Another CRM like Creatio is not very user-friendly. With a lot of complications, it might take a long time for a new user to master it, but Pipeliner CRM is easier to use and easier to master within a short period of time, which makes it more efficient and effective than any …
Chose Coevera
I will always select Pipeliner CRM because it is very flexible, easy to work with, data capturing is at its best, its integration to other major software’s and it aids in the monitoring of the core work process. One distinctive feature is it is very easy to learn without …

Sales friendly interface with uniform navigation
Chose Coevera
Pipeliner is easy to set up and it does not take time to get working other than the other CRM's that take up to 2 months before you can use it. Also pipeliner is easy to use and it is less costly unlike the other CRM's with high prices they charge.
Chose Coevera
We wanted a pure cloud-based solution with a reliable mobile app. This was a key driving force: reducing issues around upgrade and IT maintenance of servers etc. It was the first cloud-based solution welcomed by the team with an attractive interface that was common to both …
Chose Coevera
Easy to integrate, comprehensive navigation, and well-understanding sales process.
Chose Coevera
It is better than Pipedrive since its features are more advanced than Pipedrive. Pipeliner has a better mobile app and its features are great to use.
Chose Coevera
Pipeliner CRM has robust data entry functionality which is a panacea to exquisite output. On Pipeliner, customization and data viewing options are possible. We can choose the way we view data and information on the platform. Reporting is also easier and flexible because we can …
Chose Coevera
Pipeliner's visual user interface is a favorite of our sales team. I love the LinkedIn integration. It makes searching and linking in with prospects and customers easy. I also really enjoy how it pulls the pictures. This is especially handy when meeting with someone that you've …

Workbooks
Chose Workbooks
We felt the high amount of customisation available from Workbooks was much more beneficial to us than the offerings from the larger CRM companies. We also liked the smaller company mentality of Workbooks as it reminded us of ourselves. Ultimately the price also paid a factor as …
Chose Workbooks
We selected Workbooks because it had a more powerful reporting engine and a much slicker way of managing the sales pipeline and territories. It also gave us the ability to manage the support contracts better and ensure that the support team knew exactly who was in an active …
Chose Workbooks
The ability to customize Workbooks really gave them the lead against the other products that we have used or that we considered when upgrading from the Base CRM system.
Chose Workbooks

Workbooks was the best overall value. It had the functionality the client needed at the best price and the quickest implementation set up and overall time frame.
Chose Workbooks
Workbooks is highly customizable, affordable, scalable, and a workhorse when it comes to being able to design a system to get things done. There is almost no limitations to what can be done with it, and even if you don't want to use their built in automation engine to design …
Chose Workbooks
Stacks up well against private sector CRM, membership MRM and fundraising management systems - We needed functionality only normally seen within one or another of these system types and we chose Workbooks due to the comprehensive nature of what it can do, ease of use, …
Chose Workbooks
For us, SFDC was like using a sledge hammer to crack a walnut. Plus the cost put us off.
CallPro CRM came a close second in our review, but what made us eventually go with Workbooks was the UI. It was a much more friendly environment to work in.
Chose Workbooks
Have worked with the likes of SugarCRM, Salesforce, Siebel, and some of their predecessors. Most of them are too much, too complex and too expensive. Have seen most of these implemenations fail. Buying these typically require much consultancy and much bespoke implementation …
Chose Workbooks
We were previously with Sugar and this served us well when we started with very little money and a few staff, however we quickly outgrew Sugar and additional functionality required custom work or 3rd party plugin's. We needed a scalable system that could grow with our business, …
Chose Workbooks
We looked at Salesforce and Sage, they were too heavy and the custom work required meant any change would be cost prohibitive.
Chose Workbooks
Much lower cost than both products Very favourable comparison in user experience with M'soft Better GUI than S'force
Chose Workbooks
Salesforce, Pivotal and Sugar. I find Workbooks much easier to use and more efficient.
Chose Workbooks
Haven't used any similar products.
Chose Workbooks
Easier to use…….and less expensive to customise.
Chose Workbooks
Sage CRM overall is a good product, but it's ease of use left something to be desired, especially with our administrative department that had little to no experience with CRM.
Another BIG PLUS of Workbooks.com over Sage is the fact that it's somewhere between 50% to 30% cheaper! …

Pipeliner CRM is amazingly flexible to your business model. For example, in addition to tracking movement of leads through your sales pipeline, Pipeliner CRM can be used to track internal processes, like RFQ and RFPs through your organization. It's highly adaptable across your organization.

