Great, Value for Money Solution for a B2B

4.0 5 months ago

Comments: We were looking for a solution that would suit a B2B and were comparing various options against the features of Pardot and Hubspot. EngageBay came out as the most cost-effective solution that gave us most of the features but at a much more reasonable cost. We are happy with the choice of EngageBay for our business. Not only is it good value, but it is easy to use and the support is better than their competitors (including some of the market leaders which I have experienced first hand).

Pros:

It does everything we need at a much more reasonable cost than than the market-leading marketing platforms and CRMs. Also, the interface is much easier to use and far more intuitive than some of the market leaders, eg. SalesForce/Pardot. The support team are responsive and will answer any questions which is helpful particularly in the set up phase. We are based in Australia, so sometimes there is a time lag but it has not caused us any issues to date.

Cons:

There are a few missing features which would seem to be obvious, eg. not being able to sort on every column of data or only having the client's first name listed in some places when having both names would be more helpful or not having the ability to insert an email link into their templates. However, these can be worked around.

EngageBay: Simple, Affordable, and Effective

5.0 4 weeks ago New

Comments: We’ve been using EngageBay for over 2 years now, and it’s been a game-changer for our business. It’s super easy to use, and having everything (CRM, email marketing, sales tools) in one place makes our work so much simpler. The email campaigns are a breeze to set up, and we love how we can track everything in one dashboard. Their support team has always been helpful and quick to respond whenever we needed them. Best of all, it’s affordable — way better value than some of the "big name" CRMs out there. If you’re looking for a straightforward, budget-friendly solution that actually works, we definitely recommend giving EngageBay a try

Pros:

All-in-One Solution: Combines CRM, email marketing, sales, and support tools in one platform. User-Friendly Interface: Easy to navigate, even for non-technical users. Affordable Pricing: Offers great value compared to other CRM tools. Email Marketing Made Easy: Simple drag-and-drop email builder with automation options. Excellent Customer Support: Responsive and helpful support team. Customizable Workflows: Create automated workflows to save time and boost productivity. Detailed Analytics & Reporting: Track and measure campaign performance with ease.

Cons:

Learning Curve for Advanced Features: Some advanced features require a bit of time to master. Limited Customization for Reports: Customization of reports could be more flexible. Mobile App Limitations: The mobile app could use more functionality. Occasional Bugs/Glitches: Like any software, there are rare instances of small bugs.

DON'T BUY THIS SYSTEM!

1.0 2 months ago

Comments: As an example, the system is totally useless, I have spent two weeks trying to get by all the non logic functions and bugs to even send a newsletter. I can't even filter on the objects attached to a contact.
The Sync with Hubspot was a scam, we spent 20000€ to get our data over from Hubspot.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Everything

EngageBay Response

2 months ago

Hi Jerker, I'm sorry to hear about your experience. Until the account is warmed up, we have a limit on how many emails you can send, just to ensure your domain reputation does not get impacted. Also, may I know what the issue was with the sync and who you paid the money to? We do not see any additional payments other than the subscription cost.

Great Value with Room for Small Improvements

5.0 2 months ago New

Pros:

EngageBay CRM has transformed our customer management! The all-in-one platform is user-friendly and packed with features typically found in more expensive tools. I especially love the marketing automation and seamless integration across sales and support. It’s a powerful, affordable CRM with fantastic customer support—highly recommended!

Cons:

EngageBay CRM is a fantastic tool overall, but the customization options could be a bit more flexible. While the interface is easy to use, a few more layout customization features would be helpful. However, the regular updates show they're always improving!

Go for Engagebay, your friendly CRM!

5.0 last month New

Comments: The technicality eg setting appointment schedule could be a bit cumbersome but for a good reason. Above all the customer helpdesk has been superb especially Charles who has been most patient and supportive, resolving every challenges or queries I had since day 1.

Pros:

To begin with, for a CRM beginner, Engagebay is a great choice and business partner - providing many easy to use templates. It takes a bit of getting used to but with the team support especially Charles and also Bob & Mark, the journey has been rather easy. Auto meeting schedule facilitates proactive engagement.

Cons:

There are limitations eg limited space for intro before the email template; email broadcast is slow to be sent out sometimes, some emails not reaching corporates despite assurance that emails would land into Inbox instead of junk folder.

This Is A Great Initial CRM For Start-Ups and Growth Phase Businesses

4.0 6 months ago

Comments: I have a lot of experience with Hubspot and Sales Force. I really liked the functionality of Hubspot, however the pricing for that was way to high for the current company that I work for. Engagebay delivers most of the same features, though some of the workflow is different. There is also a learning curve with any new CRM.

Pros:

Engagebay does a great job with contact management, emails, and call lists at an very affordable price. It does what other of the big name CRMS do, at a fraction of the price

Cons:

There are some things I would like to streamline with this CRM such as putting in a contact note without having to go all the way into a contact under a note. It would be nice to be able to be able to edit a note or task from the contact list screen, rather than having to go all the way into a contact.

Fast ROI with EngageBay

5.0 10 months ago

Comments: The overall experience has been very satisfactory. The initial demo and onboarding was highly informative and showed how EngageBay would serve our purpose for a very reasonable cost. The several times I have needed tech support I was able to jump on a chat, explain what I needed help with, and quickly get a resolution to the issue.

