Email automation, segmenting and tagging really help manage leads and customers. The business dashboards gives a visual snapshot of your analytics, sales and more.

it is very complicated at the beginning (you will have steep learning curve) Sometimes the software is rather slow. Support has some time until answers are given (it is best if you can get quickly to the second level support)
