Pipedrive looking like a better Close CRM alternative?
5 reasons why Pipedrive is the best Close CRM alternative
24/7 support
Salespeople need to be empowered to focus on selling. Nobody wants to have their deals and sales targets put in danger due to unhelpful support. Close CRM provides around the clock support… for an extra $750 per month. Pipedrive has award-winning 24-hour support on all plans, at no extra cost.
Value for money
Close CRM comes at a significantly higher price despite limited features, data restrictions and no mobile application. For six users on the 3rd plan, Close CRM is almost double the cost. Pipedrive offers an affordable CRM with more integrations and 24-hour support as standard.
Data features
Nothing stifles sales momentum like barriers and hidden costs. Despite being more expensive than Pipedrive, Close CRM still has limits on contacts, custom fields and users on its first plan. You will have to upgrade to their "Basic" plan for these limits to be removed, and this plan starts at $69 per month. Pipedrive offers custom fields, sales pipelines and unlimited users and contacts regardless of the plan you’re on.
Sales pipelines
Having the ability to understand your sales opportunities at first glance is crucial. Pipedrive offers unlimited, visual sales pipelines across all plans, so you can easily manage deals across different teams, departments and product lines. Close CRM doesn’t provide visual accounts of your pipeline stages, plus they add limits to the amount of sales pipelines across all plans.
Mobile app
Salespeople need access to their CRM on the move. Pipedrive’s mobile app allows you to view tasks for the day ahead, track calls and caller IDs, create audio notes, access sales data offline, tackle unread emails and overdue activities and see which leads are nearby for timely follow-ups. Pipedrive’s mobile app is also synced with the web app, so any edits to data will appear in real-time on both. Close CRM does not have a mobile app, which is OK for inside sales, but detrimental to the mobile sales professional.
