What differentiates Freshsales from other similar products?

Freshsales suite has so many scenarios in which it can be applied that it basically serves to cover all types of areas that require some commercial operation. The best applications of the platform, in our opinion, are clearly the execution of follow-ups when the platform is integrated with survey generation services.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The tasks system within the Freshsales suite of sales tools is excellent for organizing the business operations you need, allowing you to switch from one task to another with great convenience. Freshsales platform allows to manage contacts from email lists, so they can be integrated into the Freshsales CRM tool just by using some APIs

What do you dislike most about this product?

Although Freshsales allows us to attach an estimated number of people to sales tasks, the platform limits a lot the configuration of each of the accessibility and basic configuration permissions, so in the end it ends up being counterproductive. The process of importing user accounts within Freshsales is quite slow.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Thanks to the capacity with which Freshsales integrates with all kinds of external services oriented to the generation of eCommerce plans, we think it is easy to recommend it when planning new SEO strategies, either to cover future sales campaigns, or to better define the targets of a product or service.

Pros

Helps Innovate
Continually Improving Product