Pros:

EngageBay is an extremely easy platform to implement. While there have been a few times we have had their support team help us, for the most part it is highly intuitive. One of the key features we needed was the ability to create email sequences. Having used other CRM platforms, I was pleased with the bulk upload feature. With other platforms, I found I was able to only upload 50 at a time which was time consuming. With EngageBay I was able to upload 500 contacts all at once. With other platforms I have been limited to sending 500 emails per day. After using the email verifier that EngageBay provides for a very nominal cost, we are able to send up to 1000 emails per day.

Cons:

Setting up the email sequences was a bit tricky in places. The first time I went to upload contacts to the email sequence the contacts did not load properly. When I checked to see results the next day, I found that only a few dozen emails had been sent. After contacting tech support, I was able to avoid having this happen again and was able to get all contacts uploaded.

I am in love with the Platform

5.0 9 months ago

Pros:

I find EngageBay a comprehensive, all-in-one solution, offering robust functionalities across organization, task automation, form and landing page creation, marketing campaign management, and result tracking. It provides an extensive toolkit essential for both marketing and sales teams, seamlessly integrating appointment scheduling, content creation, campaign execution, and data organization.

Cons:

I haven't found a single aspect of EngageBay that I haven't liked yet. Whenever I encounter an issue, the chatbot is always there to provide instant assistance, making the experience even smoother.

Value, Efficiency and Productivity

5.0 last year

Comments: The lead capture and email marketing was sole reason we joined engagebay and couldn’t be happier. Wasn’t expecting all the other features to be part of this software, almost overwhelming but reassuring to know we can start putting most of our work, efficiently into one place

Pros:

Right now we're using it for contact management and e-mail marketing primarily. We had a CRM in Zoho and will be migrating most likely soon. Pros: Extensive features at an incredible value and easy to use. Customer support response is amazing and communication is stellar. Feel like I havent even cracked the surface of what engagebay can do!

Cons:

Time. As great as engagebay is, it’s hard to manage the migration project to CRM. It’s almost as if there’s too much available and migrating doesn’t feel intuitive.

Engagebay's Support Chat: Reliable and Efficient

5.0 7 months ago

Comments: Despite this, I highly recommend Engagebay's support chat for anyone looking for reliable and efficient customer service. Their dedication to helping users navigate the platform more than makes up for its current limitations.

Pros:

I've been using Engagebay for our email automation since last year, and their support chat has been incredibly helpful throughout. Every time I've had an issue or needed assistance, the support team responded promptly and provided clear, effective solutions. They have been a great help in ensuring our campaigns run smoothly, and their professionalism and expertise are truly commendable. I highly recommend Engagebay's support chat for anyone looking for reliable and efficient customer service.

Cons:

However, one area where Engagebay could improve is in its automation capabilities. While it covers most basic requirements effectively, there are limitations when it comes to more advanced automation needs. Some specific automation features and customization options are either missing or not as robust as we would like.

Accepted a Free Trial & Saw What All The Fuss is About

4.0 5 months ago

Comments: I just accepted the free trial to see what everybody has been talking about it being a great and powerful tool for marketing, and I can attest now that I've seen, that I do agree 100%.

Pros:

I like how it aligns most platforms with one another, nearly every other software available doesn't streamline the process of connecting all profiles. Most issues are caused by the time it takes to connect them all (like hoops you're made to jump through just to get to that point), I am always searching for a better "main hub" situation because each one, I've learned in my own experiences, that not one single platform, hub, account management, and otherwise, never do ALL that you need them to be able to do. One may do 15 things that the other doesn't but that one missing those 15 features may have the one feature that you really needed to lighten the load or something. Its always something or 5 things, but for the money EngageBay seems to be true to their word, and have nearly mastered the all-in-one hub

Cons:

Cost, make it accessible for everyone, even consider a free option because more times than not, someone will desperately need the features that are restricted usually in free-trials or free plans, and end up buying regardless to satisfy that need.

Powerful, Affordable CRM for Small Businesses

4.0 3 months ago

Pros:

I found EngageBay CRM to be highly intuitive and user-friendly. Its all-in-one platform provides seamless access to essential tools such as email marketing, automation, and sales pipeline management without overwhelming complexity. The pricing is also very competitive, especially for startups and small businesses. Customer support is responsive, and the platform offers good customization options for workflows and dashboards.

Cons:

While EngageBay offers a broad set of features, some advanced functionalities (like deep reporting and analytics) feel a bit limited compared to more premium CRMs. Additionally, integrations with third-party tools are improving, but it lacks some of the deeper native integrations that larger platforms provide. The mobile app also has room for improvement in terms of speed and usability.

Engage Bay CRM is a tool worth considering

5.0 last year

Comments: Overall it is a great product. I would definitely recommend it.

Pros:

It does everything i need in a CRM and sales tool. it has definitely helped me become more efficient. Best thing about Engage Bay is their support. Chat support is live and picks up almost immediately. they always resolve the issue, you are never rushed. they will even give you a call if text is getting tedious. It seems nowadays everyone's support is non existent so their outstanding support makes it stand out

Cons:

its a little difficult setting up /navigating at times, however if you reach out to support, they will get you going in the right direction. once it learn it its simple. and the interface can be a little slow at times, however has never been a real issue.

One aspect of EngageBay CRM that I found less satisfactory is the limited customization options for certain features. While it's generally user-friendly, there are areas where I wish I could tailor the functionality more to fit our specific needs.
