Luis Teran - PeerSpot reviewer
Reliable with very good social media integration and easy to use
The deployment is a bit harder as you sometimes need help. For us, we have experience. It is not so hard, however, we have a dependency on the operative system, such as Microsoft with Windows Server 2019 or 2016. You must get that kind of system. Also, you need to get this updated and you have many dependencies that you have to work with. The deployment is easy, however, when you want to get the IDR or you want to get the integrations as you want them, you need to deal with so many dependencies with other platforms that it can get hard. That's what's hard with the solution. The solution itself is, of course, it's easy for us, for an engineer, however, for untrained people, that is hard. For the deployment, if the contact center is a large contact center, you must get four engineers or five engineers to do the deployment. Most of them will make the integration and the others will configure the IDR. Another will deploy the integration, and that's all. Of course, then, there will be the documentation you need to deal with.

Offers the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting
We do a lot of analytics and reporting ourselves. We don't necessarily use all the features that Pipedrive provides, but it's very helpful at least. It has streamlined our deal-closing process. We use it for everything. When we create a lead, we put it into Pipedrive. That lead can be converted into an opportunity, which we manage through our whole pipeline. This includes having all data related to the opportunity in one place. Once the deal is closed, we use Pipedrive to follow up on the invoices until they are paid. We also manage sales commissions and payments to our salespeople through Pipedrive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The social media integration is excellent."
"Interactive Intelligence is quite user friendly."
"Pipedrive's most valuable feature is reporting and insights. The CRM shows the database and lets the salespeople arrange their daily activities. The insights are essential from a management point of view because it helps the sales staff improve or adjust their whole sales cycle, activities, and quality."
"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"The solution is very stable."
"The biggest and the best feature is the view that you get when you log in. You have a board like Kanban when you log in, and you've got a column on the left and several other columns that move to the right, depending on where you are in a particular deal. If it's a prospect or someone who is just looking, you move it along the process, and it really helps you keep track of where you are."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It's very flexible and we can really fit it into our business model."
"It is a stable platform."
 

Cons

"The problem with this current system is that the support is not great."
"The initial setup can be a bit difficult."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"The form builder works even though it has some shortcomings...Also, the forms don't have the ability to avoid or stop people from signing up if they don't have a corporate email."
"The integration possibilities with other systems could be better as well. We use it in connection with Octopus CRM, and there's room for improvement."
"We are using the lowest version of it. As we become more sophisticated, we might outgrow the tool, but there are features that are available in the higher-level versions, which I'm unfamiliar with, that might be able to meet the needs we would have in the future. They can maybe add some of the features to the basic version or make it more reasonably priced or free."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting."
"The automation process is challenging."
"In future releases, I would like to have a highly intelligent integration service where you can easily connect PipeDrive with other tools, even if you are not a developer."
"The product is expensive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
"The product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"The solution is affordable."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
"Pipedrive keeps increasing the prices, which is becoming a bit annoying. It was reasonable when we started, but now they're increasing all the time."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, two or three. For us, everything is expensive because this is a startup, but for a normal company, it should be peanuts."
