What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

Fast, intuitive, mobile, adopts easy, customer success support, ability to adjust system to meet business needs. With most of our staff on the road and away from their desks, the mobile version of BASE was very important and well received. It was by far the best we've seen during the CRM vetting process. The metrics were what we needed and the smartlist features are extremely helpful in our day-to-day business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

There are no issues with BASE at this time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

The BASE customer success team is the best in the CRM industry. They are very knowledgeable and quick to react. The mobile version and desktop version are nearly the same which makes adoption and usage success easily obtainable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

We implemented 60 years of history quickly and it became very well organized. The collaboration and visibility across different segments of our business has been well received and beneficial to all. The metrics available easily fit our business. The ability to also change and manipulate the system is very helpful to the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

Mobile access, easiest, most intiutitve CRM tool I've ever experiences. Everytime I show my colleagues how to use the program, they marvel at how easy it is. Additionally, I can create custom reports simply and the few times there's been an exception, the Base support team is readily available to support us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

Notes field cannot be queried/reported. And the Standard Reports aren't able to be customzed. I'd love to use some of those Custom Reports as a basis for my Sales Reporting, and add a few key fields which our management team would like to see. Not available as of yet! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

Definitely do a demo, keep your criteria in mind, and let Base rep show you how they can meet your needs. Have to say, the support we got in migrating data and customizing Base for our firm blew me away - fast, efficient, worked day and night to get us up and running, despite difficult data migration from ACT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

Able to quickly report on Wins, Proposals, Sales Activity. Benefits we've realized is a lot more INSTANT transparency across our organization which cuts down on phone & email back-and-forth (less bite into productivity). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

I've used a ton of different CRMs over the years for real estate, and Base is easily the best - thus taking the time to write this review. It's very easy to customize and set up, and I've been able to bring basically all of my activities into one platform with it, from calls and emails to deal tracking and monitoring closings, setting reminders for due dates on paperwork etc. It's easy to track leads, clients, and closings all in one system without too much thought on how to make it work and without getting them mixed up. It also has a fully integrated phone system and dialer, plus an email and text message integration, all of which automatically log any calls, emails, or texts sent or received from leads in the database. This saves a lot of time in writing notes, as well as making sure the information is transcribed accurately. One of the biggest pluses, especially for a web-based CRM, is their customer service, which is top-notch. I'm admittedly a little bit of a high-maintenance client, especially with new software, and these guys are right on top of it. I think I currently have four different customer service reps patiently answering different questions from me - usually on questions that can be found in the "Help" section if I really looked, but they don't mind taking the time, it seems, and I appreciate that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

There are a few small features that are still in the works, but none of them really inhibit the usability of the software. For example, when you click-to-call a number out of the database, and it logs the call, it doesn't actually log which specific phone number the call was sent or received to - just the lead. That said, an easy fix is just to copy/paste the phone numbers into the notes field as you go, voila problem solved. The only issues I've had with the software are like that - easy workarounds. Plus, I'm pretty confident they'll get any little wrinkles ironed out - they're very receptive to user feedback and feature requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

They give a 30-day free trial with a full-service version up front. If you're considering using it, there's no reason not to give it a shot. Implementation and customization is really easy and straightforward, once you start clicking around in it you'll be off in no time, especially if you're familiar with using CRMs in general. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

Optimized my sales process to an extremely high level, better than ever. I'm able to make substantially more calls more quickly and easily track all of them. Saving the time of inputting notes (because it automatically logs EVERYTHING, calls/emails/texts whatever) is a convenience I wasn't looking for, but now that I have it I doubt I'll ever give it up. Solved a problem I didn't know I had, in a word. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

I'm pleased with the versatility of the fields and options that can be selected and how few limits there are to smart lists. You aren't fit into a box or a single process line. You can do what you want with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

There are some mandatory fields that can create clutter. The map view of client accounts is only available via the phone mobile app and the logging tools are really only great for virtual contact, not logging onsite visits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

Keep it simple! Clutter fields prevent employees from using it and while the idea of having a lot of data may seem nice, it doesn't really help utilization. Too many fields, pipelines, etc... makes everything very difficult for the average user to find what they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using Base for account management for subscription based services and for our retention policies. The simplicity of the software allows us to re-purpose linear start to finish work with open ended maintenance quite easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

- Graphical analytics that are filterable by date, category, team member, etc.

- Parent/child relationships with deals/companies, etc.

- Ability to customize stages and link deals

- Customizable "My Task" list on dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

Though I find the auto email tracking function, one thing I find can be an enhanced user experience is how to categorize the emails so that if Person A is affiliated with 3 deals, the deal view pulls in the appropriate email thread. Currently, I'm not sure how that is processed and populated on the deal pages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

Taking advantage of creating filters and stages for you sales and relationship cycles are key because you can retrieve data from CRM specific to how you have set up the filters and stages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

Customer and sales cycle management and documentation along with sales goals tracking and data regarding sales cycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the dash board Caterogies are helpful but I would like for it to let us add our own categories Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

- that I have to reload the page several times for me to make a call

- the filters are not very useful- when I put a filter to see all the students that answered false to a question I don't get a list of students with their answer next to them I get a list of students with a dates and price number next to it so its not helpful at all

- when I put notes on a contact it doesn't appear on the deals page or vice versa Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

Base CRM is a great CRM, has a great phone app and the sync is unmatched from my experience with CRM’s. Base is a verey robust CRM and affordable, as in the free version. I have used Base CRM for many years and from CRM"s outside of my industry I have found Base CRM to be the easiest to use and the most mobile friendly app, both for iPhone and for Android. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

I would like to see better options in Base CRM but every CRM has its quirks so I really can say that this is a fabulous CRM. I was never happy that every time someone called me Base would want to know what to do with the call. I think that's a good feature on an auto-dialer or the like but not on a personal cell phone. Perhaps Base CRM can introduce an alternative feature like a "decide later" what to do with previous calls. I think that would enhance the app and make it awesome for on the go sales warriors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

I am solving automation and mainstreaming of my sales cycle by using this fabulous CRM of Base CRM which really helps my business. I hope Base CRM will introduce an alternative feature like a "decide later" what to do with previous calls. I think that would enhance the app and make it awesome for on the go sales warriors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Zendesk Sell solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving automation and mainstreaming of my sales cycle by using this fabulous CRM of Base CRM which really helps my business. Prospecting is much easier by using Base CRM. By using Base CRM I improve my prospecting and I'm able to fill my pipeline in a more efficient manner. Using Base CRM also allows my team members to view activity and track sales. By utilizing Base CRM to it's fullest potential we can truly move into 2018 with a competitive edge in sales and marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Zendesk Sell?

I like the app based interface best- it's easy to make calls and log calls from the road. I also like how you can set tasks as reminders to check in with the customers again in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Zendesk Sell?

I do not like how contact fields and deal fields are not streamlined/connected so you can't run reports that align the two types of records. It makes it challenging to email all contacts with a potential deal type when the person records are not connected to the deal. It makes it challenging to identify the different types of opportunities, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Zendesk Sell:

I recommend putting time and thought into how you develop your contacts vs. deals in order to ensure they are functional for your team to use effectively. I also recommend classifying "contact types" so you can bulk email specific audience groups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
