Considered Both Products
Dubsado
Chose Dubsado
Dubsado is more customizable and with robust features. Also, the user interface is visually pleasing but definitely has steep learning curve. Once you get the hang of it, it’s very easy especially with other developers helping users create beautiful form, proposals with ease …
Chose Dubsado
I found HB to be too basic for my needs. It's a much easier setup for non techy people, but its not as customizable as Dubsado.
Chose Dubsado
Dubsado is more of an all in one, is affordable for small business and the usability far out weighs any other platform. The automation is reliable and I would never switch to another provider.
Chose Dubsado
I have tried a few alternatives
Honey Book - similar system, Dubsado has much better features in terms of customizing the estimates and allows to automate the sending of forms. I left Honey Book for Dubsado.
Clust Doc - not the same, but it does overlap in terms of automation …
Chose Dubsado
17 Hats was too complicated, not very visually appealing, and very expensive compared to Dubsado.
Chose Dubsado
Dubsado overall is so multifunctional that the other platforms didn't stand a chance. I will say I do use ClickUp alongside Dubsado. Dubsado isn't super awesome for task organization and management, but ClickUp blows all the other task management software out of the water. …

Dubsado is perfect for service-based businesses and I always recommend to my clients, the only time it doesn't work is if someone doesn't have the budget yet or is a start up.

Pipeliner CRM is amazingly flexible to your business model. For example, in addition to tracking movement of leads through your sales pipeline, Pipeliner CRM can be used to track internal processes, like RFQ and RFPs through your organization. It's highly adaptable across your organization.

Pros
  • Invoicing & expense reporting all in one place! I don't have to spend hours poring over my bank account transactions to find my biz expenses anymore!
  • The built-in call scheduler is awesome! I can create various appointment schedulers with multiple availabilities, and collect payments right up front, too!
  • Dubsado also has a sweet Client Portal where my clients can login and see all their activity with me at a glance.

Currently the company is using the Pipeliner CRM because we believe it is a tool that puts the customer as the main focus of business processes in order to understand and anticipate their needs, and then serve them in the best way.

Usability
There are no words I can say to accurately capture how much Dubsado has changed my client onboarding experience (And also how much time it has saved me!!!!)
Read full review
I gave that rating level because it reflects both my satisfaction and expectations about PipelinerCRM.Plus, the adoption rate of this software. I mean the usability rate is very low. It just takes, for learning, a couple of hours less than three days roughly. Return on time investment is low also.

Support Rating
They don’t have live support chat but they have email support. They get back to their customers fairly quickly and continues to provide free resources that will help users understand how it works. The only thing is that they take time when it comes to implementing features that makes so much sense to implement given many users have encountered similar issues while using the tool. But they have a great social community so that helps.
Read full review
The support from Pipeliner CRM is superb; they have instant customer support and they are on time. They also give enough knowledge of sales and other material for the knowledge. They also have AI in the support by talking with customer support directly from the web or app and so on.

Dubsado is more customizable and with robust features. Also, the user interface is visually pleasing but definitely has steep learning curve. Once you get the hang of it, it’s very easy especially with other developers helping users create beautiful form, proposals with ease without needing to know how to code. HoneyBook is not available for people outside USA & Canada. I haven’t used 17hats for a very long time but the user interface is pretty much the same

Return on Investment
  • It takes a lot of time to set up, but once you do (or hire a professional) you will have an amazing and efficient system that allows for an excellent client experience
  • Having tried other platforms, I appreciate the customizable features of Dubsado not found elsewhere. Its workflows/automations are superior to some other systems
Read full review
  • As a VisualCRM tool, our clients sales teams seem to accelerate their deal closes.
  • The visual tools allow those "no good deals" to be spotted and resource usage limited.
  • A great tool to manage those "pipelines" within the company. A pipe is really a series of actions that constitute a planned result.
