"A great catalog of services with a wide variety of customization options"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Their services are fully integrated to offer a full picture solution. Having context cues is incredibility helpful when analyzing a prospect and their knowledge of our services. Integrating the caller within the CRM makes it very easy for new agents to be trained and accounted for in terms of workload. The FreshChat functions is perhaps one of the best looking options to engage page visitors out there.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

Some of their services force into a higher tier to integrate with the full solution. While it is understandable that they want to make money of your services, some of the functionality (like integrations with their own services) limitations feel forced.

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

We were looking for a CRM that included the whole tool set of chat, guide and Support into one. Fresh Sales now lets us coordinate our efforts more effectively by having a clearer picture of the needs that the customer at the other end of the line has.

"Cheap and affordable CRM with all the bells and whistles"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

It is a complete package. I can do email sequence and every other thing any CRM could possibly do. Also, it has great linkages with other Freshworks software, which truly makes it a great software.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I would ideally like the support to improve a bit more. Faster responses would be good.

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

I am solving the problem of managing all my leads, managing deals. Also, using it for email outreach and so forth.

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

User friendly UI. Its very easy tp update the data. This motivates my sales team to actually work on the crm and keep it updated. Reports and Analytics is great. Also the integration with Freshcaller and Freshdesk works like a charm.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

API integration is not great. I cant update a contact with a single API request. I need to have the Freshsales ID to update the contact which I can not maintain at my side. This is the most basic feature available in almost every CRM.

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

We have been using Freshsales for somewhat more than a year and experience has been nothing but great.

There is nothing that I dislike at the moment

"Great and Easy to Use!"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

We love that there are so many integrations with Freshsales. The CRM is also very intuitive and I like how leads are incorporated (instead of just contacts). It took me no time at all to learn it and get up and running.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

I wish the deal section had its own page, like a company or contact has, not just a slide out window. Not exactly sure why this isn't a thing.

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

We use it to demo our integration with Freshsales. Our users love how easy the integration connects with Freshsales and we always recommend using it!

"Easy to use CRM platform at the right price"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Easy to use and provides quick ways to see communication with leads and existing customers. It's very simple for us to enter a lead and convert to a customer. Also like the integration with other third party products.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

Easier to use workflows and better integration with O365. Pipeline view gets a little difficult to use when there are a large number of deals.

"Lot of capabilities at an affordable price"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Freshsales accommodates a lot of tasks on a single screen. It gives you a deep idea about the customer and helps us take actions faster. The workflows help us automate our tasks and help save a lot of our time. Our sales staff has been more productive since we have switched to Freshsales. The interface is also very simple to understand. I highly recommend Freshsales CRM to everyone.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

We are a real estate firm and we use lot of different social sites for Lead Generation. Especially Facebook, but Freshsales still doesn't have a direct integration with Facebook Leads. We have to subscribe to third party providers like Zapier for sync Facebook Leads on real-time basis. That's the only thing I dislike about Freshsales.

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

We have been using freshsales CRM to digitalize our sales and marketing efforts. It helps us to coordinate with the team easily and keep everyone updated about the leads and contacts.

"Freshsales Taught An Old Dog Some New Tricks"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

Functionality, easy to learn. I really like having all my leads/contacts in one place, with all their information included.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

Sync issues with email. Often a lead/contact shows no conversation history, despite there being multiple emails that should be synced.

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

I returned to a sales position after a few years out of the business. I had never used a CRM before. Freshsales was easy to learn and has a lot of great functions. The benefits I have realized are greater organization, streamlined information, and a great way to track leads/contacts (no more pencil & paper!).

"Excellent application for sales, customer support, and more - all integrated"
What do you like best about Freshsales?

That you can see the communication across different channels. If we have a contact that comes in through the chat, or sends an email to support team, they will see if there are other conversations that happened on different channels - like with the sales team for example. The fact that this is not a required feature of every sales/support software today is purely due to the difficulty in designing something that needs such variation in user experience and also requires clear organization of a large amount of data. They do a wonderful job.

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

The inbox and email templates in freshsales could be improved. They are not as organized as the rest of the system.

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

We send thousands of emails as part of recruiting vendors to work with us, and we also have hundreds of thousands of customers contacting us. Freshsales keeps it all organized and allows us to do everything we need - from bulk emails, to creating individual support tickets (using freshdesk connection), to easily segmenting the different contacts - there are a lot of benefits.

What do you like best about Freshsales?

1. Delegating tasks to the team, Monitoring and tracking team activity & performance, Accuracy and increase of sales forecast and Identifying neglected contacts in the database

What do you dislike about Freshsales?

When deals are loaded onto the system and we add an expected close date. When we exceed the due date the deal automatically goes rotten. Is there not a way we can remove the rotten status as some deals do generally take longer than the expected close date.

Team tracking and performances at this stage as well as sales forecast. Also nice way to monitor reps pipeline.