Workbooks offers great support, as do ( in our experience) local partners. It works really well for our sales and marketing departments. Workbooks is really effective in tracking our marketing campaigns. It also keeps tabs on existing clients, and gives insight on how quickly potentials are turned to customers.
As with all CRM it strongly depends on how well it is being maintained and used by the user. We have found that with the ease of use of Workbooks its become much less of an issue. Where as before we didn't only look at the data produced but actually had to keep track of the system being used accurately. We constantly needed to keep tabs on the actual level of maintaining.
The fact that we see data being produced organically (naturally being updated and tracked) to me is a testament of the user friendly nature of workbooks.

Pros
  • Clear and easy visualisation of Sales Process
  • Great capability in reporting both in-app with 'filter' and reporting module built-in is easy to use
  • Reporting into pivot table is also easy and very useful
  • Mobile app has always been very good and easy to use since 2015

  • Sales process management from enquiry to delivery of product
  • This was previously on as many as 4 systems using excel and legacy applications such as the written word in log books
  • Automatic reporting for financial compliance: once built, the reporting process reduced the workload on a monthly basis from 2 days to 20 minutes
  • The FD loved it
  • The overall capability of the package enabled the sales force to rapidly pull our pertinent data for a sales call, plus managing time and resources better for increased efficiency
  • Business development and focussed marketing became so much easier, we noted that the process paid for itself many times over

Cons
  • Pipeliner CRM needs to create a video chat room where you can see exactly where your employee is working in the field.
  • Pipeliner CRM needs to integrate a command where a user can use his voice to command what he wants.
Read full review
  • We use it for support but find it difficult to easily link support emails that arrive to organisations, it requires a lot of manual input to open/close a case
  • The flexibility can be a hindrance as it can be difficult to work out exactly what you wish to see, especially in reports. Sometimes a simple report is all thats required but it provides a lot of information
  • Can sometimes be a little slow and goes down from time to time but this is fairly rare

Currently the company is using the Pipeliner CRM because we believe it is a tool that puts the customer as the main focus of business processes in order to understand and anticipate their needs, and then serve them in the best way.

Usability
I gave that rating level because it reflects both my satisfaction and expectations about PipelinerCRM.Plus, the adoption rate of this software. I mean the usability rate is very low. It just takes, for learning, a couple of hours less than three days roughly. Return on time investment is low also.

The support from Pipeliner CRM is superb; they have instant customer support and they are on time. They also give enough knowledge of sales and other material for the knowledge. They also have AI in the support by talking with customer support directly from the web or app and so on.

Workbooks is highly customizable, affordable, scalable, and a workhorse when it comes to being able to design a system to get things done. There is almost no limitations to what can be done with it, and even if you don't want to use their built in automation engine to design highly specific workflows, the functionality out of the gates is a tremendous asset for most businesses

Return on Investment
  • As a VisualCRM tool, our clients sales teams seem to accelerate their deal closes.
  • The visual tools allow those "no good deals" to be spotted and resource usage limited.
  • A great tool to manage those "pipelines" within the company. A pipe is really a series of actions that constitute a planned result.
Read full review
  • Tracking of customers who are in active support or not has benefited the support team's time by not supporting non paying customers.
  • Keeping track of why sales are won or lost has meant we can call upon times when new leads have the same characteristics as old wins/loses.
  • Creating auto invoicing scripts has drastically cut the finance team's invoicing time.
