What do you like best about SuiteCRM?

SuiteCRM is an unrestricted product with more options available than any organisation is ever likely to use.

.

Much like your mobile phone & its apps, it's comforing to know that many modules & extensions are either already there or available to accomodate changing needs as a CRM (or any software) is developed & integrated into a company's workflow. Added to that is the ability to create custom modules without the need for a computer programmer.

.

If, in 2 years time, someone says "we need it to do this!" then you have the best chance of being able to simply say "Yes". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuiteCRM?

Not a lot, perhaps it's a little rude to say, but I've yet to see a web interface (Theme) that I really like.

.

SuiteCRM (AKA Sales Agility) have tried to improve that several times & it may be just my preference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SuiteCRM:

SuiteCRM is very comprehensive & therefore confusing to get started with .

.

Much like a new mobile phone, I'd strongly suggest that as many modules as possible are "hidden" until they are needed for specific applications.

.

Perhaps it's wise to set it up as simply a database of your main game (I.E. Companies, clients, contacts, etc) & then allocate access permissions from that.

.

Then integrate one module at a time until each is effective & then move to the next.

.

The confusion of trying everything at once is why 80% of CRM implementations fail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SuiteCRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about SuiteCRM?

SuiteCRM is open source. That means you can do a lot of customization within the platform. I like that the contact records give you the ability to schedule upcoming calls, meetings and tasks. I like that I can log notes, calls, emails and meetings against a contact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuiteCRM?

I dislike the user interface. It feels like SuiteCRM is a database that had a user interface designed on top of it. However, the work flow for the sales rep is cumbersome. My experience with other CRM products has been simpler.

The system administrator that implements SuiteCRM should sit down with a sales manager and think through how to make the day-to-day data entry with the CRM as easy as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SuiteCRM:

If you have a strong technical staff member and a sales director that can work together to implement a streamlined sales process with SuiteCRM then this could be a good solution for you. However, there are other solutions that are relatively inexpensive and can be quickly implemented to achieve the same business results without the hassle of managing and customizing the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SuiteCRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our sales team needed a CRM to keep track of customer information, log interactions and manage our sales pipeline. Our management (IT) wanted to have a CRM that could be modified, integrated with other systems and hosted in a local and secure environment.

The system has helped us to schedule follow up with customers and also helps with sales forecasting and pipeline management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about SuiteCRM?

Full featured CRM for all kinds of customers, associates, partners and subtractors. Even complemented with project and task management as well as email client inside. The ability to change and modify the existing forms is the best after the accomodation period is done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuiteCRM?

Some limitations about the UI and database configuration, like one-to-many cases that are not by default implemented in suite. Also, I would like that backup process of app UI/def can be automated as well... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SuiteCRM:

Flexible and powerfull CRM suite for 90% of needs for non "I-want-my-ERP-software" companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SuiteCRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

Database of customers, partners, assocciates and documentation (Sales, presales). I can distinguish the types of documentations by myself and that is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SuiteCRM?

SuiteCRM allows businesses to create a completely customizable platform for their organization. Whether its creating custom fields, or running variable reports - Suite offers fairly comprehensive solutions for organizations of all sizes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuiteCRM?

Though it is fully customizable, it can sometimes be difficult to integrate with other softwares and systems. Additionally, I find Suite to have a few too many bugs that sometimes prevents our organization from being as efficient as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SuiteCRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are able to pull targeted client lists, and our Sales Team is able to track their efforts in one single platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SuiteCRM?

Unlike most CRM's, SuiteCRM doesn't have varying degrees of functionality dependant upon what you want to pay. As it is free and open source everything is immediately available to you at no cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SuiteCRM?

If you want to fully customise the product to your exact needs then you will need someone with the technical know how. There are menus available to help with his but for a fully customised version to suite your needs then you will need some help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SuiteCRM:

Just be clear about what you need from your CRM system. Also just be aware that you might need some customisation that you may not be able to perform yourself and so there might be a small charge for this but as the software is free and has unlimited users, you save thousands when compared to other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SuiteCRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

Everything! We run everything from this system now. It gives us full visibility for all departments of our customers and leads and it also helps with project management projects too. It gives us the ability to find out more about our customers, giving us a greater insight into our business and helps us drive sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Any cusotmisations are rather finicky and some features are missing that are avaiable on other free systems.

Spend a lot of time researching how to modify the system beforehand or else time will be wasted on research that could be used developing/modifying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are storing huge amounts of client details in a system that has a easy to understand visual ui. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
