CopperLess Annoying CRM
Considered Both Products
Copper
Chose Copper
It's the perfect bridge between advance for our needs, and simple for our team to actually use it, and learn it quickly.
Chose Copper
Unlike Copper, I find Hubspot not as intuitive when it comes to their dashboard and customization. Copper offers much better value without having to pay for multiple add-on modules.
Chose Copper
We outgrew pipedrive and moved into Copper.
After about a few years our sales teams grew and we needed a global slution for all teams across the globe, hence, moved into Hubspot.
Chose Copper
I have only watched reviews of a few other CRMs before seeing Copper so I was lucky enough to find Copper early on in the search.
Chose Copper
Much prefer Zoho based on the full spectrum of items Zoho offers
Chose Copper
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 …
Chose Copper
We selected Copper over these other CRMs mainly because of its ability to integrate with Google Workspace. Members of our team have used Salesforce in the past and found it to be a nightmare to work with/on. Candidly, Copper doesn't fill all of our needs so we supplement that …
Chose Copper
When I switched from being an employee to employer, one of my first tasks was to find a CRM that was suitable for me. Moving from Pipedrive to Copper was an easy decision. I only needed a place to store my contacts, have a great calendar, and be able to email directly from …
Chose Copper
Much less expensive and easier to set and use than Salesforce. We did not evaluate other systems.
Chose Copper

The software is designed to mimic the look of Google products. This makes it easy to use for people already familiar with Google products.

It syncs with G Suite apps like Google Contacts and Google Calendar, and it is directly accessible from Gmail. It appears as a sidebar …

Chose Copper
Copper is cheaper than Hubspot if you have a lower amount of users and still need advanced features. However, the TERRIBLE customer service and DECEPTIVE cancellation policy should make you think twice before trying to save a few bucks.
Chose Copper
I selected Copper because of its interface with all things Google, specifically the sync feature for calendar and capture of email correspondence. It made sense to use Copper because our corporate communications is built on the Google platform. Bloomerang is an excellent tool …
Chose Copper
More complete than SugarCRM by a long shot with reporting and ability to seamlessly integrate with ANYTHING at all. Less complicated than Salesforce Lightning from implementation and maintenance but Copper lacks deep customization ability and sheer size. Zoho CRM is a dying CRM …
Chose Copper
Copper is right in the middle in terms of price when comparing other CRMs, which is actually pretty awesome because I've used about 10 other CRM's and I've never been happy until I started using Copper. Pipedrive was very competitively priced, but I couldn't stand the UI. …
Chose Copper
I didn't have much authorization in the selection of Copper, however, I have looked into switching costs and leaving Copper due to their limited workflow automations. Hubspot and Salesforce look more robust and integrated with our other marketing tools.

