Quoting from the CRM removed a whole handoff

Six reps, eighteen months in, and the pipeline is the most accurate it has ever been. The highest CRM adoption rate we see in our review set. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. I would recommend it to a business of our size without hesitation.

What works

Strong mobile app for people working between meetings. The mobile app works well enough for a rep between meetings. Email sync captures conversations without anyone copying anything.

What does not

Billing in dollars makes the annual budget a moving target.

Fine once we stopped trying to use everything

Fine product, and the dollar billing makes the budget conversation annoying. Strong mobile app for people working between meetings. Beyond that it is more ordinary than the marketing suggests. It sits squarely in the middle for us, useful but not something I would champion. I would shortlist it, not necessarily pick it.

What works

Activity based selling keeps the pipeline current by design. Contact and deal management are solid.

What does not

Support escalation is slow on technical issues. Reporting is limited without moving up a tier.

Quoting from the CRM removed a whole handoff

Six reps, eighteen months in, and the pipeline is the most accurate it has ever been. The highest CRM adoption rate we see in our review set. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. Two years in and nobody has suggested we look at alternatives.

What works

The highest CRM adoption rate we see in our review set. Automation handles the follow up sequence reps used to forget. The pipeline view gives an honest picture of the month.

What does not

Onboarding a new rep takes longer than it should.

Used for 6 to 12 months

The pipeline is finally accurate

We moved off a spreadsheet and the difference in forecast quality was immediate. Strong mobile app for people working between meetings. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. If you are weighing it up, do the trial with your own data and you will see it.

There are irritations, and none of them are the kind that make you look elsewhere. It is not perfect, and it is the right choice for us.

What works

New reps productive within a morning. The mobile app works well enough for a rep between meetings. Quoting from the record removed a handoff to admin.

The pipeline is finally accurate

The automation removed about four hours a week of follow up admin per rep. The highest CRM adoption rate we see in our review set. That is the part that genuinely changed how we work. Nothing has come up in the last year that I would call a real problem. Worth the migration effort, which is not something I say often.

What works

New reps productive within a morning. Reporting answers the questions the sales meeting actually asks. Automation handles the follow up sequence reps used to forget.

What does not

The features we needed sat one tier above the one we were quoted.
