — module-by-module pricing where the real cost "creeps." On Free there is no API and no automations.
Ukrainian integration ecosystem
Advantage
A marketplace tailored to the UA market with official, live connectors: Ringostat, Binotel, Phonet, UniTalk, native Nova Poshta, Monobank, Checkbox, Vchasno.Kasa, Finmap, SendPulse, eSputnik, Prom, Rozetka.
A marketplace of ~600 apps, but Ukrainian services have been officially unsupported since 01.06.2023; integrations with Ringostat and Nova Poshta survive on legacy instances outside official support.
AI capabilities (2025–2026) Native AI since 2025: call transcription and summaries inside the CRM card, generated follow-up emails, task creation from a chat or email, summaries of comment threads. Available on Standard and Professional.
Advantage
CoPilot/Intelligence — the most mature AI capabilities of the pair: speech analytics and sales-script scoring, auto-filled fields from conversations, AI agents, MCP support, voice task creation, AI inside Flows.
API and data export A documented REST API (uspacy.readme.io): versioned endpoints (auth-v1, crm-v1, tasks-v1), Bearer/OAuth, inbound and outbound webhooks (instant notifications between systems), OpenAPI + llms.txt. A modern, open API. A mature REST API: batch up to 50 calls in a single request (~2,500 records via list methods), leaky-bucket limits (smooth request-rate throttling), HTTP 503 on overflow. The API is unavailable on Free — export requires reactivating a commercial plan.
Onboarding and ease of administration
Advantage
A modern UI, a single communication hub (feed, chats, tasks), Smart objects with no code; a low barrier to entry for an SMB team without a dedicated CRM administrator.
An overloaded interface and a high customization ceiling (up to 1,016 fields per entity) translate into complex administration; the barrier to entry for a team is high.
Verdict

Which to choose

Our experience implementing both systems comes down to two simple rules.

Uspacy
Choose Uspacy if you need a unified workspace (CRM + tasks + chats + org structure) for a team of 5–200 and you are leaving Bitrix24 for a legal Ukrainian product without losing most of the functionality. It is especially apt for chains and franchises with centralized management, for teams with several departments (sales, ops, service), and where local support, GDPR, native Nova Poshta / Ringostat / Monobank, and transparent per-seat pricing matter. If you only need a sales pipeline, look at Pipedrive; for e-commerce, KeyCRM.
Bitrix24
There is no objective reason to choose Bitrix24 for a new project in the Ukrainian jurisdiction: it is a product of Russian origin under NSDC sanctions until 2033, it officially ceased operating in Ukraine as of 01.06.2023, and the Alaio rebrand does not change who builds it. If you are already on Bitrix24, the only correct scenario is a planned exit: a configuration audit, data triage, and a migration architecture to a legal system. The depth of BP Designer and the AI capabilities are real, but they do not outweigh the compliance risk.

This is not a comparison of equals — it is an exit plan

Formally, Uspacy and Bitrix24 play in the same category: a unified workspace where CRM, tasks, chats, and org structure live in a single window. But for a business in Ukraine this is not a symmetric choice. Bitrix24 grew out of the Russian 1C-Bitrix and is under NSDC sanctions by Decree No. 227/2023 until 2033; as of June 1, 2023, the bitrix24.ua portal officially ceased operating in the country, and the rebrand to Alaio (Cyprus/USA) does not change who builds it. That is why we do not implement Bitrix24 — we migrate off it. Everything that follows is an honest comparison of technical capabilities, but the recommendation is unambiguous.

If you set the jurisdiction aside, Bitrix24 is objectively broader: BP Designer as a full-fledged multi-step process engine, a website and store builder, full HR, and the most mature AI capabilities of the pair, with speech analytics, agents, and MCP support. These are real advantages, and we do not downplay them. The problem lies elsewhere: the overwhelming majority of teams use that heavy functionality at roughly 10%, and the rest turns into needless administration overhead — up to 1,016 fields per entity, an overloaded interface, and processes locked in the .bpt format that only another Bitrix24 can read. Depth that goes unused is not an asset but a debt.

Uspacy is deliberately narrower and more modern. Automation runs on conditional actions rather than complex multi-step chains, so complex logic is offloaded to Make or n8n; in return, the team gets a low barrier to entry without a dedicated CRM administrator, transparent per-seat pricing with no module-by-module maze, and official, live integrations for Ukrainian operational processes — telephony, native Nova Poshta, Monobank, and fiscalization — which Bitrix24 has officially no longer supported since 2023. For SMBs and chains of 5–200 people, this means the solution works for the business, not the other way around.

Technically, migration always goes one way — Bitrix24 → Uspacy. Native import via a webhook moves seven entities (users, tasks, org structure, CRM, the activity feed, workgroups, and the drive), but internal chats, task comments, and BP Designer processes have to be rebuilt natively. That is why we start not with an “import” button but with an audit: active deals and those closed within the last 1-2 years move into the new system, while the older archive goes to cold storage. On the Bitrix24 Free plan the REST API is unavailable, so the plan budgets for a temporary reactivation of a commercial subscription for the duration of the export. The decision to exit is made by the owner or COO, but the transfer architecture is designed by an analyst — this is exactly where it is decided what, out of years of accumulation, will actually move and what will stay in the past along with the portal.
