Likelihood to Recommend I would absolutely recommend Apptivo! We have used Apptivo for years, and we wouldn't consider another platform to keep all of our contacts together in one place. It's easy to export certain lists for certain mailings and to add/remove new contacts and move things around as needed over time. There's freedom to adding new contacts and the pricing is phenomenal
Read full review Teamgate CRM is well suited for companies that want to centralize leads, current clients, and communication history in one CRM. A scenario where team gate is appropriate is if a company wants to use custom sales pipelines and stages to track a sales lead that will transition to a deal. A scenario where team gate is NOT appropriate is for a company that doesn't need a cloud-based CRM because there don't travel a lot and will always use the same computer that you might as well have a CRM server on-site and save money.

Read full review Pros Built in support for new users. Basic crm works...just dont expect it do anything well beyond the basic. Price. Google Apps integration is better than a lot of the competition who charge and anwful lot more. They are open to and try adapt quickly based on customer feedback. Read full review Integration with SMS gateway and Mailchimp is fantastic Great looking dashboard and graphics So easy to use and customise even I could do it Read full review Cons Dashboard and interface subsections are a bit clunky re: functionality. Built-in email client isn't always a feasible option for efficiency (signatures are different, contacts don't always update accordingly). Consistency and integration between apps is not always optimal. Read full review As this is cloud-based software, we find that the servers are down at least twice a month, this is too much. The speed of page loading can be improved also it takes long to open reports if you use a big date range. There should be a way to reset another users password.

Read full review Usability Without a doubt, the best thing about Apptivo is that it has become a perfect internal and external communication platform. This platform will allow you to know who is taking care of certain tasks with clients and control all projects with your clients. With very affordable plans for your pocket, it has a free version for up to 3 users. It far surpasses quite a few CRMs in the same category. Apptivo CRM allows you to customize many details and work with it does not consume time or resources. You are faced with a very comfortable software to use, simple and well designed.
Read full review I rated this product an 8 for overall usability because Teamgate is very user-friendly and this helps the CRM meet the required use case that companies who buy it have. The feature to sign in from anywhere that has a net connection is huge For example the home page being the leads section and the fact that each lead has all the past and current communication with the potential client allows support agents, and the sales team to be on the same page I didn't give it a 10 because the slowness issue affects performance and usability.

Read full review Support Rating Apptivo is always quick to respond whenever we have had a problem over out time of using the program. The customer service reps are always very polite and professional in their responses and are very knowledgeable! I have never gone to them with a problem that they don't do everything in their power to help solve, and most times they have (abbreviating states is the only issue we weren't able to solve).
Read full review I haven't had to contact the support team as of yet but my co-worker expressed his frustration with the amount of technical product knowledge the Teamgate support team had. He said he felt he knew the product better than the Teamgate helpdesk.

Read full review Implementation Rating If you are starting a business and want a free app or nearly free app that can grow with you....then apptivo could be for you. However if you grow faster than them then you will be quickly seeking alternatives
Read full review Alternatives Considered The price was right for what we needed to use Apptivo for (the CRM and the contact management/project management models). And, we needed something basic and easy to implement so we could get up and running with little down time. The other systems we evaluated didn't seem to have the exact pricing and features/functionality we were looking for so we made the determination that Apptivo would be the best fit.
Read full review When I say we evaluated other CRMs I think that's an understatement, we tried about ten different systems and Teamgate was by far the best.
Read full review Scalability The sales team can use this product as much as the support as lead generating teams.
