Ease of use. It was easy for me to navigate. I have a PhD from YouTube University (lol), but I did not have to refer to YouTube to learn how to use it. I just dug right in.

Pros
ProProfs
  • easy to track the performance of email campaigns with the help of detailed reports and analytics
  • BigContacts also allows us to define custom triggers for delivering emails

Zoho
  • Manage big databases. We have a large database of contacts and partners (more than 5,000 contacts), which are updated day by day, as a result of our participation in conferences, webinars, etc. For this reason, we needed a platform that would allow us to always have our database up to date, and accessible and editable by any member of the company.
  • Pipelines. Pipelines are very necessary in our daily lives, since we present many service proposals to different clients, and until now we control the status very manually. With Bigin by Zoho CRM, we can have all this information centralized in a single place, and know at all times the status of the service proposals we present (sent, pending decision, lost, won...).
  • Product definition. The product definition block has allowed us to further structure our typologies of products and services. At least, it has allowed us to reflect on them and what is the best way to package the service offered.
  • Control panel. The control panel has been very useful for us to be able to quickly see the main indicators (offers presented, next actions to be taken, etc.).

An application that offers you simplicity in use and does not burden you with useless functions or buttons but at the same time gives you the flexibility you need. It is much more user-friendly than HubSpot and the technical support is at the level of excellence. There is even a function through which you can record your monitor. O aplicatie care iti ofera simplitate in folosire si nu te incarca cu functii sau butoane nefolositoare dar in acelasi timp iti ofera flexibilitatea de care ai nevoie.Este cu mult mai prietenos cu utilizatorii decat HubSpot iar suportul tehnic este la nivel de excelenta. Exista chiar si o functie prin care iti poti inregistra monitorul.

The support is all international and it takes a while to get support as you have to go through chats and set up times, not as easy to just call and get the support you need. They are very nice when you do finally connect with someone and they are knowledgeable, just challenging being international sometimes.

The price is much more attractive than equivalent tools. Pipe drive is as good, but the cost is a big factor when you are a small company, especially at the beginning. So that is why we chose BIgin, and we are delighted with it. With five members, it saves a few hundreds of euros a year.
