If someone only runs a campaign using email and telephone communication, Autoklose is perfect, and I highly recommend it. If someone uses a more diverse set of tools and wants a more complex type of sequence, Autoklose does not allow their users to program communication tools that some other tools and software allow.

When sending emails Salesforce Inbox provides valuable insights before sending. We usually send emails to clients and before Salesforce Inbox we would need to check in Salesforce to get details regarding the contact we are sending to. With the Salesforce Inbox there is no need to look in Salesforce as it is connected directly to Gmail or Outlook.

Cons
VanillaSoft
  • AutoKlose uses your own email, (e.g. Microsoft Outlook), so it runs the risk of exceeding the Microsoft Message Rate Limit, which can be problematic for your Outlook account.
  • Additional throttling limits for the SMTP Authentication protocol are:
  • 30 messages per minute
  • Recipient rate limit of 10,000 recipients per day.
  • Exceeding these limits will cause the following issues:
  • Exceeding the per minute limit causes email delivery delays, any excess in message submission will be throttled and successively carried over to the following minutes.
  • Exceeding the per day limit causes the following error message:
  • 554 5.2.0 STOREDRV.Submission.Exception:SubmissionQuotaExceededException.

Usability
VanillaSoft
Whether it's setting up integrations, creating email campaigns, managing conversations with prospects, Autoklose is a well-designed tool that provides clarity along the way for users to find their bearings, and understand what to do. The help documentation is excellent, the support is great, but the tool is built in a way that simply makes sense when you're using it.

I think that I have already said it, Autoklose has much better support and is really quick to set up and use compared with any of the other systems that I have used over the years.

While I have not used many other automated email CRM integration systems, SalesforceIQ is hands down a crucial part of my daily work flow. I could not picture our company putting up the monthly numbers we are able to allocate without the efficiency and concise notification settings SalesforceIQ gives Everlasting Capital. I highly recommend if you're looking for fast integration results to update numerous departments within your company, to look into SalesforceIQ as it will make your daily tasks substantially easier while keeping all parties more thoroughly notified.

It's expensive to have a single seat for each salesperson, so the alias feature will be the perfect addition to this product.
