ConvergeHub vs HoneyBook

Likelihood to Recommend

It is really well suited for clients looking to automate the process with a budget constraint and that is inline with most small and medium enterprises, startups as well as entrepreneurs looking for a productive environment to grow their business in.

Because HoneyBook is so easy to use and set up, I would definitely recommend HoneyBook to a new small business owner who is looking to collect general client information and manage clients. I would not recommend HoneyBook to a larger company or really anyone that as a standard books more than 1 event on a day (the system sees that as a conflict and sends error messages). Anyone that wants to really make use of data should not use HoneyBook as that's not what this system is designed for.

The inability to export client data is ultimately what led us to switch to another CRM. It was great to be able to see all client project information within the specific project, but we needed everything from contracts, to general client data to form submissions and questionnaires to ALL be exportable data and that was not an option. All information only lived in HoneyBook.
HoneyBook's forms were beautiful but I wish they would have been able to link to SurveyMonkey or Zapier to allow for more integrations. We might not have switched to another platform had that been the case.

ConvergeHub offers the best set of features and the interface that it does at a price that is by far the best out of its competitors. This has been an easy-to-sell product as the maximum amount of clients are startups or SMEs and budget is the main constraint for them, with which the views of ConvergeHub creators seem to align well.

We researched many other CRM programs before choosing HoneyBook (including Dubsado, DJ Event Planner, Zoho, Salesforce, and Intellivent). HoneyBook had the best offerings for the best price and has been a successful solution to our needs. The task management, pipeline, and task management for clients are unmatched and very easy to use. We were able to customize all of our emails, brochures, and contracts to match our brand and provide a streamlined experience for our clients. HoneyBook has also been excellent at continually improving the platform and having new releases on a consistent basis. Even if the software doesn't have all the things I need (we have worked through some kinks along the way due to our company size), they are constantly growing and improving. I have also received excellent customer service from everyone at HoneyBook even though I have been demanding at times. These are the reasons I have stayed with HoneyBook even though there are a couple of improvements to the system (related to team functionality and reporting) that we are waiting for. I would recommend this software to anyone in my industry!
