Oncontact vs. Streak

Oncontact is an excellent software/service, and it covers a tremendous breadth of usage scenarios. The customization means that customers can adapt it as they see fit. About the only place where I don't see it as a great fit is in minimal implementations. A lot is going on, and using it for small tasks isn't the best use of the software.

If you receive a notification that a prospect just read your email and you don't receive a response, you're then aware they've received it and your pitch or product is on their mind -- making a call later that day all the more effective.

• The e-mail tracking feature is easy to use and very handy.
• The snippets feature are very good, have shortcuts to use and save a lot of time.
• Having a CRM platform inside your Gmail/Gsuite account is great for improving the use in a day to day basis.

• Customization could be easier. Just about anything is possible, but the learning curve is steep.
• More focus on mass loading

• Streak should work better with Microsoft. Often you need to run your excel files through Sheets in order for them to be compatible.
• Having a Dashboard rather than being a tab in your email might add to its usability.
• Automated progression through the stages

The company has been using Oncontact for some time now. Many of the business processes require the use of a CRM software package. It helps solve some pretty serious problems, and overall the cost is very justified. Also, the developer is very good at keeping it up to date and introducing new functionality.

They do a great job of explaining the product beforehand so support interaction is not needed as much.

• Oncontact provided many, but not all of the features of Salesforce.com. However, the complexity and cost involved in Salesforce.com was an overriding factor for us to use Oncontact. Not just the initial and licensing fee, but it seemed that just about everything we wanted to do involved consultants or more work or licensing. Oncontact was easier to implement out of the box, even when we did need to make customizations.
• We looked at Microsoft 365 Business, and while it was comparable in price for the initial cost, the integration with our other software systems was not built-in, so we did not pursue it very much.

HubSpot was almost too freeform, I had a hard time grasping how it could work for me because there was so much that could be changed around. Streak was so easy to figure out without much time invested and I like that it just lives in my Gmail without needing to go to a separate website/login.

• It has helped me save time on reaching out to people thinking that they didn't get my first email.
• It had the positive return on investment in the fact that the time I spend using Streak is much less than the time I would spend not using it.
• Streak has taught me the importance and ease of mail merges, since nothing else out there was as seamless to start with.
