MethodCRM vs. Ringostat

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.

• 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

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

Be available to learn! There is a huge learning curve to this program. You have to be willing to take it all in. Be available to the Method expert and be patient.

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.

We chose this service because of these reasons: 1. It's an all-in-one solution for virtual PBX and call tracking. 2. The ability to fully track the personal efficiency of our managers. 3. It's a complete solution, our manager could call from the browser without installing apps, also service provided full info about the client before calling. 4. All calls can be recorded, so we had all the history of calls to check out the work of our managers. 5. Has a trial period to check out if this solution could satisfy our needs.
