SalesforceIQ is a perfect CRM to start with and get your organization used to tracking customer contact. It was an easy setup and well adopted. It allowed us to rollout completely in just 30 days. We have seen a large increase in our ability to communicate. It may be lacking in some items if you already have a tracking method but was the perfect starting point for us.

  1. It helps automate your marketing campaigns - send emails, does automated follow-up, creates leads directly into the CRM
  2. Helps you track the performance of your marketing campaign
  3. Its a cost-effective tool
  4. Their integration with salesforce and Hubspot is missing, will require you to do it manually
  5. Their email editor is quite basic with many must-have designing features missing

Cons
Salesforce
  • SalesforceIQ has some reporting items that are a little harder to easily uncover but I have found work arounds or manually created reporting to get that information, such as number of times a salesperson was at a location.
  • Some of the upgrade items I would like to see are available in salesforce sales cloud that allow easier automation for marketing.

  1. Has a lot of scope for improvement in terms of email editor and lead management
  2. Out-of-the-box reporting features should also be made available
  3. Should provide integration with other software
  4. The user experience could be improved
  5. The tool can be made a little faster to operate
  6. Workflows, land page, and form options can be improved

The customer support team is active and reverts promptly to support requirements. However, most of the requirements takes a lot of time to get fixed.

We selected SalesforceIQ over Insightly because of the email automation they offered. Their app also seemed to be a little more robust. I highly recommend a trial before you make a decision. The trial with SalesforceIQ is what sold us on the product
