What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

Cirrus allows me to stay in the world I live in (my Inbox) rather than hopping back and forth between SFDC and Inbox. Gone are the days of setting aside dedicated time each day to link emails and client correspondence to opportunities Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

I haven't found anything yet. I do feel like I am only scratching the surface though of the tool but logging emails, creating and updated leads and opportunities is my primary use case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cirrus is increasing my efficiency by allowing me to work in one spot. It makes it easy to log client emails so I am able to capture significantly more activity and keep Leads and Opportunities up to date and easily transferrable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

We love that we can easily distinguish between contacts that are already entered in Salesforce and those are not. It so so easy to enter them if they're not. It makes data entry manageable! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

I'm not sure I've found a dislike yet. Possibly sometimes it takes up some space on the Gmail screen but that's easily fixed since you can toggle the side panel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

It's a great tool to use and integrate with Salesforce. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

It provides an efficient way to keep track of our contacts, schedule meetings, create follow-up tasks, and to have standardized templates sent out that are used by business development. It streamlines what would have been a much manual and time-consuming process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

As part of the statutory requirements of my job, I have to keep a copy of all correspondence between myself and my clients. Cirrus Insights makes this process seamless and hassle free. All incoming and outgoing emails are automatically synced across to the correct Salesforce record. Saving me the time and the need to remember to do this.

The other feature which I rely on is email tracking. Knowing that a client has opened and read an email makes my task so much easier and allows me to tailor my follow-up emails or calls to suit based on whether they have read the information I have sent or not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

This is not so much an issue with Cirrus Insight, but the integration with Salesforce. I am required to enter my sales force login credentials into the system 1 or 2 times a week. This isn't a major issue but can be frustrating when you just want to get things done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

If you need to keep a copy of email correspondence on your clients' records in Salesforce Cirrus Insight makes this a simple process saving you time and removing a potential point of failure in your record keeping. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

As I mentioned above it is meeting my statutory requirements around recording all communication with my clients. Having Cirrus Insight integration between Gmail and Salesforce makes this process seamless and saves me untold hours each month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

Email tracking and insight and Outlook integration is what I use most. It assist me with a better understanding of what is getting to my customers and what is attracting or influencing them the most, lets me know what my clients are engaged in, the ones that I can get responses from simple email campaigns, and others that will require a more direct presentation in person Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

Still has some bug issues from time to time, and does not sync as well as I would like with my Salesforce

With a customized Salesforce URL does not integrate at all from what I can tell, would prefer an ability to simply pull contact information or add contacts to my Outlook contacts from the app, I think that would speed my process as opposed to a cut and past aspect Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

There are other options, and I think I have tried them all, but his has worked the best and offers the most features that benefited me the most Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeps me up to date on email campaigns, who is opening them and how often, helps me target real interest

Lets me know the clients I need to speak with the most and who I need to do more than an email campaign with. So with the book of business I currently have, any aspect that can assist with speeding my process and less windshield time is greatly appreciated and a welcome add on to my business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

In liked the built it SF pane that allows me to work almost only out of my email box without having to toggle and copy information from a system to another. This tool helps me on daily basis keeping track of my work and follow-ups, sales cycle and being able to stay on top on my processes by providing data I can analyse on my campaign initiatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

The only thing I dislike is that it creates an Activity in Salesforce each time I am asking for a follow up and it duplicates entries when doing, should the follow-up be done by email and filed in SF. This false productivity reporting in Salesforce as these "Acitivities" do get completed, and remain lie duplicate of the action taken... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

I would recommend this product to any Salesforce user that wants to have its workforce actually use the CRM and complete information in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Easier follow-ups, Easier data entry in Salesforces, less copy-paste to do between email and Salesforce. Better insight in communication contains that work...or not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

Access to SFDC through gmail, ability to update most salesforce records, ability to relate activity to any object in Salesforce (MAJOR win against competitors!), integrations with other apps like TaskRay Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

Starting in 2017 the quality of basic Cirrus functionality has eroded. Prior to 2017 my company used Cirrus for 3 years without issue. I would have rated it our best performing product from the appexchange. I think with the expansion/ launch of Cirrus's Flight Plans, they've over extended themselves. Simple things like logging emails to salesforce are no longer simple, and I experience monthly bugs that disrupt my team's work. Cirrus: if you're reading this, PLEASE make sure that your basic functionality is in order before you expand to new things!

