Aurea CRM vs. Freshsales

I have prepared deeply detailed customised queries to prepare detailed customer reports including markets, segments, classifications and potentials to present to our company management which have been highly appreciated. So, it was well suited in that case. Since I'm traveling a lot for customer visit activities, I frequently need to use it as mobile but it's slightly nightmarish to use its unfriendly search function as well as very slow loading speeds. So, it's less appropriate in that case.

Generally speaking for small to mid sized team I really cannot recommend it enough. It has an excellent feature set, good amount of integrations, fairly customisable and backed by solid support. And the pricing is very competitive too. I feel like if your team is larger than that, you might want to look at other alternatives but for teams that size, its really perfect.

• It helps you automate your onboarding process for new leads.
• It has lots of integrations with other apps, so you can interact with other things like calendars and calls.
• It's pretty easy to set sequences so the platform automatically follows up with people for you. This is not only helpful for your sales pipeline, but also for client communication when working on a project that requires their input.

• Integration with FreshDesk is one way - we can see information from FreshDesk to FreshSales but not vice versa

Since it's providing useful features, I like to use Aurea CRM on my company PC at the office for my daily activities. However, we are in highly digital age via mobile devices particularly smart phones and we need to use softwares even in mobility which is highly weak feature of Aurea CRM and needs to be improved as soon as possible.

I would give Freshworks CRM's overall usability a 7 out of 10. Although the software has improved since we first obtained it, it still could use improvements to make functionality more intuitive and easier for the average user. It is not that challenging but there is definitely a learning curve

I'm not getting in touch directly with Aurea CRM support team member because they have trained our company's IT team members that are in direct contact with Aurea CRM support channel. As far as I know, the overall support for Aurea CRM is quite good and highly prompt in a professional way.

When you initially log in to Freshworks, you get snippets to guide you on how to set up. You have a chat option on every page so you can reach out to the support agent and get your issues resolved in real time. The agents are fast, responsive, and experienced in handling even a person who introduced CRM to the world...

I didn't select Aurea CRM myself. Since our company is global, our headquarter has selected Aurea CRM after certain years of old Oracle based Crm use. As far as I know the old one was having some weaknesses about reporting, analysing via queries, lack of marketing activies etc. That's why our top management has selected Aurea CRM for a better solution which I highly agree with it except terrible mobile use.

We selected FreshSales because we needed something cheaper and more user-friendly than Salesforce, but we're now in the process of switching to HubSpot because it gives you the best of both worlds - ease of use + scale and reliability

• positive impact for efficiency of indoor sales activies
• positive impact for better report preparation
• negative impact for mobile use

• Increased visibility of open deals, as well as encouraging 'clean' data
• Faster data updating (if Freshsales is used as our sole source of data)
• Some follow-ups are missed, as sales staff forget to create new tasks after each follow up, depending on if the call was answered or not (for example)
