Pipedrive vs. SAP PPM

Pipedrive is a fantastic tool to help monitor and track lead generation and referral sources. It helps maintain accountability with the sales team and helps ensure that we are doing appropriate marketing to maintain a steady influx of cases. The weekly and quarterly sales reports that it can generate are incredibly helpful and insightful. They help inform us of what we need to focus on each quarter/year.

It's has all the functionality a proper CMMS tools required, it's act as a blueprint of what exactly all CMMS tools wants. All the features, costing, optimization, asset management all under one bucket. It's less appropriate for people who required simple UI, only some basic system or people with low budget. Because the cost for implementation is very high.

• Great visual visibility of the funnel plus easy to drag the deals across the stages
• The email integration that collects all relevant communication (also through the possibility of adding a deal-specific Pipedrive address on BCC)
• The integration with Pandadoc, which we use a lot, so that Pipedrive keeps a really handy overview of the documents we have sent out / which have been signed

• Enabling manufacturing team to work together.
• Easy to track project process.
• Project data analytics.
• Good reporting tool.

• Showing the customers name on the pipeline page. Right now I can only get it to show the brand name twice. I wish it would replace the second brand name with the main point of contact.
• Better reporting tools. Their reporting tools are not easy to pick up. I've spent time trying to figure it out and it isn't something I can pick up on quickly.
• Better training options. I wish I had a personal trainer to walk me through the best way to use Pipedrive so I can get the most out of it.

• Major issue while using SAP PPM is it's UI.
• Things are way too complicated and difficult to understand.

It's very detailed oriented but the UI is difficult to use. It requires proper training and good people to handle day to day activities. The functionality that SAP provides like, Asset downtime, cost optimization, settling of cost at work order level and the moving it to related cost centre, this defines the actual CMMS system which is very useful.

Between quick video tutorials and having very quick feedback from their support teams, it is one of the main reasons I would recommend Pipedrive. It is critical, especially when setting up the platform to meet your companies needs, that a solid support team like Pipedrive has is there to make the transition easier.

Experiment is the only way to start

I much prefer the interface of Pipedive when compared to Zoho. Much more user friendly and the team is always readily available when we need them. Pipedrive allowed for many custom integrations to be added, as Zoho was a tad more complicated to manipulate. We would not go back to Zoho in any case.

SAP PPM is a stable solution that has a unique power for the user to manage a complex project without any problem and easy project planning and resource planning capability is amazing. The SAP PPM interface is easy to learn and start manipulating the product without much training.
