GreenRope

GreenRope is great as a recruitment tool when we have a large candidate pool and just want to do one big email blast. It is also helpful in terms of business development.

GreenRope is great at helping small business owners use one software instead of 10. Instead of a scheduler, email marketer, affiliate tracker, etc., it's all in one spot. GreenRope is not as well known, so for someone that needs Salesforce or Infusionsoft to be a part of their sales conversation or brand, this may not fit.

If you are a small company looking to get going with a web based crm, that integrated easily into your website, landing pages and estore then this is a great place to start.

Simple enough to get going quickly, powerful enough that I expect to use it for many years to come. I have been pleased with my experience from the beginning. Especially it is pleasing when you call up for help. You just get the help you need. All of it!

The price point and full featured application of GreenRope makes it perfect for small and medium sized businesses. GreenRope is an excellent alternative to some of the higher priced, better known CRM systems (Infusionsoft, AWeber, Ontraport, etc.). If you have specific requirements for your industry or business, GreenRope support will help to ensure that you get set up properly with what you need.

Right from the beginning, GreenRope's staff have been extremely helpful with getting us setup and answering all of our questions. In addition to chat support, the documentation provided within GreenRope itself is detailed and easily accessible. GreenRope is also really good about letting you know that they are available - and how to contact them. My questions/requests are answered quickly, every time.

GreenRope is suited well for massive email marketing. It allows simple automation for communicating with potential customers. It's not as personal as sending individualized messages to people.

It is very feature-rich which can be a good thing, but all those features are not very intuitive and take time to learn. As I mentioned, the platform is customizable but adds complexity to the software. If you want just a simple CRM system or just send out blast emails than GreenRope is probably overkill for you. I think it is more aimed at B2B than casual users.

GreenRope is a very comprehensive CRM Software. GreenRope is consistently adding new features to engage your customers and prospects. At times it can be very intimidating for first-time users with all of its features but GreenRope offers many webinars to assist in learning how to use the software and features.

There's no such thing as a CRM that doesn't have its complications and headaches. I have tried a lot of them and ultimately like GreenRope heads and shoulders above the rest. GreenRope is particularly suited for small to medium sized businesses who do not have the budget or need for a SalesForce install, or the engineers necessary to make other CRM software work. If you want a more sophisticated system than an email responder like MailChimp or Constant Contact, you need to have a CRM. So ask yourself what you are looking to automate in your business and then go for a solution that has the ability to scale with you. A CRM is a commitment to long term growth and automation, and you should see it as an investment -- both in cash and in time. I don't have a programmer and have managed to get a lot of functionality out of GreenRope (all DIY). And I'm always adding to it with no limits in sight.

Greenrope is a terrific tool for any business that does a range of marketing tasks (email, drip campaigns, snail mail, social, direct marketing, online selling), lots of small projects, and shares and manages customer data among sales (both inside and outside) and marketing staff. In addition to using Greenrope across all my business groups, we have recommended Greenrope to quite a few of our clients, many of whom have implemented it. We always suggest that they compare to Infusionsoft and Salesforce/Hubspot, and Greenrope does very well in the comparison. For a small business where cash flow is critical, Greenrope makes more sense than its competitors (Infusionsoft, Salesforce +Hubspot) because the cost to implement is lower and there is a comparatively lower cost-of-ownership. If a company primarily deploys a large outside sales force and does little online marketing, then I'd recommend Salesforce over Greenrope. If a company is primarily engaged in large project management situations that involve outside parties in addition to employees, Greenrope would be less suited. But otherwise, Greenrope has been one of our most exciting software finds. I also have tremendous appreciation for the Greenrope team. They are supportive, engaging, and just plain smart. Inquiries are answered very quickly, suggestions are always welcomed. For small business owners, Greenrope's support is a big plus.

I feel GreenRope is particularly suited for a multi-user environment, such as team selling or where lead generation and lead follow up are separate divisions. I suggest that anyone looking into using GreenRope factor in the time for training on the system, it's great when you can invest in full use of the system but without that you are limited to the basics.

I would simply go over your existing tools and apps for CRM, sales, and marketing automation/email marketing, and ask to be shown how and where GreenRope replaces those things or if it does. Every business process is different.

I would find out if the benefits of GreenRope are what you're looking for. We heavily researched companies offering an online cloud style CRM; GreenRope was the best fit for our needs.

Well Suited: From small to large companies that work with complex or multiple demographics needing multiple layers to segregate client data.

I highly recommend GreenRope to anyone with a small business who needs to leverage their time.

GreenRope works best if you are not interested in things like tracking the pages your user visits and applying the necessary campaigns based on the visits by known contacts to those pages. It is a great general auto marketing program. I would say that the benefit / cost ratio makes it worth fitting into your marketing plan.

For small companies, GR is a very solid all purpose solution. Well-priced with exceptionally good service. For medium or larger enterprises, the clunky email feature would most likely be too limiting for large volumes of multi-faceted communications.

It is easy to tailor it for specific industries, creating custom Contact Fields and then searching on those fields.

GreenRope is complex and complicated. The user interface is not very intuitive. Groups make this software invaluable for managing our clients' clients, which is why we choose the software.

It seems to do everything I need.

GreenRope is great for any company that networks with other professionals and has many contacts.

GreenRope is well suited for the management of large groups of contacts.

It's great for creating a centralized database for your entire organization, especially if you are an entrepreneur or small business owner who doesn't have enough hands/bodies to do everything that needs to be done. GreenRope once set-up with your workflows can be like an automated worker (set-up your e-mail campaigns, groups, workflows, and triggers and forget about it until it's time to update them or revise).

Key questions to ask:

• Is the website builder visual with drag and drop based or difficult to learn?
• Does it integrate with Google Calendars without data being public?
• What parts of the system auto-populate in the CRM Record?
• What are the best practices for making the most use of the system from a functional perspective if you are a solopreneur?

Many times I have to repeat the issue several times before the person understands correctly. There was also an instant where support was not available when help was needed, had to wait for a response and it was a business day.

Not that I can tell. They only thing with us was the very long signup forms we had to produce.
