Likelihood to Recommend As I am highly satisfied with the working of Apteama CRM I would like to recommend it to everyone with all sizes of the firm as it is ideal for firms from small to large ones.

Read full review Pros Simple: it isn't too convoluted with too many features Flexible: user-defined fields are able to be added to every segment of both opportunities and incidents Dynamic: Integrates with the existing ERP system to pass customer and vendor data back and forth Read full review The biggest advantage of the Sparkcentral platform is its "inbox zero" philosophy. With this, our customer support requests are queued within the app, and agents need to work down the queue to keep it empty. The app is designed from the ground up for customer care - instead of taking a generic social platform, and sprinkling in some customer care tools. Everything about Sparkcental is designed for helping our customers. Sparkcentral allows us to do much better CRM. We can make customer notes, see recent interactions, determine who helped the customer (and when). Read full review Cons I was expecting some more flexibility in it. Its customer support is highly non-vigilant and should learn how to work responsibly. Read full review In the beginning our team had the option to see what another user was typing as they responded to a post. With the latest update, this was taken away. That feature was key for us to shadow agents remotely who are still in training to provide real time feedback. Our company has a number of different brands that we manage. Having a truly unified queue would be a great addition for us! The bulk resolve should allow the option to select on the posts that you wish to resolve instead of selecting a time frame for bulk resolve. Often we find that marketing posts generate more volume in the evening. However, there are sometimes posts where the customer needs assistance during that time. So, if we were to bulk resolve for a certain number of evening hours we would potentially miss a customer's concern through that option as it is currently. But, if the option was to go through and select on all marketing posts and then bulk resolve you would ensure that you are not missing a post where a customer needs assistance. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Sparkcentral has never given us a good reason to consider any other option. Aside from all the positive points I mentioned in previous areas of this review, something else that has really impressed us is their customer service (makes sense, they're a customer service company after all!). Any time we have a question or concern, we send them an email and we get a response almost instantly.

Read full review Alternatives Considered IntuitiveERP included this CRM package with our license, so there was no extra cost to implement it.
Salesforce is expensive so we felt that we could use this package to justify our need for CRM by implementing this package, and if it was improving our sales we could say that a larger package would give the ROI we expect.
Read full review Sparkcentral does what it has offered to do, where other software made empty promises, Sparkcentral delivers. They also inform us, anytime they are undergoing maintenance or when Twitter or Facebook has an API change, where in previous cases we would have to discover this ourselves.
Read full review Return on Investment Improved interaction with customers for incident management. Greatly improved opportunity management. Lead management for marketing is improved and centralized. Read full review Customers appreciate fast responses to the things they post on social media. This tool allows that to happen. The dashboard allows us to keep up with how many are waiting in our queue so we can keep up with how busy we are during the day and manage it. Customer satisfaction has seemed to increase while using this tool. Being able to add notes with the customers address and phone info is awesome as well. Read full review ScreenShots