Here's a list of what's changed for the worse:

1) We have to add to salesforce AFTER sending an email. We used to be able to set up the settings prior to sending (or would send + add to SFDC in one step). If you click 'add to Salesforce' prior to sending the email....Cirrus now logs a blank email. If you click it again after sending....it will log the email twice

2) Cirrus no long has one of it's best features, the AI that automatically would relate the email to the Opportunity (or SFDC record) that the user most often logged email to. Now reps have to look up the record every single time. It's added a lot of time to something that used to be a really elegant feature.

3) I need to use task record types, cirrus does not accommodate. Record types are key to successful SFDC organizations as they scale.

4) Even if my users download the extension at the same time, their setting panels all look different. It's nuts.

5) Getting support assistance used to be much faster and better. Now I rarely come to a resolution with their support team for the bugs I experience

6) BUGS. Unable to log error messages. Bugs in the admin dashboard where I can't manage users or add new ones. Bugs in the side panel. Bugs, bugs bugs. 3 years of no bugs, and now in the past 6 months I've probably had 20+.

It's disappointing because I used to be such a huge advocate for Cirrus but now I'm starting to consider other options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

I would have 100% recommended prior to 2017. Now I would 70% recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Everything about Sales is about speed. The more that I can help my team decrease administrative overhead, the more time they have to work with their clients, and the better my company does. Cirrus (should, and does when it's working) make logging emails mindless and part of a process. I wish they would bring back the "send and add to salesforce" button, so that adding emails to Salesforce is one step instead of 2. Cirrus should keep this in mind, it's what made them Great.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

I like the convenience of attaching an email to Salesforce and the option to move over attachments. I also like that it allows our offsite sales reps to stay integrated with Salesforce through one app rather than having to run between 2 different software platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

We had more bugs with this particular element of our implementation process than anything else. Also, the delay for attachment transfer can be bothersome but is not a deal breaker. We also experienced some mobile issues with the app not functioning properly initially. But all of these we aided by technical support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cirrus Insight:

Get as much training ahead of time as possible and make sure to question whether functions are available for Outlook integration vs. Google/Gmail integration. We found out after the fact on some things that would have been helpful to know at the beginning. Sometimes your sales contact only uses one format and will need to do research to give you appropriate answers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

This has allowed our off site reps to successfully manage client information and documentation while out of the office. It also gives us the chance to quickly update information within Salesforce regardless of the location of the employee or their proximity to a computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

It's fairly easy to use in gmail. I like the sidebar lookup for my contacts, and logging emails is usually seamless. It also allows me to use email templates that I have set up in my CRM and easily merge contact details.

I know there is even more functionality that I don't use! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

One easy fix - put a start email button at in the search side bar. Now I have to search, click the details tab and scroll to copy and paste the email.

The app is confusing. You have to open and respond to emails in the app instead of your gmail app.

I also sometimes toggle back and forth between my work and personal emails, and I got a notification from the app once that a personal email had been read by the recipient. This freaked me out and I deleted the app.

I also don't always think that the tracking is accurate for opens. etc. The app would notify me that an email had been read when I was the one who just opened the email. This part also needs work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Ease of communication, tracking responses, learning what interactions my colleague is having with our contacts before I reach out again.

What do you like best about Cirrus Insight?

All can be completed from Google mail. The simple interface. Ability to look at all my comments and interface with Salesforce without having to use my Salesforce. Being able to individually send my emails to my sales force projects or clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cirrus Insight?

the Task section is a little cumbersome. It would be nice to be able to click into Tasks and navigate easier in and out of sales force and when in the task under the client to be able to set up another task from that section. To have it in a nice table form would be ideal. If I have too many task's you have to scroll through the whole list if it were a table that would work better.

What problems is Cirrus Insight solving and how is that benefiting you?

Mainly tracking of my emails smoothly. I have the flexibility of deciding wether I want to put this in my data base and attach to a specific client or project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
