My reps hate it and adoption reflects that
We ran it for two years and moved to HubSpot with a custom ERP integration. It cost more to build and the team actually uses it. The integration was never worth what the interface cost us in adoption.

We migrated off within two years
The mobile experience is a browser view of a desktop app. My field reps gave up in the first month. In 2026 that is not acceptable for a sales tool.

Mobile is effectively unusable
The marketing module next to an actual marketing tool is not a comparison. Basic list email and that is about it. We ended up buying a separate platform anyway, which undermined the one system argument entirely.

Thank you for the review. Sage CRM is built to work most effectively alongside Sage ERP, and we understand it is not the right choice for every sales team. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss your requirements with you.

No ecosystem to speak of
Almost no third party apps. Everything we wanted to connect was a custom job. Coming from a modern CRM the emptiness of the marketplace is genuinely startling.

Dated, but it does the one thing
If you are not on Sage ERP there is no argument for this product. None. Pipedrive is cheaper and better and there are twenty others. The integration is the whole case.

Quotes flow into Sage 300 without retyping
Our reps can see real inventory and real credit status from Sage 300 inside the customer record. Not a nightly sync that is wrong by lunchtime, the actual number. For a distributor that single thing is worth more than every feature HubSpot has that this does not.
