Bigin by Zoho CRM vs. LeadSquared

Bigin by Zoho CRM is a great CRM for start-ups. it's reasonably priced and allows for streamlining deal tracking at a great price point giving small businesses a competitive edge over larger businesses. There are limitations with third-party integrations since they support the Bigin by Zoho CRM system. But I am happy and will be using it for the foreseeable future

1. Very suitable for an omnichannel business, as it can capture both online and offline lead sources and allows for follow ups. 2. Very suitable for call centers as lead and call tracking can be done very easily using LeadSquared. 3. Not very suitable for on field sales. Even though the mobile app does facilitate portability, the overall experience does not come close to the desktop version which is not feasible for an on field sales representative to use.

• 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.).

• Call history is recorded like dialed calls, connected calls, total talktime in a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and on a custom basis.
• The activity history of both customers, and employees are shown clearly, which help us a lot in understanding the interest of the customer, and their communication history with the organization.
• Daily attendance history and man-days management can be done.
• Sales performance and their values are mapped clearly.

• I would like to link the same contact to more than one company.
• I would like to be able to use only the name field, but I need to use first and last name
• I would like to have a plan where there is no limit on the number of customizable fields

• LeadSquared is a little bit expensive compared to other slimmer products, so they need to think about it.
• Sometimes LeadSquared gets stuck when I use it to run a large campaign, I would like them to improve this.
• LeadSquared creates a problem in slow internet connections, so I guess this is also an improvement area for them.

It is an excellent value for money solution and is fulfilling all our needs quite efficiently. They keep working on the product and each month sees an update allowing for a bug free experience and faster incorporation of newer tools. I see no reason why I would not like to renew the subscription for this fabulous product.

This is because ever since my team and I started using Bigin we have never been stuck to a point where we have no clue on how to use Bigin, the app can be used even by someone who has just started working and has never been exposed to any type of training and soft wares before.

Having talked about all other things in detail in my previous responses, this question I feel is redundant but then I will highlight the points again - Easy to Use - Flexible - Robust System - Ever-evolving - Support & Service - Integrations with third party tools & technologies - LMS - Data Management & Reports - Landing Page Options

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.

Great to work with and also Easy to work with Do not just listen to the problem but provide upfront solutions Always available and are ready to support on holidays Considerate of user's knowledge and always ready to explain the smallest / dumbest doubt a user can ask Always available to help with the internal tasks as well like creating automations, drip creations etc

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.

I looked closely at Infusionsoft. While the nurturing/decision tree tool of Infusionsoft was far more sophisticated, the many negative reviews of Infusionsoft lead me to look elsewhere. Leadsquared had very positive reviews and aggressive pricing. It has less features, but the features they have were the ones I wanted to focus on.

• I was able to migrate from Hubspot CRM easily saving me hours of time
• I have recieved 5 x replies to the email sequence i set up since i started using it
• I have improved lead conversion by 5% so far

• Leads Management has become very easy.
• Automated Lead Nurturing helps reduce a lot of manual work.
• A lot of our time goes into creating custom reports. Making the reporting feature more flexible and robust will help in saving a lot of time and energy.
