    Considered Both Products
    ConnectWise
    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    ConnectWise, does more than one function well for a CRM, it enables managed service providers to place all of their services into a single solution, that helps smooth the running of the business. Now we don't have to have 4+ different software packages to provide customer …

    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    We chose ConnectWise Manage because it has integration into our distribution network. This feature is ok but given all of the other issues, we will more than likely be moving to Dynamics.

    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    ConnectWise Manage is a very complete solution. It is perfect for our business. I believe that Salesforce is better is larger environments, but do believe that ConenctWise Manage could be just as useful in larger environments.

    Chose ConnectWise PSA

    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    We used Goldmine and Heat before but they were not specifically designed for our industry like ConnectWise is.

    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    We selected ConnectWise five years ago because many companies like us were using it, it was recommended to us be many, we were using Microsoft CRM at the time at felt this might be better suited for our business.
    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    I have used SalesForce in the past. It is a much more flexible platform, but ConnectWise has most of the elements we require for our needs.
    Chose ConnectWise PSA
    I have used SugarCRM, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Siebel. From a sales and marketing perspective, ConnectWise does just as good of a job and better in some cases. Pulling mailing lists using a report and assigning activities was much easier in ConnectWise than the …
    Salesforce
    Chose Salesforce Sales Cloud
    After looking at Dynamics, I believe that they are making large strides to compete with the Outlook integration and the social media options.
