Close.io is well suited for a sales organization who wants to track leads, make sure none slip through the cracks, move them into opportunities as discussions progress, and close new business. The simplicity of the platform is part of why it's powerful - it's full feature set can be easily understood and leveraged by even those without much training on the system. I'm not sure where Close.io would be less appropriate...

Veelo is my go-to place for information about Chrome River. For example, if I speak to a prospect that has a manual expense reporting process, I will go to Veelo to download some Chrome River content specific to the common pitfalls of processing expense reports manually and send off that content piece in an email. Veelo will also allow me to track open rates to see if the prospect is engaging with the content.

Close
- You can search for prospects by your activity & notes.

Cons
Close
- Minor bugs? - Sometime when I'm replying to an account it attempts to send the email as a different user. Thankfully I've only missed it when sending internal emails!

- Does not work well for individuals that are hands on/kinesthetic learners
- The quizzes at the end of each section are troublesome and can repeat the same info
- Sometimes notifications for due dates are not sent out in regard to assigned training sessions

Close is a simpler platform to use when it comes to initiating email campaigns and managing leads. It has great visibility on opportunities and can be shared with specified users or can also be kept confidential. Close is not for someone who is very new to tools of its kind.

I haven't really had the need to use their support, but the only time I had an issue with the platform, the Close team was very attentive and responded in a short span of time. Also they take minimal time to solve issues. The only con here is there is no way to reach out to them apart from email.

Pipedrive was great for us for a long time. We used it for over 4 years. Our product and process was simple. When things got more complex, we needed something that could handle our growing needs and Pipedrive kept falling short. We built our own custom solution in Airtable and though it worked, we spend a lot of time managing it. Close was able to solve all our issues and save us hours per week in admin work.

- Has allowed us to have full visibility into our pipeline
- Has allowed us to automate lead entry and follow up, saving us tons of time and helping us to make sure we're not letting people slip through the cracks. This is done through the Zapier integration and new email sequences feature
