Tagging is the concept the whole product rests on. Once that clicked, everything got easier, and before it clicked nothing made sense. If you buy this, learn tags first and the rest follows.

Onboarding is mandatory and priced
This is not a product you buy and use. Somebody has to own it, learn it properly and build the flows. We gave it to one person for a month and it worked. Businesses that spread it across four part time people are the ones you see complaining.

Powerful, and you must commit someone to it
The nickname it picked up in the Infusionsoft years was fair. It is dense, the terminology is its own, and the first fortnight is genuinely disorienting. It does become second nature and the ramp is real.

One campaign has run for four years unattended
Our service business runs on it end to end. Enquiry comes in through a form, gets scored and routed, nurtured if not ready, booked if ready, invoiced on completion. Two people run what used to take four.

Tagging drives everything and that is the trick
I built a campaign in 2022 that tags an enquiry, sends a five email sequence, books a consultation, invoices after the job and asks for a review a week later. It has run ever since without me touching it. That flow is worth more than the subscription and it is why I tolerate everything else.

We spent three months and never got it live
We bought it, spent three months trying to get our flows built around actual work, and never launched. That is our failure as much as the product's and the product made it easy to fail. We moved to something simpler and shipped in two weeks.

Onboarding is compulsory and costs around five hundred dollars, so month one lands near eight hundred. It was useful and I would have liked it presented as part of the price rather than discovered at checkout.

Reporting is genuinely weak for the price
We imported a trade show list of about four thousand contacts and stepped up a contact tier without any confirmation prompt. The bill went up immediately and the mechanic is documented rather than in front of you when you do the thing that triggers it. Clean the list first.

As a CRM it is fine rather than impressive. The pipeline is basic next to Pipedrive and the reporting is ordinary. You are buying the automation engine and getting a CRM attached.
Pros

Cons
