Featured Reviews

Abasiakama Bassey - PeerSpot reviewer
A project management tool that offers great scalability and stability
The support provided by Bitrix24 is an area with shortcomings that needs improvement. From an improvement perspective, Bitrix24 should consider providing live and upfront support to its users, especially those who use the solution's free version. If you want someone to get on your platform for which you can't provide support, then it doesn't make that platform any different from its competitors. It would make sense to people if Bitrix24 could provide support for even their free version. It would be good if Bitrix24 added some accounting elements to the tool instead of just providing functionality related to bookkeeping alone since it can help Bitrix24 become a complete tool. During the setup phase of the solution, the tool should provide its users an option to add the accounting part, making it a complete solution.
Cristina Neri - PeerSpot reviewer
Cheaply-priced and does not require much customizations
It is a scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten. At the moment, the tool functions quite well for our needs. Around five people use the tool. In the future, my company might plan to increase the use of the solution. Currently, all the sales people in our company use the product.

"The technical support was intuitive and had good documentation."
"It is a very scalable solution...The tool currently operates efficiently and contributes to our ongoing digitization efforts, including documentation and workflows."
"I believe that having one system that handles all of the functions that we need in a business, such as marketing, sales, pipeline management, project management, meetings, customer contact, customer feedback, social media integrations, and connections to our cloud data storage, Google, and Microsoft, is a good idea."
"We use many of this solution's features for communication and for process automation. It offers more functionality than a regular CRM."
"Bitrix24's workflow is better than that of others. The user interface is also good."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its project management functionality...It is a pretty stable solution."
"The product is user-friendly."
"Email integration is easy."
"Freshsales is user-friendly, scalable and stable."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to divert deals based on the potential revenue or specific market to certain sales teams."
"Freshsales is very simple to use, but it's fairly limited in its functionalities, and it's very cheap."
"The solution is a low-cost CRM product compared to other CRM alternatives."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its well-organized sales cycle, which is important to us."
"I like Freshsales because it's integrated with Shopify which we use to host our website."
 

Cons

"Some functionalities of the tool required specific expertise. For example, the SIP Connector is difficult to install."
"The user interface could be improved or simplified. When you log in and see so many functions, it's a little overwhelming."

"The solution’s performance could be made faster."
"The solution's open channel and contact center could be improved."
"There are some bugs in the mobile system."
"Bitrix24’s interface needs to be improved."
"It's a team management tool, but the way the tasks are assigned and the way you are able to control them are lacking when compared to Asana or monday.com. The latter tools are a lot more adaptable to team management. Thus, better features to control the team are needed in Bitrix24."
"The price of this solution could be improved as well as the reporting functionality."
"It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases."
"We can use only one domain in the basic package."

"The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture."
"We have a problem with the time to delivery for our customers, although this is not specific to this solution. Time to delivery can be 90 days."

"Price-wise, it is a very cheap solution."
"The basic price is affordable. The add ons are expensive."
"Freshsales is an economical product."
"The price for this solution is good in general, but in Brazil we do pay additional taxes."
