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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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 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."
"Email integration is easy."
"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."
"The scalability is unlimited."
"Support from Monday.com makes you feel super comfortable communicating any inquiries you may have."
"I especially like the dashboards where you can combine info from different boards into one."
"The features I found most valuable are the Kanban boards."
"Monday has been really beneficial in allowing us to place all of our records in one place."
"I love that Monday.com has boards that can change with a click from a list, to a calendar, to a form that you can send and collect data, etc."
"We use less paper thanks to this product."
"I mostly like automation and recently added custom automation so we can brainstorm and find the best fit for our particular use-case."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture."
"The price of this solution could be improved as well as the reporting functionality."
"The licensing costs should be based on the amount of data and number of clients that one can insert into the application."
"It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases."
"We can use only one domain in the basic package."
"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 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."
"I would really like to see the reporting functionality updated."
"If I want to use the product after I have completed my assignment, or if I want to use it for some of my other projects, I don't really get to use it again."
"One thing that would be cool is if Monday had a chat feature."
"In my initial exposure to the interface, I did not find it to be very user-friendly."
"We need the product to keep adding automation - specifically more subitem automation."
"If we could add a new feature to draw the plan as a chart and note priority via color, that would be great."
"I'm unclear about the notifications feature in that I receive way too many emails."
"For others who have more varied assignments, some of which require collaboration with other team members, they might find Monday insufficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Freshsales is an economical product."
"If one is a very low price and ten is expensive, I rate the product price as a three."
"The price for this solution is good in general, but in Brazil we do pay additional taxes."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"The basic price is affordable. The add ons are expensive."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"monday.com is pretty affordable. It's cheaper than Asana. There are four tiers, including a free version. The free version is fine if you don't have any complex projects. One of the most advanced plans is around $16 per month per user."
"monday.com's pricing is fair compared to its competitors, although it is a bit more expensive than most of them. It's more expensive than Jira, Zoho, ClickUp, and Trello. But it is fairly priced when you compare the kinds of features and the capabilities that you get and the ROI."
"The solution is quite inexpensive. For example, we pay $8,500 for 75 users. It's somewhere around $100 a user, approximately."
"The enterprise plan looks expensive because we don't understand the value as monday.com users. The pro level and other packages seem reasonable."
"I am using its free version."
"The pricing is totally fair. I don't have any issues with it."
"I wasn't involved with the licensing, but I believe it's negotiable."
