Easier to use than Autorask or Manage. Less expensive than Salesforce while still delivering a lot of functionality, 8n a slightly less elegant fashion.

We were using QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for a very long time. However, the software is archaic and dated. Method allows us to step into the 21st century. We now have much more online / automated interactions with our customers. We like that Method also lets us customize a great deal of the software to our exact needs and wants.

We chose Method over Salesforce because we felt as though they were not tailored to our size of the company and our specific needs overall. They offered many things that we found very appealing but at the end of the day, we knew that with most importantly we needed a CRM to integrate with our accounting software more than anything else.

We chose Method:CRM for the QuickBooks integration. It was important for us to have integrations that allowed us to view payments, organize our contacts, and manage our sales force. There were some learning curves, however, such as creating activities, leads, customers and making sure our payments were being logged appropriately. I do wish that payments would be added to the calendar automatically so that the sales rep could view and make a phone call letting them know their invoice is due.

Method is by far the easiest of all platforms. It brings a lot of great features that Salesforce has as well as email campaign features like constant contact, all in one. The only thing I would add would be more reporting and custom report capability.

Method is really designed for those who use QuickBooks. I like there is no cost to integrate with the software. Like other crm the user would have to an additional to integrate, but all features of QuickBooks would not able to integrate especially payments. Method has all features accessible to the user and there is an option if you want it included for all staff.

I believe that Method:CRM is far superior to Salesforce and the others mentioned above for the following reasons:
  1. It is scalable and affordable.
  2. It doesn't take an engineering degree to learn how to use it.
  3. The price book entry procedure is so simple!
  4. You don't go bankrupt getting the system online. Method:CRM is so simple!!!

I was not a part of the selection process of Method:CRM but I was part of the decision to cancel the service and I was a part of the decision-making group that found the alternative solution to what Method was doing for us. The thing that set the others apart from Method was the ease of use. I did not have to spend a plethora of time teaching staff about the program. With Method, it took a very long time to get an employee up to speed within it and there was no way I could teach them how to develop solutions for clients within it.

I love the infinite customization available in Method CRM. No other CRM offers as much ROI and flexibility of design of the user interface. However Method's built-in feature set doesn't include many of the extras that might be found in a more niche product. Furthermore, while Method's deep integration with QuickBooks is a strength, it is also a limitation because so much customization may be necessary to add features that go beyond the accounting & CRM-centric buildout of Mehtod.
