What differentiates Salesforce Starter from other similar products?

We had problems finding a CRM that integrates well to API platforms in order to get more potential to work, but luckily salesforce provides us this. We are quite satisfied with the implementation of salesforce in our sales management.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We really like the salesforce price of $ 25 monthly. This CRM is ideal to manage not only our customers, but also our sales. We like to be able to manage quotas, territories, and that you have such an excellent chat tool.

What do you dislike most about this product?

We do not like that it takes so long to manage manufacturing processes. Importing documents is somewhat complicated, so we usually waste a little time doing this. It is not optimized for mobile devices.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Salesforce is an excellent tool for CRM and other applications that link companies to process orders and submissions. I had a problem with my version because too many tiles were added. I'm sure this helps with the overall sales presentation for those who sign on the dotted line, but not so much for those who use it.

What differentiates Salesforce Starter from other similar products?

Salesforce Essentials offers a package of basic features of the comprehensive Salesforce CRM solution. So for businesses who have small customer base and they need to manage their CRM function, Salesforce Essentials could be a starting point to assess their needs.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

It is simplified so it does not lag much. The interface is simple as it has less features; thus the interface is simpler too.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Unavailability of some features; however I understand as this is the Essential version of the full solution.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For starters, this version of Salesforce is a nice way to manage your customers. It is less expensive than the full version so once the team gets equipped with this then the upgrade can be made.
