2 competitors which I think are getting things right on the UI front are Attio [1] and Folk [2]. It's not as powerful as Salesforce and the data structure is very loose, but they have done a good job with the user-experience. They are not open source though.

We’re building Attio (https://attio.com) for exactly this use case! We have a really modular data structure and a flexible API that feels a lot like Airtable or Notion with all the CRM features you’d expect. I’d love to learn more about your use case as I really believe the idea of a “modular, developer focused” CRM is long overdue! Disclaimer: I am the CTO :). - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
