Featured Reviews

Greg Jacob - PeerSpot reviewer
Streamlines collaboration across teams and has a straightforward setup process
The platform initiates a series of processes to complete the sale, which may involve ordering equipment, providing services, and tracking necessary activities. The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team. Compared to my experience working with HubSpot, which excelled in presales and marketing but lacked integration with ERP and post-sales processes, NetSuite CRM+ stands out for its ability to streamline collaboration and information sharing across teams. It facilitates post-sales engagement by effectively providing visibility into the bill of materials and assigning responsibilities. The platform is not highly customizable like Salesforce. However, it offers sufficient flexibility for our requirements. I can easily create different views and reports and add widgets to my home screen as needed. I rate it an eight out of ten.
Willem Lambrechts - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Pros

"We use the product for standard CRM functions like email marketing, account management, scheduling customer profiles, and marketing materials, and for integration with the Suite Commerce."
"NetSuite CRM+ helps us provide customer support and track schedules for field service."
"Very scalable solution that provides customer relationship management, sales, and marketing functions. It's very straightforward to set up, and it supports multi-subsidiary organizations."
"The feature that has been most effective in improving sales performance is its alignment with the ordering team."
"The solution is very stable."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create timelines and custom fields."
"Pipedrive makes it easy to understand who I'm talking to at a glance. It has all the activities, node features, opportunity interface, deal interface, and time drive deals.The sales process is extremely simple, which saves me time and energy. I can send the document for e-signature and make the most out of my deals. I can automatically send emails and phone calls. You need to do only a little API programming. It offers massive flexibility. You can run an entire enterprise on the platform. The ease of use facilitates huge adoption."
"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 solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
 

Cons

"What could be improved in NetSuite CRM+ is its UI, because it's ugly. When you compare it to the Salesforce UI, the UI in Salesforce, particularly its reporting, looks better."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating AI functionality to provide intuitive assistance."
"NetSuite's field service automation should be updated. We should be able to fully automate the assignment of service orders to technicians."
"The product needs to improve the warehouse management feature."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"Reporting capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"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."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"The product is expensive."
"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 automation process is challenging."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other tools, you have to pay for the NetSuite CRM+ module itself. You will pay a recurring fee regardless of how many users you have, then you will pay a fee per user, per month. Its cost is not a licensing cost per user, but a module cost and a user cost."
"It ultimately depends on the features and functionalities required for your specific use case."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
"Pipedrive is the most cost-effective in terms of the balance between cost and features. I would take Pipedrive over HubSpot or Zoho CRM. It's well-positioned on the market."
"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
"The product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"The solution is affordable."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
