Who Buys & Uses Copper CRM

Pros

  • User-friendly interface with minimal learning curve
  • Seamless integration with Google Workspace
  • Effective lead and contact tracking and organization

Cons

  • Limited flexibility and robustness in automation and integrations
  • Reporting and dashboard features lack comprehensiveness
  • Inadequate filtering capabilities within reports

Copper meets our small nonprofits needs.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Copper CRM to track contacts associated with most aspects of our organization. The main reason we chose a CRM, and Copper specifically, was to track relationships (e.g., contact information, email exchanges, notes from meetings, whether they are subscribed to our newsletter (run by Mailchimp)) in a centralized location and so that these details can be accessed by several staff members and outlive any individual connections made by a staff member who might cycle out of the organization.

Pros

  • Synch with our e-news service (Mailchimp).
  • Track email interactions.
  • Include privacy tools, e.g., setting an email about payroll as private.
  • Send the same email to several folks, but with a personalized intro.

Cons

  • Meeting notes and other notes don't allow for formatting or embedded links.
  • The email has many options, but it doesn't seem to allow customization beyond merge fields.

Return on Investment

  • We haven't analyzed ROI.
