    It is difficult to beat the simplicity of use and design of Capsule CRM. Add to the fact that they offer the best free plan which is great to sign up our clients with so that they can see how valuable having a CRM is. Getting newbies to use CRM with ease helps us with our CRM projects and to sign up more clients seamlessly. Hence, it is perfect place to start with for a small business. Based on feedback from clients, who already have some premium apps to manage their sales and work orders, it can get tricky to integrate them with Capsule CRM and hence it's not that favourable in the complex IT solution use case for specific clients. Support is through messages only and it can get a bit frustating if one is in a hurry to get the setup done. It's preferred to take your time and raise support tickets as and when necessary.

    Great tool for client management, sales tracking, cases studies. Using is as the source of truth for all client communication. Allowing more integration options for cc and ACH payments. Right now the options are limited and only integrate with strict processing capabilities that are not always in the businesses best interest.

    Pros
    Zestia
    • Capsule is very easy to use. You can just jump in and learn as you go. There are advantages to really learning the ins and outs, but for those who aren't sold on a CRM to begin with it's good for just getting them started. It is what you make of it--you can use the most basic features or really dive in to the many functionalities.
    • The UI is clean and intuitive. We don't get easily overwhelmed while using it.
    • Capsule has a very robust contact management system. It allows for the generation of very specific lists within existing contacts, which is good if the user has to keep track of thousands of individuals and companies. There is a tagging feature that is great for further organizing contacts.
    • I like that there is a simple workflow option. I encourage the sales guys to make use of this "Tracks" feature, and they often do (but if they don't, it's not the end of the world, which is nice). It provides custom sets of tasks that are created as soon as you start an opportunity or a case.
    • Capsule has a LOT of integrations, which is great if you're looking to expand what you do with your CRM. We got Capsule just to keep track of the sales pipeline, but now that everyone's on board with the concept of a CRM (they weren't sold at first!) we can look into implementing more robust programs that can "talk to" Capsule.

    Cons
    Zestia
    • Its integration with Mail chimp is not smooth. Also, it does not allow to list contacts alphabetically which is a great downside of this tool. It does not contain some essential marketing features.
    • It needs to improve the user interface and make it more productive especially on the calendar view.
    • The contact sorting is quite disappointing. It would be nice if it allows users to set screen filters.

    Capsule CRM is the best application in allocating the problems and reasons for any project drawback. Your solution will be there within seconds. It controls business empowerment with its authentic approach and we can use this application without any problem. Our employees are on a single platform and we can decide and implement things at once. There is no need to wait for any meeting, as everything is just a click away. Our promotions are technical and easy to understand for clients and they can communicate well to deliver their ideas.

    We chose Capsule CRM over Zoho CRM due to the various modules that it would take for Zoho CRM to work for our firm. Additional Zoho modules would have been needed (Zoho CRM and Projects) to make it work for us which in turn requires additional management. With Capsule CRM, there was only one app that needed to be integrated within our app ecosystem

    we have evaluated Snowflake, adobe rt-cdp as well. They also offer a very strong capabilities but the Data 360 is more suitable for us because of the same Salesforce ecosystem. The main key factor is without any custom code we were able to include it into our automations. And ofcourse with agentforce already in plans, we had to pick Data 360

    • It's enabled us to have a cloud-based live database, rather than living off spreadsheets or an antiquated Access database
    • It's hard to really quantify ROI on a small startup, but it's been very helpful to have a small scale but powerful CRM as we grow the company.
    • Since we don't use it entirely as it's intended, the terminology and shortcuts are a bit confusing.

    • Salesforce Data Cloud has a positive impact on me as a realtor because it is easy to generate reports on customer data and see what is needed to be bumped to the next level. We have to earn a certain commission by the end of the year and it makes it easy to see how close you are
    • It has a positive impact on keeping track of customers because it is nice to have it all in one place which is a nice time saver
    • I like that you can even see customer info from other agents making it nice to compare and try and pass others
    • Makes the customers journey smooth sailing because everything is in one place
