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.
Julio Falcon - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization and process automation enhance support operations, but interface consistency could improve
At this time, there is not specifically something to improve regarding Service Creatio, but a couple of years ago, Creatio started developing a new version called Freedom UI with new interfaces. The new interfaces are amazing, but we still have some features in Classic UI that we cannot use in Freedom UI. What we miss is having all features in Classic available in Freedom. Creatio works every three months to release new features, but they are taking too much time to make all those features available. We could use more time. There are a lot of business rules we can use in Classic UI, but we cannot use many of those business rules in the Freedom UI because of the different interfaces. We miss several kinds of business rules or conditions that we could use in the design of the application or interfaces to the customer. For instance, I had a feature to introduce a formula graphically, but I can only use very basic formulas in the latest release. In Classic UI, we have powerful formulas, but in Freedom UI, I am limited to direct files from the current screen. The only thing I miss is having all the features from Classic UI available in Freedom UI. For instance, managing duplicated records is a feature that we can easily use in Classic UI, but in Freedom UI I cannot merge contacts to resolve duplicates, which is not available yet.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Freshsales is user-friendly, scalable and stable."
"Email integration is easy."
"Freshsales is very simple to use, but it's fairly limited in its functionalities, and it's very cheap."
"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."
"I like Freshsales because it's integrated with Shopify which we use to host our website."
"Service Creatio is a great tool in process automation."
"You can draw a video map or draw on a piece of paper and put it in creation using the designer tool."
"Our customers have seen value and efficiency using this solution."
 

Cons

"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."
"It lacks customizability for complex and larger use cases."
"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 licensing costs should be based on the amount of data and number of clients that one can insert into the application."
"The solution needs to improve the user experience and leads capture."
"Despite me telling them that Service Creatio has many certifications to protect data, they chose on-premise, which has created issues, as they must be responsible for updates, upgrades, and new releases."
"The customer self-portal is not good. Service Creatio has a special capability for external customers and users to access the web portal, but we had to use third-party solutions developed by us."
"The return material authorization should utilize no-code or low-code."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price for this solution is good in general, but in Brazil we do pay additional taxes."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"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 basic price is affordable. The add ons are expensive."
