Pros:

Neatly organized and friendly application. The most liked feature is the chat support team.

The only thing that is kinda confusing especially to non-technical person is on integrating with third-party tools. Most of it needs to be connected with Zapier which is again another subscription.

Great Starter CRM for New Users

5.0 8 months ago

Pros:

Very easy to enter new contacts into the system, or to do a bulk import. Very Easy to search for contacts via the search query, including custom fields. You can select multiple contacts at the same time and edit their information in a multiselect format. Very easy to create custom columns that will enable you to organise the information that you need.

Cons:

Not the best with organising tasks automatically or checking for overlapping tasks.They do not have a lead generation tool in the form of a lead capture technology or widget.Does not have an email marketing integration like more modern Real Estate CRM's

Great for efficiency & simplicity

5.0 8 months ago

Comments: I’m really pleased with the improved efficiency we’ve achieved by switching to Pipedrive and I can’t see us moving away anytime soon.

Pros:

It’s incredibly easy to move data from your old CRM and set up your pipelines. Even easier to manage opportunities at every stage. The alerts, activities and send from Pipedrive features are great for keeping organised and the forecasting function is decent too.

Cons:

It is geared around the sales process/kanban view so can be a little limiting when using it as a hybrid marketing & sales CRM. The insights dashboard building area is good but it doesn’t allow you to create bespoke charts/tables for every possible data point (fair enough for the price point).

Alternatives Considered: monday CRM and monday.com

Reasons for Choosing Pipedrive: I inherited Insightly from a previous employee and it was a bit of a mess; we needed to simplify the sales process and get a much clearer view of our pipeline and marketing/contact data. Pipedrive was the obvious choice.

Switched From: Insightly

Reasons for Switching to Pipedrive: Price, simplicity of setup and wide range of easy-to-implement integrations were the main standout benefits of Pipedrive.

The Worst CRM You'll EVER Use - Avoid Pipedrive At All Costs

1.0 4 months ago

Comments: Don't be a sucker and use it... I emailed the [sensitive content hidden] and you should as well. [sensitive content hidden]

Pros:

If you're looking for a CRM that requires you to REFRESH the page after VIRTUALLY EVERY ACTION, you've found the right CRM! TRY reaching them on live chat... yeah, you'll wait at least 90 mins. AVOID these people at all costs - a complete rip off.

Cons:

Nothing. Poorly designed without the ability to customize default fields.

Pipedrive Drives Positive CRM Experience

4.0 3 months ago

Comments: The support team via the chat service has been of great assistance. The thoroughness of the data one can compile for a sales prospect is very good.

Pros:

The calendar integrations with Google and Microsoft365. Ability to create templates for emailing.

Cons:

There is a reasonably steep learning curve, although the support website and the chat services are beneficial.

Alternatives Considered: Microsoft Outlook, Zoho CRM, Salesforce Sales Cloud and HubSpot CRM

Reasons for Switching to Pipedrive: Pricing and some familiarity with the product from a prior experience.

Simplicity. Implementation on your own without a need for an implementation agency.

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: I was very happy with using Pipedrive, it didn't require a 'consulting agency' to implement it, I was able to implement in a 100+ software development company.

Pros:

The simplicity. The UX and the UI. It's super easy to set up, even for a non-technical person.

Cons:

Reporting seemed to be pretty limited in what you are able to do. Some of the metrics you can only view in "this month" mode, and not everything you can see in a timeline to track it over time.

Alternatives Considered: Zoho CRM, Livespace, InStream CRM and HubSpot CRM

Reasons for Choosing Pipedrive: The switch was from the Free plan of HubSpot. The first paid tier had 5–10 seats included, while I only needed 3, so it didn't make sense to upgrade. So, we switched to Pipedrive.

Switched From: HubSpot CRM

Reasons for Switching to Pipedrive: The best UI and UX. It didn't feel that overwhelmed with all the features and stuff.

Pros:

Easy to use; Once you learn the basics, and terminology, Pipedrive is very practical.

The workflow when going through activities isn't too efficient. It involves a lot of tabs, and bouncing from object to task.

Great software for our start-up

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: We have been looking very closely at various CRM solutions. In the end, we opted for Pipedrive as the best software for a start-up and haven't regretted this decision for a second.

Pros:

The ease of use, the clarity, the many functions. The user interface is really easy to use and you can always find your way around.

Cons:

I am very satisfied with everything. The only thing is that sometimes integrations with other software are not possible because there is no predefined interface. You would have to be a customer of the largest CRM provider. But we hope that Pipedrive will continue to grow and that there will then be more predefined integrations.

