What do you like best about Workbooks?

The most attractive part of Workbooks is it's flexibility. You can create a new field of any kind on any record type and create reports on any field in the entire database. All data that goes into Workbooks and be used later on through the built in reports or the readily available API reference library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workbooks?

The appearance of Workbooks lets itself down and makes it look as though it's an out of date system. This is not the case, which you discover after you have started using tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workbooks:

Consider all the flexibility you want to have in a CRM tool and I think it would be hard to find a tool that can match Workbooks in this way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We managed our sales pipeline for different sales teams within the business using custom permission levels to ensure confidentiality without losing management oversight of activity. The ready-made Web-to-Leads html script gave us an instant solution to capturing leads from our website straight into Workbooks. The built in email templates can be used forward these leads to our clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workbooks?

Being able to customise almost every part of the Workbooks CRM is great. Changing every detail to match our business and in particular, the commercial training department, to meet our needs. Its been easy to learn and grow my knowledge, without turning to Google searches or spending much time on the support forums. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workbooks?

The fact that I can't change the entire background from the standard blue. It is possible to change the logo in the very corner of the screen but I would like to match the background with our business colours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workbooks:

Try it, the trial is free. Once you start getting in to it you will wonder how you lived (worked) without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have solved the issue of managing multiple events. Training courses, assessments, labour requests and more. Our business is based around the Rail and Construction labour supply and training industry. I've managed to customise workbooks to make these two business areas work in tandem from the same system, while giving us the ability to manage individual tasks. Keeping in touch with customers/clients is now far easier through the mail shot function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I must say that sometimes importing data and mapping could be quite frustrating however, workbooks team have supported us every time we had any issues regarding this - so nothing to dislike really! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The fact that we have a centralised database where we can see exactly who's who and how much engagement we had from our clients. Its great to be able to see what the sales do and how marketing can help to improve it - all the info you need is in one place and so its easy to navigate through and find notes and any interaction done with a particular person.

Recommendations to others considering Workbooks:

Try to get a trial before you commit to an expensive contract. If you have very specific requirements from a CRM then ensure that Workbooks delivers these requirements in practice. Be prepared to spend money on getting Workbooks to customise their product to your requirements - don't think that you can do this yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Integration of sales and support customer databases and communications archive. After two years we are yet to fully realize the benefits of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
