I had built apprecia: https://apprecia.te.it; but never marketed it. It's a simple tool that lets you send/receive appreciations and store them permanently. It gained 150+ users automatically; and I still use it once in a while to appreciate people. - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago
I've seen Copper CRM work quite well for contractors (assuming that your team is using or open to using Google Workspace - if you're not using Google Workspace, I'd probably ask why not? But then recommend you to use Pipedrive if you're not willing to switch to Google Workspace). Source: over 1 year ago