Pros:

Pipedrive is very straightforward to use, the Pipedrive automation is the best it helps me automate my flow. When we started using it we loved it because it had fewer features than most competitors, but the features it had worked better.

Cons:

Limited filters- As comparison with other systems in market.

Very Useful Sales Tracking Software

4.0 last year

Comments: In its capacity as a customer relationship management (CRM) system for our sales staff, it has proven to be rather effective. Although rather elementary, the lead assignment workflow automation is quite accessible and user-friendly.

Pros:

Simple to navigate and modify to fit your needs. The majority of the description of features and abilities is written in straightforward English. Resources for understanding one's talents are readily available and simple to use. A thriving ecosystem for third-party app integration, allowing us to seamlessly bridge gaps between essential business tools (email, Teams, Zoom, etc.).

Cons:

In all honesty, I can't think of much that I dislike about Pipedrive. Its interface may benefit from some modernization as it now appears somewhat dull and uninspiring. There is no more information.

Solid Entry for CRM Market

4.0 4 months ago

Comments: Pipedrive has been a staple for our Business Development Team as we've expanded rapidly over the last few years. As we've built it out for our team's workflows, we've created a solid systems for maintaining prospect records and increasing efficiency of our team.

Pros:

The ease of use for a user new to a CRM has been great for our growing team. The ability to have people share prospects and notes with each other has helped our team learn from one another as well.

Cons:

Some of the integrations with external software can be a bit clunky. We've run a few zapier integrations and direct api integrations with other tools in our tech stack to build up our experience on the platform.

My Pipedrive Experience

4.0 5 months ago

Comments: Overall, my experience with Pipedrive has been positive. The visual pipeline makes it super easy to track where each deal stands, and I also appreciate the real-time reporting. On the downside, the mobile app isn’t as powerful as the desktop version.

Pros:

How intuitive and visual it is. The interface is super user-friendly, and you can see your entire sales pipeline at a glance. It’s like having a chessboard where each piece represents a sales opportunity, and you can easily move them from one stage to another. Plus, the task automation is a lifesaver; it saves you tons of time on repetitive tasks. And the real-time reports are awesome for knowing exactly how your sales are doing without having to do any complicated calculations. Overall, it makes managing sales a lot simpler and even a bit fun.

Cons:

It can get a bit pricey. While the interface is generally cool, it can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming with all the options and settings available. It takes a bit of time to get everything set up just the way you want it. Also, the mobile app isn’t as robust as the desktop version, so managing things on the app is awfull.

An excellent tool for small businesses looking to scale up

5.0 12 months ago

Comments: Overall a great tool i'd use often and recommend to others looking to streamline their business development and sales efforts - especially for small businesses who haven't used a CRM solution before.

Pros:

It's easy to set up. I love the visual pipeline (that we can customise) so we can track deal stages. Email marketing through pipedrive is simple too.

Cons:

Editing emails can be a pain - you need to save and go out and back in each time or we've sometimes found changes have been lost.

Cons:

Some small features are missing to further enhance the user experience such as being able to track assets.

Pipedrive Review

5.0 3 months ago

Pros:

Pipedrive is simple to use and doesn't require extensive reading to grasp how it works. They offer some wonderful tutorials to aid with anything that may arise. It's an excellent tool for anyone looking for something easy to use and inexpensive. The tools allow our small team to keep track of emails, leads, and lead stages all from a single dashboard. Pipedrive is designed specifically for sales professionals. The management reporting tools are there and improving every quarter, but Pipedrive stands out for its ease of use for salespeople.

Cons:

One disadvantage to using Pipedrive is that you have to pay extra to use some custom fields in the reports, and the fee can be rather high, especially if you want to unlock all of the features.

Pipedrive - A Valuable Sales Tool with Room for Technical Improvement

5.0 last year

Comments: Pipedrive has been a significant asset for our sales team, providing us with essential tools for managing our sales processes. However, there are areas where this platform could use some technical improvements. Pipedrive is a valuable sales management tool with a user-friendly interface and useful features. However, the platform's technical stability and performance could use some attention, especially when it comes to minimizing downtime.

Pros:

Pipedrive's interface is user-friendly and easy to navigate. The visual sales pipeline view simplifies deal tracking and management, making it accessible to both new and experienced team members. The email integration is incredibly useful, enabling us to track and sync our communications with specific deals, ensuring nothing gets overlooked.

Cons:

Pipedrive falls short in terms of technical stability. We've encountered occasional hiccups and downtime, which can be frustrating when working on critical tasks. These technical issues have led to interruptions in our workflow, and while they are not frequent, they do have an impact when they occur.
