"Very Intuitive. Affordable. Easily Integrated. And a Managed Services Option That Changes the Game!"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Salesfusion is designed by marketers who, no doubt, have experienced the perils that many of us face with Marketing Automation. They have built a platform that is intuitive, affordable and easily integrated. The result? You are able to ramp up quickly. The native integration with most major CRMs alone is fantastic. Salesfusion truly delivers "enterprise grade" capabilities without the "complexity" of other marketing automation solutions. Their secret sauce? Their marketing concierge services - which literally "saves the day" for me. This enables me to consistently move the needle in my quest to deliver demand generation results. Did I mention unlimited phone and email support? I guess you can say - I'm a Salesfusion super-fan.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

I'm sure there's something. I just haven't encountered it yet! They have a good handle on their roadmap and keep me informed about upcoming feature / capabilities improvements. That's all I ask for.

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

I deliver against an "aggressive" marketing plan - ongoing weekly campaigns. A primary responsibility of mine is to deliver qualified MQLS that ultimately convert into Sales opportunities. We are now able to keep the funnel full (MQLS) and are adding advanced capabilities into our marketing practice to increase conversions. Senior management is more than satisfied that we are doing our jobs.

"Great product and great service!"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Salesfusion is always updating their product to enhance the user experience. It seems each update has a new feature or simpler set up that allows me to maximize the experience and increase my productivity. The features have become so easy to use, when I train others, they understand the functions in one meeting, rather than two or three meetings. Plus, Salesfusion keeps a great online library of resources and guides. Also, the customer service is top notch. My phone queries are nearly always answered and answered by a professional who can guide me to a solution, or provide within a couple of hours. If the first solution does not work, the team continues to work until I receive teh desired outcome.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

Sometimes on Google Chrome, the functionality ceases. Double-clicking items no longer loads until I reset my cache in the browser. Sometimes the terminology used for some of the features is a bit too technical and as a layman, I need help translating to meet my needs. However, this has become less of an issue as Salesfusion continues to rename some of its features and provide detailed descriptions in the update newsletters. The reporting is still tricky and required some database knowledge to be sure I include the correct fields to meet my needs.

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

I send emails to both our internal and external sales agents. We also host langing pages for events. We are in need of trackability of our email opens, clicks, and event activity. The tool has worked as a short-term solution for posting some of our required materials. We can be sure that the required materials will be delivered directly to the recipient through email communication.

"CASL Compliant Newsletter Tool that goes further with Analytics and Design Functionality in mind"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Look for product that is CASL Compliant? Look no further. SalesFusion 360 has it! It also sends the information back to your CRM with a seamless automation that took me a few minutes to setup. The analytics are out of the world. For example: You can find out who is searching what on you website, you can know when someone has opened a link to a particular newsletter within a dashboard. Looking for a new newsletter template for a campaign? Well, Salesfusion has made it very easy for you to select from over 500+ templates to select from - Looking for a Responsive design? Yes - they got it too. Can't go wrong, hence we are very satisfied with this product.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

As with any type of new software, you will need to learn the in's and out's of the product. Though I was able to self-learn the product, I do recommend that you complete the goto classes that are provided.

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

CASL Compliant with Subscribe/Unsubscribe Functionality (tracking) and Newsletter Responsive Design.

"Salesfusion SaaS-based Marketing Automation Software for Business"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

- Excellent integration with the Infor (Saleslogix) CRM. - Provides great features such as the ability to segment groups of people to deliver more personalized messages. - Great reporting tools to measure the success of a marketing campaign and quickly evaluate what is working and what can be improved. - Easy to learn. - Superb customer support that responds to questions quickly and thoroughly.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

- Identifying and removing unneeded contacts (duplicates etc.) can be challenging, though some recently added features should help with this. - The WYSIWYG and HTML editor can be challenging to use for some content creators.

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

A huge benefit is the ability to measure the effectiveness of various marketing campaigns. Integration with CRM and the reporting tools are also major benefits.

