    Short verdict

    Good fit for

    Freelancers and business owners who want to maintain their network, with contacts from LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp in one place.

    Less suited to

    Teams that want to manage a sales pipeline or want data in the EU: Dex is personal and hosts in the US.

    Key facts

    • Premium from $12 per month billed annually
    • 6-day free trial, with a credit card
    • Servers and databases in the US, no DPA mentioned

    What is Dex?

    Dex is a personal CRM from Dana HQ Inc. (US), founded in 2019. It pulls your contacts from LinkedIn, Gmail, Outlook, your calendar and messaging apps such as WhatsApp and iMessage, and reminds you when it is time to talk to someone again. You work in the app on your phone, in the browser, on the desktop or through the browser extension. It is meant for your own network, not as a sales pipeline for a sales team.

    According to the security page, all servers and databases are in the US, with providers that hold SOC 2 and ISO 27001; the privacy statement mentions Google Cloud. The privacy statement, the terms and the security page do not mention a data processing agreement, and they do not mention GDPR by name either.

    Good: useful if your network is your main source of work, with LinkedIn sync already in the cheapest plan.

    Less good: prices in dollars, data in the US and no data processing agreement on the site. There is no free plan and the free trial is only 6 days.

    The Netherlands check

    Useful if you run a business in the Netherlands. "Unknown" means we could not verify it.

    • Support in Dutch: Unknown

      You would rather ask a question in Dutch, to someone who knows how things work in the Netherlands.

    • App in Dutch: Unknown

      An app in Dutch is quicker to use and avoids mistakes, also for colleagues who read less English.

    • Data in the EU: No

      Data in the EU falls under the GDPR. Outside the EU, especially in the US, other laws can give access to your data.

      More about data in the EU →

      If a tool processes personal data of your customers, the GDPR requires you to sign a data processing agreement.

    • Company in the Netherlands: No

      A Dutch company falls under Dutch law. For some businesses that matters, for example in a dispute.
