Close or Hubspot or Pipedrive

I reckon it can be a subjective one but let's only consider the main CRM functionalities like pipeline mgmt, automation (email sequence, meeting scheduling, etc.) and reporting.

I used close a lot. I took SF, which I also used, out on purpose as it's probably a more complex one ideal for big corps.

I'm curious to know your opinions

@RealPatrickBateman I also use spreadsheets a lot but more for in-depth analysis

Among all, SF is the one I used the most but its usability is still far from the ones I mentioned above 👆

I use SF... because I work for a big complex company.

SF sucks at prospecting automation though. For that I prefer to invest in a prospecting-specific system, such as SalesLoft or Outreach.

I also used SF but I’m gladly willing to change to a more “user friendly “ tool

Eh, the user friendliness of SF is entirely dependent on your company's implementation. I have had both great and terrible SF experiences.

I'm on salesforce and miss staring at hubpots detailed activity view - simply gorgeous, without clicks and scrolling

I've only used Hubspot for like 2 or 3 days and the rest of my sales career I've used salesforce and outreach, and I love them both for what they do.
