Likelihood to Recommend Bigin by
Zoho CRM is suitable for medium-size or small-size companies. In our case, being a small company, all the functions that Bigin by
Zoho CRM offers are more than enough. If in the future we need features that are not currently covered by the platform, we will evaluate the possibility of migrating to
Zoho CRM . But for the moment (until now we had never used a CRM), everything that Bigin by
Zoho CRM offers us fits our needs perfectly. Perhaps for other very large companies, Bigin by
Zoho CRM surely does not cover all needs, although I couldn't give examples.
Read full review Oncontact is an excellent software/service, and it covers a tremendous breadth of usage scenarios. The customization means that customers can adapt it as they see fit. About the only place where I don't see it as a great fit is in minimal implementations. A lot is going on, and using it for small tasks isn't the best use of the software.
Read full review Pros Bigin by Zoho CRM has embedded the marketing automation feature in its operations. Also, Bigin supports CRM, through social media engagement and other working platforms. Bigin provides the management team with customizable reports, after extensive analysis from the entire market segment. Read full review Read full review Cons The CRM is majorly for small teams and does not have use cases for bigger organizations It needs to add some add-on features like email automation and journey creation from CRM itself. There is room for improvement in some specific use cases, like adding enrichment to leads manually or API integrated. Read full review Customization could be easier. Just about anything is possible, but the learning curve is steep. More focus on mass loading Read full review Likelihood to Renew Because it is good.
Read full review The company has been using Oncontact for some time now. Many of the business processes require the use of a CRM software package. It helps solve some pretty serious problems, and overall the cost is very justified. Also, the developer is very good at keeping it up to date and introducing new functionality.
Read full review Usability It has some great functions that are very easy to use and user-friendly, however overall it is not a very robust system and the fact that it only does sales and not the rest of the cycle for an organization makes it very limiting. There are a lot of functions that are very basic, but for the price it does offer a lot of value for a smaller company that just needs basic functions to track.
Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review Oncontact provided many, but not all of the features of Salesforce.com . However, the complexity and cost involved in Salesforce.com was an overriding factor for us to use Oncontact. Not just the initial and licensing fee, but it seemed that just about everything we wanted to do involved consultants or more work or licensing. Oncontact was easier to implement out of the box, even when we did need to make customizations. We looked at Microsoft 365 Business , and while it was comparable in price for the initial cost, the integration with our other software systems was not built-in, so we did not pursue it very much. Read full review Return on Investment Reaching more possible customers quickly and with less effort. The fact of being able to automate sending to our contact database, which has previously been tagged and categorized, has allowed us to send information in a more agile way (previously we simply used Outlook, without any type of automation). Automatically consulting all the email history you have with any of the contacts has allowed us to be more efficient and avoid duplication in communications. The process of implementing and integrating Bigin in our company, although it was not difficult, we found some difficulties to synchronize the database loaded in Bigin by Zoho CRM with our Office365 account.
