Keap vs. LeadMaster

Keap is very good at contact management and automation creation but weaker at email campaign creation. I was particularly interested in a function where when manually entering a new contact, you are then able to email that contact using a premade HTML template. It will currently not do this. There is a workaround, but it is unnecessarily ponderous.

My company works with a client who offers a SaaS solution to
the beauty sector. We had been using Salesforce for three years but needed a
system with lead nurturing, workflow automation, and user-friendliness that
Salesforce lacked without a hefty monthly price tag.

We are taking use of LeadMaster's eMarketing, automation,
and workflow management capabilities as well as the streamlined nature of the
Professional Edition. We've been able to better regulate the sales process and
boost our conversion rate as a result.

We have been very pleased with LeadMaster's customer service
and would suggest their product without reservation.

We have invested a lot into Infusionsoft and are using it to automate our processes and marketing. Changing CRMs would have a HUGE cost for us and based on our evaluations, the grass isn't greener elsewhere. Infusiosoft fits most of our needs and is slowly getting better each year. Their support is great and we will continue to use them until something much better comes around or our company outgrows a small business CRM.

You do need to spend some time on-boarding and implementing the software in order to have full functionality. We were lucky - we had colleagues at the university with experience with Keap and then hired an intern familiar with the software to get us set up and ready to use it. We've had some functionality issues with it along the way and that has frustrated myself and the other uses in our department.

My ability to more effectively manage the workflow in our office has been greatly enhanced by LeadMaster. Each member of my team is aware of the students they are responsible for recruiting and the specific process that should be followed with each and every one of them. The system also enables us to practically eliminate the use of paper in our process, which helps to reduce the number of different types of office errors.

There have been few outages since we became a customer, and when they have technical issues they are typically resolved rapidly.

I haven't had any performance issues with Infusionsoft. Every time I use the software everything seems to run quickly and smoothly.

Generally, very responsive support for even our more complicated issues. We do have some open issues that we need resolutions on and that I understand are complicated and will take longer to resolve but the open issues are significantly impacting to our business.

The reason to give this rating because of the following.

1. Assessing the efficiency of campaigns involving
several agencies and points of contact

2. True close loop reporting

3. The capacity to manage a channel through the use
of features for updating leads and pipelines.

4. Ensuring that no leads were lost and that they
were always assigned to someone for follow-up, whether the lead originated
through e-marketing, the filling out of a form on a website, or even a lead
from a trade fair

5. Creating a seamless connection between marketing
and lead generating

This training is taught often to the lowest common denominator so as to help as many customers of theirs as possible. We do the training and coaching and implementations for our clients. But clients who I know who have been to their training get trained well. The gap that can exist lies in you doing your part and really investing in using and building out the application. The training and education is only as good as your willingness to apply it.

The results of training online are often based on how people learn. The training was great but with feature updates, you just have to get in there sometimes and do it! The training definitely lays a firm enough foundation for you to be successful even if its can't be updated with every feature update.

If you do this by yourself it will likely take you 6-9 months to get it entirely set up, unless you have a full-time dedicated person handling it. I recommend hiring a prof service company to implement it for you. They should be able to do it all in 90 days or less.

Keap is fast. The learning curve is shorter and they have an academy for learning with videos quite extensive that explain a lot of different scenarios, specially when you need to customize scenarios of automations and segments. Is cheaper if you consider that this services CRM + Mailing don´t come often in one package and the realiability to send mails is quite good.

My client has been using Salesforce for the past two years,
but they were looking for a system that would provide lead nurturing, workflow
automation, and overall ease of use – functionality that was just not available
within Salesforce without incurring a large, monthly fee. I'm using one of my
clients who has been using Salesforce for the past two years.

Because of LeadMaster's user-friendliness, robust automation
and workflow management, and eMarketing capabilities, we have decided to employ
the Professional Edition. As a result, we are able to better regulate the sales
process and achieve a higher closure rate.

You get a lot of features included, but you don't need to use them all at once to start seeing an effect. When you are ready to use them, they are there. It also scales without costing too much money.

• Automation has allowed us to be more engaged and invested in our customers by reminding us about birthdays and other important events in their lives so that we can celebrate with them.
• We lacked the manpower to sell and distribute orders online before setting up the payments and automation features. We now collect $5k+ a week in lost sales through online ordering.
• List cleaning functionality and engagment settings have allowed us to run a 40-50% email open rate that allows us to create an engaged community around local events and opportunities as well as sales and special offerings.
