    Chose Method:CRM
    Method:CRM is a more affordable and user-friendly CRM. It is easier to manage Method:CRM without having to purchase a bunch of add-ons like you do with Salesforce. You get what you see in the demonstration without hidden costs. The ability to create custom fields is great. …

    Chose Method:CRM
    Method communicates with QuickBooks better than Salesforce did. Method also provides better tools for notes and opportunities than Business Central or ACT!

    Chose Method:CRM
    Easier to use than Autorask or Manage. Less expensive than Salesforce while still delivering a lot of functionality, 8n a slightly less elegant fashion.

    Chose Method:CRM

    Chose Method:CRM
    Method is by far the easiest of all platforms. It brings a lot of great features that Salesforce has as well as email campaign features like constant contact, all in one. The only thing I would add would be more reporting and custom report capability.

    Sales Development Consultant in Sales at Wilco Electronic Systems Inc (Telecommunications, 1-10 employees)
    Chose Method:CRM
    I believe that Method:CRM is far superior to Salesforce and the others mentioned above for the following reasons:
    1. It is scalable and affordable.
    2. It doesn't take an engineering degree to learn how to use it.
