Likelihood to Recommend I already mentioned some specific scenarios in the earlier parts of my review. I'd say that my best experience has been Customer Service. When I was first using Less Annoying CRM and had NEVER BEFORE used any sort of CRM, I was intimidated. Surprisingly, the company had a customer service phone number as well as a way to email them. I contacted them for help initially. They were quick to respond, and were willing to set up appointments to walk me through the setup process. But it was SO EASY! They have been available, friendly, and helpful, every time. They also have a video series that is super-helpful when you're first learning how to use the CRM.
Read full review Teamgate CRM is well suited for companies that want to centralize leads, current clients, and communication history in one CRM. A scenario where team gate is appropriate is if a company wants to use custom sales pipelines and stages to track a sales lead that will transition to a deal. A scenario where team gate is NOT appropriate is for a company that doesn't need a cloud-based CRM because there don't travel a lot and will always use the same computer that you might as well have a CRM server on-site and save money.

Read full review Pros Simple, intuitive usage Daily agenda emails Ease of moving calendar / action items around, closing out Customer service is extremely responsive, they don't hide behind a "contact us" form on their website as so many companies seem to do. You can readily reach them by phone! Read full review Integration with SMS gateway and Mailchimp is fantastic Great looking dashboard and graphics So easy to use and customise even I could do it Read full review Cons The one thing I was looking for is a place to manage multiple businesses with one project. Like if I am selling a "summer camp guide," I would like to have info for sales in one place with multiple contacts and businesses. LACRM customer service provided a workaround for me by suggesting I set up a specific pipeline for each project and them put each business in there. It is working great and, actually, a much better way to manage the project than I have originally intended. I really don't have anything else to add. LACRM is perfect for us. Read full review As this is cloud-based software, we find that the servers are down at least twice a month, this is too much. The speed of page loading can be improved also it takes long to open reports if you use a big date range. There should be a way to reset another users password.

Read full review Usability In a nutshell, lesson on CRM is everything I didn’t even realize that I wanted. The website is so smooth and intuitive, using it in my mobile browser is unbelievably easy and efficient, and the fact that it’s so remarkably easy to use and the website loads so incredibly fast, that for those things alone deserves a 10. Everything else it does is just a bonus. I highly recommend Less Annoying CRM.
Read full review I rated this product an 8 for overall usability because Teamgate is very user-friendly and this helps the CRM meet the required use case that companies who buy it have. The feature to sign in from anywhere that has a net connection is huge For example the home page being the leads section and the fact that each lead has all the past and current communication with the potential client allows support agents, and the sales team to be on the same page I didn't give it a 10 because the slowness issue affects performance and usability.

Read full review Support Rating I happen to be a blind person that uses a screen reader to access software on my computer. Anytime I have had an issue with the Less Annoying CRM software, I have always had a person from customer service either walk me through my issue or send my concerns to their developers that resolve my issues in a timely manner. I highly recommend this software based off of the customer service alone.
Read full review I haven't had to contact the support team as of yet but my co-worker expressed his frustration with the amount of technical product knowledge the Teamgate support team had. He said he felt he knew the product better than the Teamgate helpdesk.

Salesforce and the problems I was encountering, they took over and implemented the data in such a quick and efficient way, I was looking for the other shoe to drop but they did an amazing job so very impressed
Read full review Alternatives Considered HubSpot has a huge selection of tools, reports, integrations and supports that Less Annoying does not have. It is not comparable in price or functionality - but I am comparing it because it was the last CRM I used before I used Less Annoying, and it made me realize that if you don't need all the bells and whistles, but you just need to track your Customers and manage your leads and you don't want to spend a lot of money, Less Annoying CRM is the way to go.
Read full review When I say we evaluated other CRMs I think that's an understatement, we tried about ten different systems and Teamgate was by far the best.
Read full review Scalability The sales team can use this product as much as the support as lead generating teams.
