CRM Assistant for Gmail™ vs. Pipedrive

Since this is a simple add-on, and we don't work at home, its mobility is very useful for employees like us who need to travel for work. We can check on our phones or tables if there's an important update. It works well with GMail mobile app and easily accessible anytime, anywhere.

Pipedrive is a fantastic tool to help monitor and track lead generation and referral sources. It helps maintain accountability with the sales team and helps ensure that we are doing appropriate marketing to maintain a steady influx of cases. The weekly and quarterly sales reports that it can generate are incredibly helpful and insightful. They help inform us of what we need to focus on each quarter/year.

• Great visual visibility of the funnel plus easy to drag the deals across the stages
• The email integration that collects all relevant communication (also through the possibility of adding a deal-specific Pipedrive address on BCC)
• The integration with Pandadoc, which we use a lot, so that Pipedrive keeps a really handy overview of the documents we have sent out / which have been signed

• It's dependency on other apps
• This could have been a multiple in one if they just integrated everything else in CRM Assistant for Gmail™
• Recently Opened Records could have been placed in a different tab for its own, instead of the home page

Incentivized

• Showing the customers name on the pipeline page. Right now I can only get it to show the brand name twice. I wish it would replace the second brand name with the main point of contact.
• Better reporting tools. Their reporting tools are not easy to pick up. I've spent time trying to figure it out and it isn't something I can pick up on quickly.
• Better training options. I wish I had a personal trainer to walk me through the best way to use Pipedrive so I can get the most out of it.

-2 for Its cost and +8 for the need of tracking of leads and monitoring of team.

The work it does is exactly what we needed for the kind of business we're running. We're handling hotel blocks and commissionable sales, and it helps us remain organized with our records and recent activities. It also helps us keep track of our productivity everyday and keeps important files safe without the risk of being leaked.

Pipedrive is easy to use and has a clean interface so we can follow up accurately. Its custom features help manage leads and evaluate team performance. It saves time and improves efficiency. Pipedrive is stable and supports integrations and automation.

Between quick video tutorials and having very quick feedback from their support teams, it is one of the main reasons I would recommend Pipedrive. It is critical, especially when setting up the platform to meet your companies needs, that a solid support team like Pipedrive has is there to make the transition easier.

Experiment is the only way to start

I much prefer the interface of Pipedive when compared to Zoho. Much more user friendly and the team is always readily available when we need them. Pipedrive allowed for many custom integrations to be added, as Zoho was a tad more complicated to manipulate. We would not go back to Zoho in any case.

• We started from GMV of 200k to 1M from January to April.
• From 1M GMV in April, to consistently achieving 2M and up in October.
• Other apps would be to pricey. I'd say it's worth the value for the work it does for our numbers!

Incentivized

• Great on setup which made our work easier and less technically equipped people can manage a lot of things(compared to SalesForce where you need to hire a developer to set it up)
• We were able to integrate our calling system easily and get things going on the lead calling aspect.
• Great multipipeline option where we were able to manage both organisations under one roof.