"Fanatical support and customer focus"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Salesfusion has a very solid marketing automation platform, but what truly sets them apart is their focus on their customers' success. They have shown from the first contact through our entire relationship with them that they deeply care about their customers and want to make sure that we are successful with the platform. The onboarding process is quite comprehensive as well. We've been a salesforce customer for 10 years, so the integration with Salesforce was a critical aspect of our decision making criteria. They do releases on a fairly regular basis, and have a customer idea wall where they collect comments, ideas and more from their customers to help improve the product. Their training area, in addition to SalesFusion University (on-site training) are excellent. I love their responsive templates, as well. :)

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

There are a couple of features that are lacking, but there is a new version of some of these coming out soon so hopefully this will get remedied.

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

We needed to replace a vendor who was underperforming, implement new marketing automation processes, and most of all, start lead scoring and running nurture campaigns. Our previous vendor was very hard to work with and unresponsive when we needed help, and the tool was archaic and inflexible. With Salesfusion, we are able to run comprehensive nurture campaigns for both customers and prospects, get great insights and analytics about our prospects' behavior, and generally run as a much more efficient marketing organization. We're a lean team, so getting the right tools in place was one of my first priorities. In addition, they have an excellent email plugin that allows 1-to-1 emails from sales rep to prospect to be tracked and recorded in Salesforce. All in all, I highly recommend Salesfusion.

"Salesfusion is the only tool you need"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Salesfusion allows you to do everything you need to reach your target audience and track your campaigns. The platform is user friendly; even the technologically-challenged marketer can create comprehensive, effective campaigns. In addition, the Salesfusion team provides support, if needed, and is continually upgrading the platform's functionality based on feedback from the users. Definitely the way to go if you're looking for an email platform.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

Nothing. My experience with Salesfusion has always been positive.

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

The platform provides detailed reports which allow our Marketing Department to study the statistics and trends for our campaigns and fine-tune our strategy in response to the findings. In addition, Salesfusion is willing to work with its customers to solve problems and ways to improve their platform or add functionality in response to customer needs and industry best practices.

"Attending the Fusion conference was a very worthwhile experience"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

The best part of the Fusion conference was meeting that people that work there. They all are highly motivated people and it was a pleasure to meet them in person. As a reseller for Salesfusion, we came away with many awesome ideas for sales, marketing. What do you dislike? It's hard to think of something we dislike, but perhaps the reason we haven't started our lead scoring process yet is that it was difficult to set up the rules for it and get a good understanding of how to track the scores and see them convert. We could use help in this area if anyone at SalesFusion has time to work with us on this! Recommendations to others considering the product I would fully recommend the 30 day risk-free trail. During the process, we had a chance to use the platform, fully integrated with our CRM, to run test campaigns from. We used it for a few email sends and tracked the results without ever being committed. This was a game changer in deciding which automation platform to choose. What business problems are you solving? What benefits have you realized? We are trying very hard to align the marketing and sales departments in our company. We've received a lot of ideas at the Fused conference and would like to start implementing some of the features we've seen such Social Listening and the Nurture Campaign Editor. I think using some of these new tools and diving deeper into the SF platform will help us to reach our goals of highly valuable MQLs that our sales team will be happy to receive.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

It's hard to think of something we dislike. Some areas of Salesfusion are so robust that it is difficult to set up, but I talked to our reseller trainer and he is taking the time to assist me with some one-on-one training. Thank you Andy!!

As a Sage CRM consultant I can't wait to start helping our customers with a fully integrated marketing system. It makes me happy that I can assist our customers with the best marketing automation software that I have ever come across. Sales and marketing teams will finally be able to work together to pull in qualified leads.

"B2B Technologies Looking to Align Sales & Marketing"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

The best part of SalesFusion are the people we work with through support and product questions. We receive answers immediately and the person helping us is interested in getting us to the end goal of the project and not just answering a one of question. Follow through is key and SF has mastered it.

"Salesfusion review"
What do you like best about SugarCRM?

Great product that is extremely robust, but my absolute favorites is how awesome their customer service is. Every single question is answered and they always follow up to make sure that you don't have any other issues. They host great events to make sure that you really are getting the most out of the system and they listen to how you would use the product so that you're using it to align with what your needs are.

What do you dislike about SugarCRM?

It's hard to come up with an answer because they are always open to hearing your feedback and constantly take those into consideration as they work to make a product that aligns to what their users are seeking.

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

We are getting better insight on how to clean our data so that we can really target the users who want to see our product and have the best potential to become customers. As well, for our existing customers, it's a great way to keep them engaged and in the know of our current activities.

I was not as much of a fan of the old UI but they have addressed the issue with the new interface.
