Chose Claritysoft
In my opinion, Claritysoft is like a second grader, and Salesforce is like a college graduate when it comes to what you can do and learn from the software. Salesforce integrates easily with other products we use, such as ZoomInfo, but Claritysoft is extremely limited in what it …

Chose Claritysoft
I think for the money, Claritysoft is a good competitor with these other CRM packages. I have personally implemented 3-4 CRM packages over my career and this is by far the easiest. I would like some more of the advanced features you find in the bigger name CRM package but for …
Claritysoft's emails are much easier to use since Salesforce is in the middle of switching from Classic to Lightning. Also, Salesforce does not have a native group edit option. Claritysoft is much more data driven and you can use all functions of Excel to customize reports. …
In terms of portfolio management, Claritysoft has been hands down a better overall product. Most importantly, it has been the most customer friendly application. The tool was selected, not by me, however many other competitors were evaluated. The aspects needed most by our …
Method:CRM is a more affordable and user-friendly CRM. It is easier to manage Method:CRM without having to purchase a bunch of add-ons like you do with Salesforce. You get what you see in the demonstration without hidden costs. The ability to create custom fields is great. …
Method communicates with QuickBooks better than Salesforce did. Method also provides better tools for notes and opportunities than Business Central or ACT!
Easier to use than Autorask or Manage. Less expensive than Salesforce while still delivering a lot of functionality, 8n a slightly less elegant fashion.
We were using Quickbooks Desktop Enterprise for a very long time. However, the software is archaic and dated. Method allows us to step into the 21st century. We now have much more online / automated interactions with our customers. We like that Method also lets us customize a …
We chose Method over Salesforce because we felt as though they were not tailored to our size of the company and our specific needs overall. They offered many things that we found very appealing but at the end of the day, we knew that with most importantly we needed a CRM to …
Work is essentially a calendar and a set of tasks. Method allows me to set up recurring onboarding task lists and keep track of all customer touchpoint in one place.
We chose Method:CRM for the QuickBooks integration. It was important for us to have integrations that allowed us to view payments, organize our contacts, and manage our sales force. There were some learning curves, however, such as creating activities, leads, customers and …
Method is by far the easiest of all platforms. It brings a lot of great features that salesforce has as well as email campaign features like constant contact, all in one. The only thing I would add would be more reporting and custom report capability.
Method is really designed for those who use QuickBooks. I like there is no cost to integrate with the software. Like other crm the user would have to an additional to integrate, but all features of QuickBooks would not able to integrate especially payments. Method has all …
I was not a part of the selection process of Method:CRM but I was part of the decision to cancel the service and I was a part of the decision-making group that found the alternative solution to what Method was doing for us. The thing that set the others apart from Method was …
Connectwise was a great product it was just not cost effective for our company. We actually really liked how Connectwise worked, it was just WAY too expensive.

Chose Method:CRM
I love the infinite customization available in Method CRM. No other CRM offers as much ROI and flexibility of design of the user interface. However Method's built-in feature set doesn't include many of the extras that might be found in a more niche product. Furthermore, while …

Comparison of Integrations with 3rd-party Software features of Product A and Product B
For a small company, just getting started with a CRM package, Claritysoft is great. Better to have something rather than nothing at all to keep up with these things we use and need in Sales.
Method[:CRM] is well suited when you have a large company that needs to keep track of customers. It also connects with Quickbooks and that has really been nice for our organization. Our company is small so this really helps us stay on track and build our data base of customers.
The things Method does well - QuickBooks data integration and extreme customization - it does very, very well. If you are looking for a CRM product or any business process automation software that integrates with QuickBooks, you have to look at Method CRM
It is VERY, VERY, simple and easy to use and learn. All I needed was a super brief 30 minute overview to understand how to use it, and their Customer Support is pretty good. I was raised on Salesforce, which is much more complicated, but allows you to do so much more.
I'm fairly new to the company and have only been using Method for the last year and the ease of use has been a blessing for me. I've self trained on most of the aspects and have incorporated new operations in the company, based on what Method has to offer, that have enhanced the productivity for all associates.
They are very helpful and quick whenever I have a question about Claritysoft CRM. I think the guy I've spoken with is named Evan, and he's been very helpful. Claritysoft, give the man a raise if you know who I'm talking about. He responds super quick with truly helpful insights.
The support is great. They are on the line within minutes and share screen to figure out the problem immediately. I would highly recommend this product for that reason. I do wish the customization was a bit easier to use; however, with fewer settings that are available to the end user and an easier way to read the customization.
Be available to learn! There is a huge learning curve to this program. You have to be willing to take it all in. Be available to the Method expert and be patient.
In my opinion, Claritysoft is like a second grader, and Salesforce is like a college graduate when it comes to what you can do and learn from the software. Salesforce integrates easily with other products we use, such as ZoomInfo, but Claritysoft is extremely limited in what it can integrate with. Salesforce costs more money though, so it really depends how you utilize the CRM to know what you need. Just a big address book to log calls and emails? I think Claritysoft is fine. Want to track actual sales and forecast? I think Salesforce 100%.
We were using QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for a very long time. However, the software is archaic and dated. Method allows us to step into the 21st century. We now have much more online / automated interactions with our customers. We like that Method also lets us customize a great deal of the software to our exact needs and wants
It has made it easier to see our overall sales for each sales rep.
The only negative is that we cannot change over the account, contacts, leads, and opportunities with one ownership field. You have to do each one separate and when you are transferring 1000 clients this takes much too long to do. No reason for it.
