17hats vs. Revenue Grid

It's great if you want to set up all of your client management so that you don't have to keep manually going through every step. It's so nice for me and my clients to have all of their forms streamlined and automated.

If you are using Office365 and it is within your budget, utilizing SmartCloud Connect as an interface with a CRM is a no-brainer. It remains hidden when Outlook opens, but with an email selected you can open it with a single click. It then allows you to associate the email and even attachments with email addresses that were included in the to, cc, or from sections of the email. It's a very intuitive user interface and saves time in email tracking.

• Prior to this I was using only Stripe for my invoices and I loved that I could see all of my recurring client payments under "subscriptions." There might be a way to do this in 17Hats, but I'm just not sure. I like to be able to quickly see all of my current clients at a glance.

• Sometimes my plugin gets disconnected from my Gmail. This needs to be fixed.

Because of the issues we have been having regarding connectivity and instability of the google extension. At some point if this is not handled we may have to find a new vendor to support our needs

It's been really great to use with my clients, but I cannot speak to setting it up as my VA handled all of that for me. I anticipate using it for a long time.

Super easy to use when it is working properly

It's chat based so you have to wait a bit to hear back from them but they have gotten quicker with their responses which I appreciate.

Sometimes they ask for way to much information. They need screenshots, full event names, date and times events were set (Which can be very difficult when you have a reoccurring meeting that was originally set years ago)

Super easy walk thorough. I believe it was a 1 hours session

Super easy to setup and maintain

Out of all the other utilities we've used, SmartCloud connect seems to be the most stable. The other interfaces sometimes caused glitchy integrations with Outlook, requiring a user to restart the add-in to restore functionality, but so far that has not been the case with SmartCloud Connect. SmartCloud connect also allows you to connect to different CRM's instead of just one, which means you can still use it when migrating between CRM's.
