Our reps stopped keeping a side spreadsheet

Sequences arrived when we moved to Pro and our follow up stopped depending on whether a rep remembered. Reply rates went up measurably in the first quarter, which is the only reason I could justify the jump in price.

Pros

Genuinely capable at nine dollars per user per month

Cons

Marketing automation is thin next to a dedicated tool

Marketing automation is thin

Growth at nine dollars is genuinely usable and everything I actually wanted was on Pro at thirty nine. Sequences, multiple pipelines and territory management are all up there. That is more than four times the price and you should plan against Pro rather than the headline.

Pros

Configurable by a sales manager without an administrator

Cons

Some features assume you run other Freshworks products

Thank you for the feedback and we are sorry about the response time on your ticket. That is not the standard we aim for. Please reply to your ticket requesting escalation and it will be routed to a senior engineer.

We ran the free tier with three users for our first year and it was a real product rather than a teaser. We upgraded when we hired a fourth rep, which is exactly how a free tier should work.

Support is the weak point by a distance

Response times depend heavily on when you raise the ticket. Raise it in the US afternoon and you wait. There is no phone line that gets you a person quickly on our plan, which for a system the sales team depends on is a real gap.

Sequences on Pro paid for the upgrade

The AI scoring was something I ignored for six months and then noticed it was right. The contacts it pushes up genuinely convert more often, and our reps now work the list top down instead of by whoever shouted last.

The phone being built in changed our day

Two way email sync means the whole thread sits on the deal and any of us can pick up a conversation. Handover between our SDR and the closer stopped losing context.

The phone being built in changed our day

Nine dollars per user per month for pipeline management, email sync, scoring and automation is a price I did not have to justify to anyone. We ran Salesforce at a previous company for roughly fifteen times that and used about the same amount of it.

Nine dollars for something this capable

Our reps used to keep the real pipeline in a spreadsheet and update the CRM on Friday. They stopped, because entering it here is faster than maintaining the spreadsheet was. That is the only measure of CRM success that matters.

The jump from Growth to Pro is steep

Reports cover pipeline, activity and forecasting well. Anything cohort based or unusual means exporting. For our sales manager it is enough and our finance lead builds his own in a spreadsheet.

Marketing automation is thin

It is clearly designed assuming you might also run Freshdesk. We do, and support tickets appearing on the customer record is genuinely useful. If you do not, you will occasionally hit a feature that half assumes you do.
