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.
S Solomon Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Advanced forecasting and analysis capabilities
In terms of improvements, we can add new features that customers are demanding, such as service and quality improvements. For instance, we could have a model to predict the expected quality, which can be imported and developed as a new feature. We can improve quality features, and there is room for enhancement. Additionally, we can also improve service-related features by adding new functionalities. Each department has its workflow. But there is a hierarchy for pricing, and managers should be approached in such cases. So, there can be a more stabilized way of having a single point of contact to approach at any time. It is already there, but some more enhancements would be good. Regarding integration, specific third-party tools are not accepted, for example, on the old version of IBM or Oracle. Some more workloads need to be done to integrate those tools, and we can have some enhancements on integration. ION is a very good tool, and we use web services already. The old system of using RESTful APIs has been eradicated, and the super approval trial is good. So, this tool is a refined way of working with services where it integrates any third-party tool. But, some of the older versions may need additional adjustments to integrate properly.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Freshsales is very simple to use, but it's fairly limited in its functionalities, and it's very cheap."
"Freshsales is user-friendly, scalable and stable."
"Email integration is easy."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its well-organized sales cycle, which is important to us."
"The solution is a low-cost CRM product compared to other CRM alternatives."
"I like Freshsales because it's integrated with Shopify which we use to host our website."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to divert deals based on the potential revenue or specific market to certain sales teams."
"The product's most valuable feature is production planning. It is one of the core features."
"It offers a facility to get data quickly."
"Workflow management and collaboration tools enhance operations and facilitate seamless interaction among departments."
"The stability of the solution is perfect. I rate it a ten out of ten."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"Infor CloudSuite Industrial is easy to setup. The built-in solution is already there, so we can start implementing it right away when we install it in an organization. After going through different test executions and workshops, any missing features can be added using Infor extension tables and other products. It will take at least eight to nine months to go live."
"From a product perspective, it's more lenient and suitable for using features in finance, such as reconciling our payments, accounts payable, accounts receivable, etc."
"The customization capabilities of CloudSuite Industrial are also there."
 

Cons

"The price of this solution could be improved as well as the reporting functionality."
"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."
"The reporting for this solution across all their products could be improved. Currently, we have clients who export their data from Freshservices to third party solutions such Power BI to create more comprehensive reports."
"We can use only one domain in the basic package."
"It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases."
"The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture."
"The licensing costs should be based on the amount of data and number of clients that one can insert into the application."
"Currently, there are some challenges with handling large reports, possibly due to setup limits or issues with the solution."
"The solution's support service could be better."
"Planning needs to be improved. That is, industry-specific planning details need to be added and refined."
"Infor needs to work on its documentation. For example, if I need to create a business object deployment from LVN to element, the instructions for this are insufficient. Many specific use cases aren't covered in the manual."
"The platform's distribution features need enhancement."
"It takes time to properly learn what the product can do."
"Pricing is always an area where there is room for improvement."
"For the quality department, there is a module called quality, and I feel it has to be a little bit simplified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The basic price is affordable. The add ons are expensive."
"If one is a very low price and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as a three."
"Freshsales is an economical product."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"The price for this solution is good in general, but in Brazil we do pay additional taxes."
"The pricing is not built on a standard model."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"For on-premise installations, the licensing is yearly."
"As for pricing, I secured a favorable deal at around $80,000 yearly for five years, but it was a one-time opportunity."
"The platform's pricing depends on the specific number of users."
"The product is expensive. I rate the pricing a five out of ten."
"I'm working for a German company, but I'm located in Portugal. In the German market, Infor's price isn't an issue for clients, but Infor is losing market share every year to SAP in Portugal. Portuguese clients find SAP more affordable. Infor needs to work on this."
"I feel it is not very cheap, very economical but also not very expensive."
