Reliable and cost effective platform

4.0 7 months ago

Comments: Overall experience is great. it is providing efficient services by automation our sales. I also appreciate the way it lets us track the sales activities.

Pros:

I really like the way it keeps the sales sequences and automates them. Making sales pipelines is not a big task on Freshsales. I would say this is one of the best CRM platforms am using. Moreover, the synchronizing system of the calendar works amazingly, if I talk about the pricing of Freshsales it is cost-effective and affordable product.

Cons:

To be honest it is working perfectly, before some months I was having some issues with add-ons but after getting assistance from its customer support I resolved the issue easily, so yes now there are no cons to write here.

Freshsales has gained the insights of food retail managers.

4.0 8 months ago

Comments: Despite the challenges with reporting, my overall experience with Freshsales has been positive. The platform has effectively streamlined our sales processes, from capturing leads to closing deals. The centralized contact management system ensures that all customer interactions are logged and easily accessible, greatly improving our team’s collaboration and efficiency. The user interface is clean and easy to navigate, making it user-friendly for our team. The automation and AI-driven insights have significantly boosted our sales performance, making Freshsales a valuable tool for our business.

Pros:

As a manager of a small food retail business, I found Freshsales’ lead management and automation features incredibly useful. The intuitive lead scoring and automated follow-up system helped us prioritize high-potential leads, maintaining consistent communication with minimal manual effort. Freddy AI’s predictive insights have notably enhanced our conversion rates, which is crucial for our growth.

Cons:

However, the complexity of the reporting and analysis tools was a significant drawback. Customizing reports to fit our specific business needs proved to be challenging, especially without advanced technical skills. This complexity often made it difficult to quickly generate actionable insights, hindering our ability to make timely and informed decisions.

Freshsales Review

3.0 last year

Pros:

It is a great first CRM when you are a small company just starting your business and growing your database. I started using it in my previous role in a very small startup and it did the job for a while, the knowledge base management is great and quite intuitive. Would definitely recommend for a small budget and small startup.

Cons:

Some of the features were very tricky, the layout is not very intuitive and it is quite hard to see all your information. Once again, if you try to scale or actually do forecast/sales pipeline review, I'm not sure it is the best tool

4.0 7 months ago

Comments: Overall Freshsales is a great CRM tool for a new startup to base its sales department.

Pros:

It has a great feature list. Right from adding contacts/leads to the platform, managing lead lifecycle through tasks and creating deals to incentivise the cycle, its a very easy to use platform.

Cons:

The pricing for Freshsales has to be revised as per Indian Geography. Also some basic features like Campaign Management for automated outreach is not present.

Meyann Fresh sales review

4.0 last year

Comments: My overall experience with Fresh sales is moderately satisfying and helpful, it was very in boosting thv overall sales process

Pros:

Pricing, it's affordable and convient for buyers

Cons:

My least like about Fresh sales is the part of trying hard to convince the buyer to put their money in, I believe the value of the product should be able to be convincing that it will solve the needs of the buyer
