C2CRM has totally modified the way we used to manage our sales and marketing. We can now manage the budget and proposals using it. Also, its interface is simple and navigation through this software is very smooth. Its reporting tool is so precise and possesses all the details. What is not appealing about this software is its price which is sky-high and unaffordable for us. But if someone is looking for a tool to manage their sales, C2CRM is the perfect one for managing customer relations and satisfaction.

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.

Cons
  • It lacks customizability for some special categories, so more frequent updates would be more useful for workflow.
  • It possesses all the features we needed most, but there should be remote access and asset management too.
  • High-quality networking is required to complete the procedure otherwise its various features can be lost.

  • I believe there is room for improvement with scaling down on the customizing (sometimes having too much isn't always a good thing)
  • The estimate creator in Method is not as fluid as making an estimate in QB. (moving lines around, adding lines, etc.)

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.

Support Rating
C2CRM delivers us the best features for improving business tasks and it is very handy for launching new products in front of others. I can easily gather all the detail of customers in one place and we can discuss and increase product marketing. Its social media integration is great to advertise product features, so that's why I really like it.

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.

It is the best CRM software in the market because its sale area is very enjoyable. Almost all features and tools of C2CRM are good. They give good customer service.

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
