Automated attaching of all email activity direct to records in the database, easy to get started and find your way around Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
sometimes complex to create relationships, reports are hard to set up and create without a great knowledge of the system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The level of configuration is excellent and, whilst there is a great deal of potential for customisation, it is user friendly enough not to require finite detail and so is quick to change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The reporting suite would be significantly improved through the functionality of cross tab reporting, rather than just list reports. This would reduce the need to export to Excel for manipulation in some cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of transferring contact date from Outlook to Workbooks. Also whilst Workbooks is clearly a bespoke product, it can easily be adapted to suit the needs of your own business. Workbooks offer consultancy work to perform much of this for you or can train an administrator so you can do it in house

Sometrimes the WOC can be a bit unstable and not start up but it's fine as you can just re enable the add in in Outloook options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workbooks is very simple to use once you get you head around it. I have used Salesforce in previous jobs so the lack of drag and drop features was a little weird at first but their 'list' system has really grown on me now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The dashboards could do with some serious updating. They have a very old school look and feel to them but not in a cool retro way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to link suppliers, customers, transactions, emails and more is a great feature which we have used extensively.
The CRM is incredibly flexible and can be customised for different users, user levels etc. It is an all round package! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The reporting function is very difficult to use at first and takes some getting used to. The user guides and help area can be a bit difficult to use and can often to help answer your question.
Also, Workbooks can be slow when you have lots of reports/ documents open, this can be a pain and can freeze your laptop but this happens with most CRMS! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Support team are always there at any time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bugs from reports, organizations, country, records and etc.
Mailshots limitation.
No communication with other integrating email provider companies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's high level of functionality and customisation. If there is something that I want to do, I pretty much know there will be a way of doing it, it's just a case of working out how. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The back end is incredibly complicated and takes a lot of getting used to. It's quite quirky in places and not very intuitive. There are tons of help videos that do make the process easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's all about the process - follow the instructions and inputs correctly, and it will do the rest for you. Also customisable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can be 'buggy' - despite following an iterative process and personalising your WB, can still lead to problems with end result Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use interface, most information is easy to find, through the use of filters/landing pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Layout rules and permissions could do with some improvement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
