monday CRM vs. Sage CRM

I think it's a fantastic tool for a small business or startup. It has many of the same features as other CRMs, and my favorite thing about it are the pre-built Sales Dashboards that generate your forecast, pipeline, deal value, everything you would expect to see when analyzing your sales efforts. I think the parts of it that aren't as scalable are the outbound sales efforts with email. I don't think you can set up drip campaigns or automated workflows through monday the way you can through HubSpot and Salesforce.

• Sage CRM is very intuitive and easy to use. The benefit to organizations using this system is that users will find executing daily tasks seamless and accessing historical information easily while selling or servicing customers and prospects.
• The dashboards and reporting are extensive at both a global and a client level. In addition, these reports and dashboards are available through any interface (smartphone, tablet, browser). This makes accessing real time information in a meaningful way available to users easy through any device wherever the user is located.
• Escalations and workflow are also very powerful. Sage CRM uniquely provides the ability for users to execute workflow from within the context of the dashboards. What this means is that every day tasks can be executed quickly without lots of time searching through client records.

• Perhaps individual archive boards for individual boards - sometime's it's difficult to locate an archived item to account when something is done so until projects are finished, I often leave items on the board when it could be 'cleaner'
• More color shades for groups and labels
• Keep adding new widgets for dashboards to provide an even greater overview

• Reliance on Apache Tomcat causes a lot of headaches. There are common issues trying to start up the server, resulting from Apache Tomcat misconfigurations, or Java. Some forum posts on Sage City address common issues, but digging into server logs seems to be an often occurrence.
• Support is somewhat lacking, less user install base means error messages are sometimes hard to find quick answers for. Most of the knowledge found on the internet is in the Sage City forum.
• Integration with Microsoft 365 causes you to have to turn off some security features. This will result in your 365 tenants running lower security standards than recommended, it may put you at risk for targeted attacks.

There are really no other words to say, it is a very easy to use application that is more straightforward and has provided better results with the bulk of features that appeal to a very broad amount of users. There may be other CRM platforms out there that are more prevalent, but I have found them to be much more clunky and less intuitive than Sage CRM.

It was a little tricky when I first set up all of my automations and to kind of navigate my board and create it initially. So now that it's set up it's super easy to use so that's why I gave a seven in this rating.

Excellent integration with the most important social networks (LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter) to get leads. The mobile app is quite useful for speeding up the tasks at hand and not relying on the computer or being in the office to get them done.

Sage works very quickly based on the network you are using it on. It is internet based so if your network is slow, it will perform slowly. Reports seem to run reasonably fast, if there is too much information it is trying to populate that could slow it down a little. When Sage CRM is integrated with a Sage ERP product it doesn't tend to slow down either system at all

We only ever needed to us the FAQs and quick google searches as everything we needed to do was very straightforward and intuitive to do. We found the simple and easy design and interface helped prevent having any issues. A colleague did need to reach out for help and stated that it was quick and useful

Support team is really slow and they need to work on this really. Sometimes it takes days to resolve a simple query and there is no way to get it expedited. Rest the product is is amazing but the team should look into the costumer support and get it working

The implementation and upgrades were rather quick and straight forward. Attempting to link Sage CRM with Sage 100 ERP however was a nightmare and will be avoided by us in the future due to numerous issues.

I personally perfer monday's interface to Asana's, although they are both very similar in concept. I also feel that monday is better suited for cross-functional project management, which is something necessary to the way Dr. Squatch operates. Asana may be better suited to companies who have smaller teams and a simpler scope of project management, but for a company with the complexity of ours, monday's customizable features and ease of visibility was the better suited platform for our needs.
