You'll Love Velocify For Specific Functions
Pros
- Velocify affords me the ability to customize reports of very specific data points.
- I can create specific views that enable me to stay on top of an individual's daily activity.
Cons
- Velocify would be well served to create a more robust email drip campaign platform.
- Velocify could revamp their dashboards and prioritized views our individuals work out of daily. It's rather overwhelming when working with a lot of leads. Adding interactive graphics - calendars, easy to view alerts, etc would be great. (Big Purple Dot does this well)
Return on Investment
- Velocify allows us to get granular with our data, which helps manage employee efficiency.

Velocify vs the others.
Pros
- As every company operates differently, Velocify has thought of every option.
- Outstanding service.
Cons
- I believe they have nailed all of the functional capabilities.
Return on Investment
- With the volume of leads purchased, my company couldn't operate efficiently without Velocify.
Velocify--Great for front end lead conversion, not much else
Pros
- The simplicity of the system setup is relatively easy.
- The built in speed to lead Dialer worked very well and distributed leads accurately.
- The help and support area was easy to navigate.
- No limitation on numbers of fields assisted with our need for granularity.
Cons
- The canned reporting is not a one size fits all, and therefore customization of reports was needed. However, the ability to filter different criteria in and/or boolean was non-existent.
- Customer Service and personable touch was poor at almost every level. We were with Velcoify for 2 years and we had to repeatedly explain our business to them with each issue.
- Fields were not able to be shared across different areas, which proved to be problematic with different reporting needs.
- Validation was only added to the system in the last few months, and this was very basic; because there were not specific security items for each role, this made our data integrity very shaky.
- Creating emails and duplicating statuses, etc was labor intensive. There was no ability to clone existing emails, status, actions.
- Drip campaigns were not available.
- Vendor posting proved problematic at times, and the fact that anyone could enter anything into a drop down (again, validation) proved problematic as well.
Return on Investment
- Faster lead conversion lead us to higher potential for "first school wins" philosophy.
- Negative return on time spent maintaining Velocify. Because manual reporting was needed and much had to be done outside of the system, there was a monetary loss of time because of this.
- Predictability was near impossible for us, and the fact that we had to purchase an email automation system because Velocify did not do anything we needed was a negative ROI for our business.
