Bigin by Zoho CRM vs. Teamgate CRM

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.

Teamgate CRM is well suited for companies that want to centralize leads, current clients, and communication history in one CRM. A scenario where team gate is appropriate is if a company wants to use custom sales pipelines and stages to track a sales lead that will transition to a deal. A scenario where team gate is NOT appropriate is for a company that doesn't need a cloud-based CRM because there don't travel a lot and will always use the same computer that you might as well have a CRM server on-site and save money.

• As this is cloud-based software, we find that the servers are down at least twice a month, this is too much.
• The speed of page loading can be improved also it takes long to open reports if you use a big date range.
• There should be a way to reset another users password.

Because it is good.

The product exceeds our needs usability-wise.

Its easy to use. The interface is simple. Having tried different CRM tools this is probably the easiest to use when starting a business. Its easy to get taken in by all the bells and whistles but starting off we don't need those yet. In fact we simply want to know our contacts, prospects and customers.

I rated this product an 8 for overall usability because Teamgate is very user-friendly and this helps the CRM meet the required use case that companies who buy it have. The feature to sign in from anywhere that has a net connection is huge For example the home page being the leads section and the fact that each lead has all the past and current communication with the potential client allows support agents, and the sales team to be on the same page I didn't give it a 10 because the slowness issue affects performance and usability.

Unplanned outages do cause issues with this cloud platform, as they occur twice a month.

Performance can be faster especially when running reports.

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.

I haven't had to contact the support team as of yet but my co-worker expressed his frustration with the amount of technical product knowledge the Teamgate support team had. He said he felt he knew the product better than the Teamgate helpdesk.

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.

When I say we evaluated other CRMs I think that's an understatement, we tried about ten different systems and Teamgate was by far the best.

The sales team can use this product as much as the support as lead generating teams.
