"A very powerful CRM at surprisingly affordable price"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Everything about Freshsales is great. Right from onboarding and setting up the account to using the advanced features, the UX is seamless. Freshsales has some unique features which we found extremely valuable and provided us with key insights that helped in closing mode deals. To name a few: in app email notifications, website visitor analytics and segmentation and automatic profile enrichment. -

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

There is nothing to dislike about Freshsales. Although I would love to see the functionality where follow-up emails can be automated based on prospect's behavior. This can help Sales teams save lot of time.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

At Saleslift, we get a lot of incoming prospects. We use Freshsales to manage the pipeline, identify our ideal potential customers, engage in conversation with them and convert them as our customers.

"The advantages of using Freshsales as our CRM"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Having used MS Dynamics for the best part of 2 years, our experience with Freshsales CRM has been excellent. From out of the box, all of our salespeople were able to use it to full advantage. Ease of implementation, user adoption and visibility are all exceptional. The salespeople love its ability to capture email threads effortlessly.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

The only drawback is associated with deal notes. There is a bit of confusion over where notes should reside; with the client contact, client or deal. I am sure this is something we can resolve by defining it internally.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

Firstly, we had a challenge around tracking and expediting our pipeline. Freshsales give us great visibility and reporting without demanding hours of non-sales input from sales staff. Secondly, we had a challenge in forecasting for finance and resource planning, Freshsales enables us to predict and manage pipeline very accurately.

"What Freshsales does for my business"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

I like how it streamlines the entire sales process and has the ability to be flexible through custom fields so that the application aligns with your company.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I dislike that you cannot create custom colours so that the freshsales application matches my company colours.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

Freshsales allows you to save time on manual admin work. It has the ability to auto log calls and emails so you can focus on selling. It also has a key feature which can pull up the leads linkedin, facebook, and twitter which gives me the ability to put a personal touch on things.

"SalesForce to Fresh Sales "
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Fresh Sales has twice the amount of features than Salesforce and the difference in support is astronomical! Also the staff at Fresh are the most helpful people you could wish to work with!

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I struggle to find an issue with he system having used it for the last 4/5 months however one suggestion would be to be able to make the telephone calls through an ipad.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

Fresh allows our team of 14 telesales staff to keep upto date on any contact our clients have had with the business. Whether this be via email/telephone or notes.

"Best Marketing Automation and CRM Software"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

We moved from SalesForce to FreshSales and it has proven to be an excellent decision. FreshSales is easy to use, highly customizeable to our business processes, and pulls all our marketing efforts together to provide insights into our target market that we weren't aware of before. Customer service has also been outstanding. Don't waste your time and money with the 'big boys' in this space - they overcharge and give you less value.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

It can be a little quirky in terms of adhering to the 'rules' of the database and reporting still has a ways to go, but the FreshSales team is quickly making strides.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have gone from a marketing database only, to a full CRM that allows us to track specific results of our marketing efforts and provides a way to analyze the 'big data' of our leads, pulling the most active, interested ones to the top.

"It fits right in!"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

As a Project management for a Software company here in Brazil, I needed a platform that could be used along my CRM, and I can tell that the tools from Freshworks are incredible. They work well in a syncronization mode that enable us to keep our Leads coming in and converting while we take great care of our existing customers. There is a transition phase where our lead will turn into a customer and the score system does it a good job on pinpointing the most interested lead. The layout is fresh, like everything in the suite. I can wait to see what´s next. Great work guys!

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

A Dashboard that will give more control of our data is needed.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

Creating and converting new leads.

"Perfect CRM"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

The simplicity of the interface. I feel that even someone who has never used CRM software before could easily get to grips with how it works without much assistance. It's very intuitive. I also like the simplicity of uploading and managing CSV files and how contacts link to social media. And of course, the customer service is outstanding. Any issue resolved hastily

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

Maybe a few more tutorials/videos of more advanced features

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

The organisation and management of lists of contact names and numbers and the opportunity to mass email them. Freshsales has made this problem much more manageable

"Great company!"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

The Task Reminders and Email tracking are some of my favorite features. We don't use FS to our full advantage yet and have discussed learning more about it. Wondering if FS offers a webinar course.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

it's hard to easily/quickly find your past call recordings. You have to search through your entire call history to find a call recording to review it rather than simply looking up the phone number.

"Awesome tool for startups "
What do you like best about Freshsales?

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I don't dislike anything. One suggestion would be to able to have multiple owners for a single lead.

Streamlined sales process. Being a B2C company, we have sales people across cities. Now we can view everything at one place

"Freshsales "
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Freshsales makes it incredibly easy to automate the tasks that our sales team encounters every day. From keeping up with old contacts, to importing and updating new leads, we've always been able to quickly control and delegate the sales efforts of our team with Freshsales.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I appreciate Freshsales effort to introduce email marketing campaigns but I believe that there is still some room for improvement from a use-ability standpoint.

What problems is Freshsales solving and how is that benefiting you?

FlashFrame has struggled since its inception to market its services, wading through a complicated marketplace with an eclectic group of contacts to find potential buyers and navigate strange relationships . Freshsales's endless customization has enabled us to sift the noise and easily manage contacts with complicated accounts and an ever changing group of contacts.
