Capsule CRM vs. Copper

Using Capsule CRM, businesses can have a perfect CRM solution without the risk of being forced to pay on a monthly subscription basis. Compared to other customer relationship management apps, it has a wide range of unique features. Functional and cost-effective are the main advantages. Because we're a small company, its simplicity appeals to us greatly. For a limited time, start-ups can store up to 250 contacts in the free version. Capsule CRM is well-suited to Gmail and offers many other integration possibilities. Even though it lacks some more powerful CRM features, the Capsule platform makes up for this with a widespread list of integrations.

Copper has helped me extensively keep track of not only my own but my company's workflow. With so many projects and quotes to track, it has become essential to keep me on task and not miss any of our goals. It has been a perfect fit with our specific workflow, but I don't think it has the customizability just yet to be a perfect fit for every company out there.

• Capsule is very easy to use. You can just jump in and learn as you go. There are advantages to really learning the ins and outs, but for those who aren't sold on a CRM to begin with it's good for just getting them started. It is what you make of it--you can use the most basic features or really dive in to the many functionalities.
• The UI is clean and intuitive. We don't get easily overwhelmed while using it.
• Capsule has a very robust contact management system. It allows for the generation of very specific lists within existing contacts, which is good if the user has to keep track of thousands of individuals and companies. There is a tagging feature that is great for further organizing contacts.
• I like that there is a simple workflow option. I encourage the sales guys to make use of this "Tracks" feature, and they often do (but if they don't, it's not the end of the world, which is nice). It provides custom sets of tasks that are created as soon as you start an opportunity or a case.
• Capsule has a LOT of integrations, which is great if you're looking to expand what you do with your CRM. We got Capsule just to keep track of the sales pipeline, but now that everyone's on board with the concept of a CRM (they weren't sold at first!) we can look into implementing more robust programs that can "talk to" Capsule.

• The Google integration and Chrome extension automatically tracks and updates prospect and lead activity in the CRM. Data entry is simplified.
• Copper is a very user-friendly CRM with the ability to create custom fields, multiple pipelines, sales stages, etc. It is truly customizable and far less complex than other CRMs I have used in the past.
• Copper makes it simple to add leads manually, through Gmail or using a template and uploading a large list.
• Great support. We are very happy with our account management team and they strive to make sure we are getting the most out of the platform.
• Pricing is very competitive.

• Its integration with Mail chimp is not smooth. Also, it does not allow to list contacts alphabetically which is a great downside of this tool. It does not contain some essential marketing features.
• It needs to improve the user interface and make it more productive especially on the calendar view.
• The contact sorting is quite disappointing. It would be nice if it allows users to set screen filters.

• Window change: for mobile - when you tap on a card from a pipeline it takes you to the lead’s basic info. I wish it would immediately just open all activities so I can quick see notes
• I usually use Copper on the go. When you open the Copper app, it immediately opens a collab window. I wish it had some sort of easy dashboard….plus a notes area. I open Copper on mobile to quickly search for someone’s name or to take quick notes from a sales meeting

• Ease of use for small business owners who have very less time to learn how to use a CRM.
• Mobile application is nice and clean with key features being highlighted. Helps to update them on the go.
• Free plan has good features which helps with client buyin after setting it up and the client trying the setup out before making a purchase.

I would rate Copper overall usability as a 10. It is easy to use. I am not extremely computer friendly so I needed to find something that would fit what I can do. Copper definitely fit the bill. I would highly recommend it to anyone of any level of computer knowledge.

Capsule CRM effectively specifies the causes of any project's disadvantage and problem-solving. This application is effortless because of its genuine approach to business empowerment. Everything is easily accessible with a single click. Our clients will appreciate our technical and user-friendly promotions. Furthermore, it is well worth our company's time to run.

It has been so far so good, they have been quick to respond to queries, and do follow up as well. But then again this is a work in progress and I guess they would not have a solution to every problem every posed to them right away. Hence I will refrain from making any judgments.

• Easy to signup and ease of use for small business use cases.
• Non-aggresive (a good thing) sales team helps clients try it out at their own pace.
• Only the key important featuers are visible on the screen which matter. Helps with lesser confusion with carry out simple tasks.
• Free plan is one of the best on offer to try it out.

In all fairness, other CRM tools I have used were set up by a corporate IT person who knew much more than I do about programming. Therefore, those were easy to use and had the features I expected them to have. Whereas I, with minimal IT experience, set up Copper by myself. It works very well for what we do, so it is a very user-friendly program.

• Capsule CRM software not only interprets with resource planning but maintains the customer relationship at its peak.
• This software is altogether a big package to promote and control the business movements on a high scale
• This application tends to work with all versions but, there is no plan to cop up with the R13 version so, the latest version should have all effects to compensate for the business dealings.

• The ability to nurture abandoned prospects via Sequences has proven to be a great tool for our Business Development Team. Rather than leaving the nurturing to Marketing, the BD Team is able to play a more active role in reviving abandoned Opportunities with a higher potential for conversion to clients.
• Probably the biggest positive impact Copper has had for our company is its ability to export to Sheets. As a financial services company, we live inside of spreadsheets and are constantly crunching numbers. Being able to pull important data out of Copper and into a tool like sheets has allowed us to create a robust series of charts and metrics enabling us to tweak our performance for the better.
• The biggest negative impact Copper has had on our overall business might be in the inability to track interactions between members of our company that don't have Copper licenses. While we don't need every member of our company to use all of the features within the CRM platform, the lack of email tracking for all people within our company causes the interaction counts for prospects/clients to be skewed and not reflect the true count of total interactions.
