How customizable it is; when I had to work on multiple projects, I didn't need to remember every single step because with my team, we have already created the appropriate workflows, which helps us to be more efficient

Does not have some of the features that you might find with other CRM products. It's a bit less progressive in it's new versions as well.

Intuitive interface - it is easy to learn to use this product with reasonable proficiency. Responsive support when you need it - chat and phone. Flexibility provided by numerous integrations - lets you add functionality not offered by the primary program....
