Quotes built in CRM become orders in Sage 100 without anyone retyping anything. That was a whole job before, and it was a job that introduced errors.

Before this, a rep would promise stock, then the order would hit the ERP and the stock was gone. That stopped on day one. The credit hold visibility saved us twice in the first quarter.

It is not the best CRM. It is the best CRM that knows what our ERP knows, and for us that was the deciding factor.

Mobile is effectively unusable
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.

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.

The ERP link is the entire reason and it works
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.

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.

My reps hate it and adoption reflects that
Adoption is the problem. Reps log the minimum and keep their real pipeline in a spreadsheet, which means my forecast is fiction. The ERP integration is great and it does not matter if nobody puts the data in.

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.
