"The usability of the solution is its valuable feature.""The most useful stuff for me is that it's very flexible with all the data structures...Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""It's very flexible and we can really fit it into our business model.""Pipedrive's most valuable feature is reporting and insights. The CRM shows the database and lets the salespeople arrange their daily activities. The insights are essential from a management point of view because it helps the sales staff improve or adjust their whole sales cycle, activities, and quality.""The most valuable feature is the ability to create timelines and custom fields.""It is a stable platform.""The initial setup is straightforward.""Pipedrive's most valuable features are that you can keep the whole information that's related to managing your sales process and you can customize it easily. The person that we have who is customizing Pipedrive is very junior in means of software development or process development. He can easily use it, anyone can use the solution. It has a very easy user interface to customize your processes and apply them to the Pipedrive process."

Cons
"The solution sends callouts when not in maintenance mode, which is a headache for the people involved.""They should provide a larger number of free emails.""The solution's initial setup process could be better.""Apollo.io still needs to work on the CRM part because it has started building some CRM infrastructure for companies to use and track their sales activities.""What's missing in Apollo.io is a proper CRM and pipeline management system. The tool is excellent at finding contact information, but it has room for improvement in sending emails and tracking the sales pipeline."

More Apollo.io Cons →

"In future releases, I would like to have a highly intelligent integration service where you can easily connect PipeDrive with other tools, even if you are not a developer.""The product is expensive.""Pipedrive could be more efficient. I want the management to be more transparent so it's easier to monitor the sales team's activities and results and do business forecasting. It would help them to improve the quality of the sales cycle.""We are using the lowest version of it. As we become more sophisticated, we might outgrow the tool, but there are features that are available in the higher-level versions, which I'm unfamiliar with, that might be able to meet the needs we would have in the future. They can maybe add some of the features to the basic version or make it more reasonably priced or free.""Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting.""You must pay more if you need an additional feature.""The platform could be even more robust.""Reporting capabilities of the solution could be improved."
