    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.

    • Reliance on Apache Tomcat causes a lot of headaches. There are common issues trying to start up the server, resulting from Apache Tomcat misconfigurations, or Java. Some forum posts on Sage City address common issues, but digging into server logs seems to be an often occurrence.
    • Support is somewhat lacking, less user install base means error messages are sometimes hard to find quick answers for. Most of the knowledge found on the internet is in the Sage City forum.
    • Integration with Microsoft 365 causes you to have to turn off some security features. This will result in your 365 tenants running lower security standards than recommended, it may put you at risk for targeted attacks.

    There are really no other words to say, it is a very easy to use application that is more straightforward and has provided better results with the bulk of features that appeal to a very broad amount of users. There may be other CRM platforms out there that are more prevalent, but I have found them to be much more clunky and less intuitive than Sage 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.

    Excellent integration with the most important social networks (LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter) to get leads. The mobile app is quite useful for speeding up the tasks at hand and not relying on the computer or being in the office to get them done.

    Sage works very quickly based on the network you are using it on. It is internet based so if your network is slow, it will perform slowly. Reports seem to run reasonably fast, if there is too much information it is trying to populate that could slow it down a little. When Sage CRM is integrated with a Sage ERP product it doesn't tend to slow down either system at all

    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

    Support team is really slow and they need to work on this really. Sometimes it takes days to resolve a simple query and there is no way to get it expedited. Rest the product is is amazing but the team should look into the costumer support and get it working

    The implementation and upgrades were rather quick and straight forward. Attempting to link Sage CRM with Sage 100 ERP however was a nightmare and will be avoided by us in the future due to numerous issues.

    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.

    Whilst SAGE CRM was selected around 10 years ago and we became a partner, the main contenders would have been at the time Sales Logix and MS CRM 4.0. However, we had extensive experience of the mid-market CRM's and decided on SAGE CRM since it had a clean, easy to understand interface and importantly offered both workflow automation and Self Service capability, all of which across both the Case and Sales and Marketing functionality was seamless and saved time. As it was pure browser based, access was from anywhere we wanted. In my view, SAGE CRM still stacks up well against all the other mid-market CRM systems and offers good value for money, but more importantly, it is an easy to operate and customisable solution which user like. Again, we can teach administration users very quickly to support and customise themselves since the admin. function are clear as well.
