Likelihood to Recommend Here are some cases where Ontraport is well suited : - When writing emails, you can easily access to preview, manage the changes and go back to what you did before - When using automations, if there's an error, you can go back to a previous version of it. There are also some super tools that allows to see where a clients is on an automation without having to go through the all automation. It is less appropriate when you are several colleague that are addressing an issue on an email/automation as it doesn't allows you to be multiple person on the item.
Read full review In my opinion, Salesflare is an excellent CRM for small businesses. It includes everything a small business needs to manage leads, deals, and contacts in one convenient location. When a client needs more information or something done, I can quickly record it in their account—perfect for B2B SaaS and small businesses selling B2B in general.
Read full review Pros Dashboards for our daily stats. The email follows up and broadcasts are simple and easy. Sales and marketing can now see the impact they have working together. Nobody can point finger anymore. They have the best customer support. I can't tell you how many times they have walked me through the problems that I created. Amazing email inboxing.

Stellar customer support: response is quick and the team really goes out of their way to solve your specific problems. Up to setting up custom solutions for you. Read full review Cons Wish they had more options for their forms. Would really like to use multi-step forms. A lot of times their forms load slowly on the website. Would like to see them speed up their services. Their broadcasting options are legacy. There are better options out there for sending broadcast messages. Read full review It works wonderfully as a CRM for freelancers, consultants and small teams but feels like it would become more difficult to integrate with larger teams Sometimes have issues with email syncing with missing emails or having to reconnect my email to Salesflare Emails are sent from the app using their own servers, I would prefer to send via my own email system (Gsuite) for better delivery Read full review Likelihood to Renew My client was already using Ontraport and had a decent investment in the tool. As soon as we turn around the revenue situation with my client's products, we will be ditching OAP immediately, despite the significant re-implementation cost we are going to face moving to a new system. I am part of a high-end, professional marketing group, and the overwhelming sentiment with these other professionals is that one should run away from this as fast as humanly possible. I thought their words were just ungrounded opinion, and I deeply regret that I did not heed them more closely before sinking still more time and effort into OAP.
Read full review Usability The software is just easy to use. The UI is fairly intuitive. The help system is pretty good. I find it is pretty quick to get my work completed and if I don't document my things well, I can always figure out how I did something when I need to make changes. When I have a problem the tech support is easy to deal with and when things need to get escalated they are resolved quickly.
Read full review 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.
Read full review Performance Most of the time OP runs fine. But I've had to submit more support tickets this year do to messages, seq.'s or rules not running correctly. Also experienced slow response times moving in and around OP.
Read full review Support Rating The techs are reasonably savvy, highly courteous and want to do right by their customers. Unfortunately, the product they are supporting is so deeply flawed that there's only so much they can do when your legitimate business requirements are simply not supported.
Read full review 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!

Read full review Alternatives Considered Task management was the main thing that separated ONTRAPORT for me. Keeping things accountable. As well, I felt the campaign builder was slicker, and that the contact management was more robust. Custom fields are very customizable.
Read full review Salesflare does its own thing compared to the others I've tried. It's unique even though it shares many of the main features a CRM should have.
Salesforce Lightning is amazing and feature-packed but can often get overwhelming depending on your use case. I never experience any slight lag or load times with Salesflare. Lightning can sometimes hang depending on your browser etc.
Read full review Scalability With the new lower priced options, it's now easier for newer businesses to start with a more basic version and upgrade as they need more features.

It's part of our operations and saves us time, but we've never tracked the financial impact. Read full review ScreenShots
