Salesflare

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

The platform is very much straightforward. Its e-mail integration makes it all the more simple in tracking interactions with customers. I love its attachment integraiton. Whenever customers are filling out their project needs, not only do I get to look into the description, but I'm able to peek into attachments that lets me understand better their project requirements. Since it's an app on its own, there's no need to go to my e-mail and back.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

I don't favor its G-mail plugin. The UI seems to have zero purpose. I feel the web app is a lot useful in terms of multiple account management. At timese, I don't receive notificactions when I get mentioned or tagged. While this functionality is worthy, it would've been nice if it's consistent all throughout.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

I'm in charge of organizing technical-based for customers who wanted to have their apps built. I organize their app and I come up with a feasible budget and catering to their specific needs. I greatly benefitted in accessing customer interaction. Dealing with numerous accounts can be a tedious. I felt I could always pick up where I've left off.

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

It's very easy to use. You're able to monitor your customer's progress. You get to see the number of times a customer checks the sent e-mail. It's really easy sharing customers/contacts with colleagues. There's also a chance for the team leader to fully take control of the team members.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

I'm not really known to be part of the team directly once an e-mail is sent to the customer. Its functionality is only limited to Google Chrome. In terms of e-mail, it works only with G-mail. Additional steps are needed in order to be linked directly to G-mail.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

Salesflare is capable of monitoring your progress with a customer and contacts you had with the customer. It also shows the number of items a customer has checked the sent e-mail. This offers a clear picture on what you'll need to say or sell. It's also a big help in determining whether it's worth reaching out to the customer once again.

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

I like how you form teams with it. That way, whenever one of my members shoots an e-mail to an organization, their team leader can get on this. When a happens to not be in AIESEC any longer, their leader can still check out companies. The leader can then take over the contract. They're able to look into every e-mail being sent so any precious info won't get lost.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

If an e-mail is being sent to multiple individuals, you won't be able to know who opened or didn't open their e-mail. For instance, if I send an e-mail and I have it opened once again, it'll only inform of the e-mail being opened one time. That's usually the case even if the receiver hasn't opened it yet.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

With Salesflare, we can now determine if anyone opened an e-mail. We also know the number of times a person has opened the e-mail with this software. For example, if the e-mail has been opened a couple times in a few weeks, expect the person to have little or no interest at all. When it's opened several times in a week, we'll know that we need to keep in touch. We'd stll do this even if there's no contract signed.

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

Salesforce lets people in sales (like me) to concentrate on what they're good at: selling services/products. What I dislike with the sales process is doing a lot of inputting/copy-pasting manually. What's even more crazy is the amount of work that needs to be done in figuring out who you'll need to be sending reminders to and when do that at the precise moment. Salesforce tackled both these issue effeciently. In addition, their sales CRM is frequently being updated.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

Salesflare is still in its early stage. That means an inclusion of features we're looking forward to in the future. Its to-do list needs to be a bit intuitive. Their insights and reportings could use some improvement.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

Conversation Starter is one solution that lets event attendees make a connection with relevant individuals. They get to also meet them at a certain event. Event organizers are able to extract insights from their audience. We've connected with thousands of people the past several months. Some of these clients include RY, Uprise festival, ING, and etc...).

PROS & CONS

What are the best aspects of this product?

Its own native integration with G-mail. Just about everything I'm working on G-mail is synced with Salesflare almost immediately. There's no need to worry about updating my address my address book. All of my contact data is there. And I don't even have to lift a finger!

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

It'd be a treat to directly make calls from the platform itself. Their main features are superb. You can easily see their product map to be clear. But then again, they're still taking things in the early stages.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

We just kicked off our startup and we wanted to keep sales going really quickly. Salesflare has been tremendous in doing things. Our sales process is astoundingly simple. We credit Salesflare for helping us out big time.
