    LeadMaster
    My company works with a client who offers a SaaS solution to
    the beauty sector. We had been using Salesforce for three years but needed a
    system with lead nurturing, workflow automation, and user-friendliness that
    Salesforce lacked without a hefty monthly price tag.

    We are taking use of LeadMaster's eMarketing, automation,
    and workflow management capabilities as well as the streamlined nature of the
    Professional Edition. We've been able to better regulate the sales process and
    boost our conversion rate as a result.

    We have been very pleased with LeadMaster's customer service
    and would suggest their product without reservation.

    Method[:CRM] is well suited when you have a large company that needs to keep track of customers. It also connects with Quickbooks and that has really been nice for our organization. Our company is small so this really helps us stay on track and build our data base of customers.

    • It would be great if we could attach files to a lead or account in general and not just in an activity or opportunity.
    • All custom fields do not show up as options for a view when searching for leads or customers within certain parameters.

    The things Method does well - QuickBooks data integration and extreme customization - it does very, very well. If you are looking for a CRM product or any business process automation software that integrates with QuickBooks, you have to look at Method CRM

    Usability
    LeadMaster
    My ability to more effectively manage the workflow in our office has been greatly enhanced by LeadMaster. Each member of my team is aware of the students they are responsible for recruiting and the specific process that should be followed with each and every one of them. The system also enables us to practically eliminate the use of paper in our process, which helps to reduce the number of different types of office errors.

    Method has a great overall "usability". Once we started using the software; it did not take long before we were able to start editing our own web lead forms, email templates, etc. I think there is a learning curve however the learning curve is not bad. Anyone looking for a cloud CRM should start here

    Support Rating
    LeadMaster
    The reason to give this rating because of the following.

    1. Assessing the efficiency of campaigns involving
    several agencies and points of contact

    2. True close loop reporting

    3. The capacity to manage a channel through the use
    of features for updating leads and pipelines.

    4. Ensuring that no leads were lost and that they
    were always assigned to someone for follow-up, whether the lead originated
    through e-marketing, the filling out of a form on a website, or even a lead
    from a trade fair

    5. Creating a seamless connection between marketing
    and lead generating

    The Customer Support of this app is fantastic. If you ever have any questions they are there to answer you or fix whatever issue that you are having. The FAQ pages are also extremely helpful when you want to learn about the more in-depth qualities this program has to offer.

    My client has been using Salesforce for the past two years,
    but they were looking for a system that would provide lead nurturing, workflow
    automation, and overall ease of use – functionality that was just not available
    within Salesforce without incurring a large, monthly fee. I'm using one of my
    clients who has been using Salesforce for the past two years.

    Because of LeadMaster's user-friendliness, robust automation
    and workflow management, and eMarketing capabilities, we have decided to employ
    the Professional Edition. As a result, we are able to better regulate the sales
    process and achieve a higher closure rate.

    We chose Method:CRM for the QuickBooks integration. It was important for us to have integrations that allowed us to view payments, organize our contacts, and manage our sales force. There were some learning curves, however, such as creating activities, leads, customers and making sure our payments were being logged appropriately. I do wish that payments would be added to the calendar automatically so that the sales rep could view and make a phone call letting them know their invoice is due.

    • Method:CRM has probably saved me about 6-10 hours per week over the past few years.
    • It has likely saved our company several hundred hours in the last 10 years.
    • It has specifically saved us countless hours with better data management vs. having separate spreadsheets for keeping track of things.