We are too sunk in with …
Chose Copper
Copper is simple and free, and we didn’t have a need for a more elaborate CRM that didn’t have event specific features. We do utilize a more specific marketing flow for drip campaigns but for basic email tracking for sales, Copper does what it needs to.
Chose Copper
For my company, we chose Copper over Salesforce and HubSpot for a few reasons. First and foremost, G-Suite integration. This was one of the most attractive features we liked about Copper. The integration allows for seamless lead import, automated activity tracking and much …
Chose Copper
ProsperWorks is just an amazing lightweight CRM. Unless you're a large organization that needs to build out crazy custom reporting and tools that integrate into your CRM, Prosperworks is the best bet. Instead of being an IT project that you need to get a bunch of other people …
Chose Copper
ProsperWorks had the robust Google Apps integration, Forecasting, Roles/Permissions, and Opportunity Tracking and the price point was right for us. All of the other softwares we evaluated (except Salesforce) where missing one or more of the features. We didn't go with …
Chose Copper
It is a very powerful tool to the level of Sugar and SalesForce. With its tight integration, as a Google product, it is seamless and really assists in managing communication with clients. While Zoho offers a great low-cost solution, ProsperWorks definitely hits the mark for …
Chose Copper
We selected to test ProsperWorks and then switched back to Insightly because we had workflows set up and training created specific to Insightly. The cost for Prosperworks with fewer features than our current CRM made it easy to decide to switch back, at least for now. We might …
Chose Copper
I find Sales Force to be way more complex than my needs. Sales Force is difficult to configure, It is expensive, and not user friendly. I currently use both products daily.
Chose Copper
We did not evaluate anything else - I wasn’t a part of the decision to purchase
Chose Copper
The story of this review, Monday.com features should be replicated across Copper.
Less Annoying CRM
Chose Less Annoying CRM
Less Annoying CRM is so much easier to use and is at least as powerful if not more in the areas that matter to me as a small business owner. The way you do things in Less Annoying CRM are the ways that common sense would dictate you do them. It doesn't overcomplicate things …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
No CRM comes ready to run out of the box. But Less Annoying CRM is close to it. It all comes down to your needs . To get started Less Annoying CRM is by far the fastest and easiest route. Less Annoying CRM doesn't have all the bells and jingles rather more or less what you …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
Simpler and more versatile than Pipedrive, where I actually get to speak with a customer service rep rather than be provided instructional recorded videos when I need help.
Chose Less Annoying CRM
I used Salesforce in the past when I worked for a large corporation. Less Annoying CRM seems to be more user friendly and very simple to implement
Chose Less Annoying CRM
The name says it all. Less Annoying CRM is less annoying. I don't have to invest vast amounts of time learning or bypassing features I will never use. I don't have to pay for those features either. Less Annoying CRM is much more intuitive, so I don't have to waste type learning …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
We chose Less Annoying CRM because when searching for a good CRM, we found this program had everything we needed at an affordable rate. When you are a private business owner, you have several business expenses, so to get everything we needed in the price range that was also …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
HubSpot has a huge selection of tools, reports, integrations and supports that Less Annoying does not have.
It is not comparable in price or functionality - but I am comparing it because it was the last CRM I used before I used Less Annoying, and it made me realize that if you …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
Insightly turned out to be so rigid, it did not meet our needs. They were very hard to get in contact with, never by placing a call. And they have questionable business practices, forced us into paying for another year of service we had no intention of using. Their product …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
I stopped using Salesforce because it has way too much stuff in it that I would never use. I consider LACRM a client management tool as well as a CRM, I don't need it to follow trends, forecast, or mass email. I am sure it may have some capabilities of these features but I will …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
I used ACT! heavily in the 1990's to great success in my sales/account management job. It was a great tool at the time. But it seems ACT! hasn't kept up with the market and the current reviews reflect it - "clunky," "out of date," "cumbersome" were common in many of the …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
I did not like Salesforce because it was over engineered for what a sales person. The cells were too small to read easily when entering contacts. There were lots of irrelevant cells in the contact form. Required fields (I know this was our administrator) were excessive and not …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
keap does better if you want to spend the money to create fully automated campaigns. If you want a CRM that helps manage prospect and clients Less Annoying CRM wins
Chose Less Annoying CRM
Less Annoying CRM is easier to use than all of the CRMs that I listed here, but I’m sure all those other ones have a place for those companies and I’m sure that they optimize the data flow and all that other good stuff. Frankly, Less Annoying CRM is just so much easier and …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
We just felt like ACT was being to feel archaic and simply for storage of information. I was tasked with finding an alternative, and found Less Annoying CRM while searching and comparing options. This will probably be my lasting legacy long after I retire from the company! …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
I have used 5 separate CRM's in my career and Less Annoying CRM is the best due to it's simplicity and scope of knowledge that can be stored and retrieved. The amazing thing is it COSTS LESS. Tech support is great and you don't need to hire an outside firm to fix or set up …
Chose Less Annoying CRM
We looked at Industry CRM software but they were all too complicated and difficult to navigate and needed extensive training,
Chose Less Annoying CRM
Less Annoying CRM is far less expensive and not burdened with lots of useless (for me) features. It has exactly what I need and is very easy to use. Further, tech support is easily accessed and available.
Chose Less Annoying CRM
It's much more easy to navigate. Better website. Better overall look. More organized.

CopperLess Annoying CRM
Likelihood to Recommend
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.

Less Annoying CRM is an excellent system for us as we log everything we do with a customer and has easy access to the imfromation later. May sound "of course" but this is by far the easiest CRM I've ever worked with during my 30 years in sales. Follow-up and scheduling is easy managable as well as designing forms and fields our selves. Less Annoying CRM has a good list of plug'ins to other software for integrational puposes. Most important to us is support when needed. Less Annoying CRM excels in its support. Don't hesitate, it doesn't do everything, but get started and get surprised

Pros
  • 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.

  • Simple, intuitive usage
  • Daily agenda emails
  • Ease of moving calendar / action items around, closing out
  • Customer service is extremely responsive, they don't hide behind a "contact us" form on their website as so many companies seem to do. You can readily reach them by phone!

Cons
  • 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

  • The one thing I was looking for is a place to manage multiple businesses with one project. Like if I am selling a "summer camp guide," I would like to have info for sales in one place with multiple contacts and businesses. LACRM customer service provided a workaround for me by suggesting I set up a specific pipeline for each project and them put each business in there. It is working great and, actually, a much better way to manage the project than I have originally intended.
  • I really don't have anything else to add. LACRM is perfect for us.

Usability
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.

I knew nothing about CRMs, and within a day of purchasing Less Annoying CRM, I was able to set up my contacts list with custom fields. After a brief call to Customer Service, I was able to set up my first pipelines and understand how to use them. This CRM is so simple to use, and extremely versatile.

Support Rating
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.

Customer support is fantastic with these guys, they’re always very prompt to answer, and the team is very personable and easy to work with. I can’t really say much more than that, my interactions have been fairly limited, but what interactions I had, I can see without a shadow of a doubt they were very enjoyable and swift in resolving my issues.

After explaining that I was moving from Salesforce and the problems I was encountering, they took over and implemented the data in such a quick and efficient way, I was looking for the other shoe to drop but they did an amazing job so very impressed

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.

Return on Investment
  • 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.

  • Not just storage of information, but utilizing that information to build stronger relationships with clients
  • Because it's web-based, we can be at our desk or on the road and still have the full functionality of the CRM at our fingertips, which helps us keep focusing on sales!
