GridBuddy Connect vs. Mindmatrix Bridge

1. Making broad changes to data, like moving ownership of records from one user to another for a new Sales Rep or a moved Sales Rep. 2. Making broad changes to data for product changes, product introductions and such (product naming changes, product description changes, etc.). I recently had to make a change to the name of a Product Option. Product Options are a sub-object related to Product. This name change was in 22 places. Okay, 18 [is] not a lot, but to make this change individually 22 times is still very tedious and takes too much of my time. Instead, I set up my Grid with the Object and sub-Object and made all 22 changes at once with a mass change. Piece of cake. And I don't have to go back to several of the records to see if the change was made successfully (something you have to do with Dataloader). I could see the effective change all at once on my Grid screen.

I would only recommend Mindmatrix as a short term solution for companies that want to take advantage of the ready made drip campaigns for their vertical.

• Reshapes the user Interface into an intuitive, clean, easy and thoughtful way, meaning Salesforce can be practically used for applications that (in my Opinion) salesforce was never designed for.
• Mass updates are a God send, Leaving quick and meaningful notes, setting up meetings with clients or upcoming calls to maintain contact, all from the same screen without information overload... a real achievement.

• Drip campaigns ready to go for several Industries

• Does not allow users to create new Campaign Member records; we would like to be able to add multiple Campaign Member records to a Campaign in a Grid.
• Does not allow users to create new Task records; we would like to be able to add multiple Tasks records related to the same user but multiple Opportunities and Contacts.

• Navigation is confusing, not intuitive.
• Creating and changing users must be done by a ticketing request.
• Horrific support, all email and overseas, rarely talk to anyone.
• There are issues in practically every area. There are inconsistencies with sharing of contacts, sharing of client and CRM data. For example, only the owner of the campaign can see reports on that particular campaign. There are sharing inconsistencies throughout the entire program that just do not make sense.
• There is also an unusually high amount of undelivered mail, and a very high SPAM occurrence. Much higher than our backup, MailChimp for example.

- Easy of use - Visual nature of using the product (as compared to Dataloader) - Quickness of making changes/updates/edits to long lists of records, live and real-time

There are a lot of bugs and poor design in this product.

GridBuddy was very easy to implement

This is the 1st inline editing product we have tested. The only reason we would ever go with another product is the price.

I selected Mindmatrix solely based on the content they had available for our vertical.

• Our sales executives save a lot of time reviewing all opportunities in a single editable view.
• Gridbuddy improves the functionality of our CRM by allowing us to edit multiple opportunities in one place.
• It is generally faster and easier to build a report in GridBuddy than it is in SAP C4C.

• Drip campaigns can be started right away because there are prebuilt templates for our vertical.
