Likelihood to Recommend

I think that it's great for anyone trying to develop a CRM platform or a process management platform very quickly or by themselves. It is quite affordable and easy to use, so for some fairly basic applications it is a great tool/place to start. For very advanced applications where there is a lot of data, I think that it would be not as well suited.
