BizSuite has transformed our CRM activities by streamlining sales, customer relationship management, and project tracking. Its comprehensive features help us address key business challenges, ensuring efficient operations. As our business expands, BizSuite's scalability seamlessly adapts to our growing CRM needs, supporting our objectives and driving continued success.
I think my single most surprising and satisfying experience with ECI and its RockSolid Maxx and then Spruce products was the ease of implementation and rollout -- both on the hardware and software side. ECI seems to have mastered the idea of using an integrated team along with robust tutorials to make that process easy.
BizSuite is utilized across various facets of our business, including sales, CRM, inventory,projects, HRMS and accounting. Its integration into our daily operations addresses key challenges, enhances overall efficiency, and supports our growth. As our business evolves, BizSuite’s scalable solutions continue to meet our expanding needs and ensure operational excellence.
BizSuite ERP system currently lacks seamless integration with certain third-party applications. More integration would improve the system efficiency
Though separate mobile application is available for some modules like CRM, attendance, HRMs, but not all modules are mobile friendly. All modules works best on desktop and tablet.
Through the simplification of sales, customer relationship management, and project tracking, BizSuite has completely changed our CRM operations. Its extensive features ensure effective operations by assisting us in addressing important business difficulties. BizSuite's scalability allows it to effortlessly adjust to our expanding CRM needs as our firm grows, helping us achieve our goals and ensuring our success.
For the most part when there is internet, we are able to log in and proceed to do our daily tasks which is very helpful, but we have also encountered a glitch on our laptop that we use to do inventory that switches to the last branch that was used. This, in combination with Spruce logging out of the remote connection daily, can cause issues if the person accessing Spruce does not have the remote connection password.
As compared to Zoho we find BizSuite very user-friendly to manage. It has effectively improves sales operations. Lead management & Job creation & tacking was made easy with the help of BizSuite.
Spruce is possibly just above average. Not super impressed with usability and especially not impressed with tech support who is rarely able to answer questions on the first call.
With $13 million in gross and 40 employees I'm able to run a full back office with a staff of two. In today's tight labor market that is invaluable.
Being able to implement Spruce with almost no upgrading or replacement of existing computer hardware represented a huge cost savings to us. I'm not even sure what dollar amount I could attach to that.
Dealing with both a wholesale and retail customers requires that we provide different levels and kinds of reporting and documentation. Spruce has made it easy to respond to the different demands that those customers place upon us.
