Read full review Pros 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 Read full review 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. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review 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 Read full review Likelihood to Renew -2 for Its cost and +8 for the need of tracking of leads and monitoring of team.
Read full review Usability There is a learning curve that caused a slow adoption but overall the UI looks great and the support is helpful when there is an issue that you need to be addressed. The marketplace integrations (developed by Pipedrive) could definitely use some work as they're not as seamless as we'd hoped for!
Read full review Support Rating 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.

Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.

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.
Read full review Return on Investment Pipedrive has had an extremely positive impact on our overall business objectives. More specifically, the return on investment has been magnified by the fact that it is fairly inexpensive. I can recall 2-3 conversations which prompted my boss and myself to note how convenient Pipedrive is. Like most companies, it can often feel like we are spinning many plates at once. Even when our team is not able to connect in person every day, our projects are capable of progressing. Pipedrive has allowed us to press forward where we (normally) would have lacked the communication necessary in doing so. Read full review 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. Read full review ScreenShots
