An easy- to- use and scalable cloud-based CRM tool for managing and tracking
I have noticed that Pipedrive is doing a lot in terms of web cybersecurity and integration with other tools, which is good. However, we haven't integrated it with our ERP system yet, so that might pose a challenge. We'll have to see how it goes. The Integration with artificial intelligence should be available in the next release. 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. Perhaps, in the future, this could be achieved through artificial intelligence.

Connecting directly with sales tools facilitates seamless outreach and messaging
Being able to set up the cadences in steps is very helpful, where it moves on to the next step, and also where it connects with SalesLoft Sales Navigator. So far, being able to connect directly, instead of switching back and forth to Sales Navigator, has worked well. Also, being able to send messages directly from SalesLoft through LinkedIn Sales Navigator messaging is very useful. I can do everything right from the SalesLoft page without continuously switching between SalesLoft and Sales Navigator.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"Anyone thinking about using this solution should definitely look at it and seriously consider it because it's a very good product."
"It is a stable platform."
"Our primary use case for this solution ranges from using it for daily activities in sales to forecasting and KPIs and following up on every deal we are working on and every lease we are opening."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create timelines and custom fields."
"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 most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"SalesLoft's customer support has been really good."
 

Cons

"Reporting capabilities of the solution could be improved."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"Areas where the solution could improve are with the easiness of integration with other solutions, as well as the reporting capabilities."
"The automation process is challenging."
"Pipedrive could be more efficient. I want the management to be more transparent so it's easier to monitor the sales team's activities and results and do business forecasting. It would help them to improve the quality of the sales cycle."
"Pipedrive is relatively stable, but the performance is lackluster compared to other solutions in this space."
"The platform could be even more robust."
"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."
"Navigating through emails and LinkedIn messages to find which ones have been opened could be improved. I can see email open rates, but identifying who actually opened them is difficult."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Pipedrive has been reasonable."
"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."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"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."
"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."
"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 product is expensive but provides valuable services."
