LinkPoint Connect vs. Salesflare

LinkPoint is well suited to any situation where Outlook is used for email correspondence and calendar items and there is need to have a record of those items and/or perform connected actions (schedule tasks, follow up reminders, etc.) in Salesforce. Automating this process and removing as much duplication of work as possible is the primary goal and the primary benefit that LinkPoint provides. In addition to efficiency, automating the process also provides a pretty substantial increase in accuracy, removing ca. 50% of the chance for human error. It's pretty simple functionality in concept, but extremely valuable in execution.

If a client or friend of mine was in search of a quality tool that is a robust CRM and has a great team behind it, I would highly recommend SalesFlare. The team has consistently updated the application; it is a robust and useful tool, and most importantly, the team behind SalesFlare is easy to work with when needed.

• Adding emails is a breeze.
• Creating contacts/leads from outlook is as simple as highlight, drag and drop.
• Additional customization to allow you to bring in associates custom objects.

Incentivized

• Organization of our clients as well lead and opportunity tracking and management.
• Pipeline management and a significant amount of depth when it comes to monitoring sales and other opportunities.
• It provides an overview of the sales process and custom fields for individual accounts (such as branding).

• The plug-in for Outlook needs to be reset every couple of months.
• It does not tag e-mails sent from mobile devices (or we haven't figured out how to do that yet).

• Salesflare automatically captures and organises data about leads so it can effectively surface the ones that require your attention. It also provides you with the tools to do just that. What it doesn't cover as much right now is feeding top of the funnel: I would for example happily pay extra to have a website visitor identification functionality into the mix.

The pipeline, which is the core of the platform, is very clear and full of features. On top of that Salesflare added automations, integrations, plugins and emails. You can easily get your leads there from any platform and nurture your leads until you get the deal done. I think any business can benefit from using this sales CRM.

Never had to use the support team, which probably means the product works well!

Hit them on Chat support, and you are gonna get a response within a few minutes (if not in a few hours, during weekends) But they are gonna keep following with you till they make sure that your query has been resolved. Keep it up!

Prior to our move to LinkPoint, we used the Salesforce add-in for Outlook. This required manual syncing of email and calendar items and no easy to use interface between the two programs. It was very cumbersome for me to use, to the point where I quit using it altogether some time ago. I found it far less frustrating to just switch back and forth between Outlook and Salesforce and manually perform the requisite actions, create tasks or other items, enter the required data, etc.

Pipedrive was another option but I chose Salesflare for the seamless integration into my regular everyday workflow as well as its ability to integrate with just about any app you can think of. It plays nice with all of my other apps and makes using a CRM actually fun. I love the fact it works inside my Gsuite account and automatically pulls data from Gsuite into Salesflare.

Incentivized

• Activity history tracking. Our users send most of their emails from outlook.
• Contact and lead creation.
• Visibility of all associated records.

• As a start up, Salesflare was perfect for me. It was easy to get up and running; easy for me to import my contacts, and easy to earn the features.
• I like the price point - lots of features for a reasonable price.
