Grow sales teams with a scalable CRM

When teams expand fast, processes often fall apart. Leads slip, updates go missing and goals get harder to track.

However, growth shouldn’t mean more spreadsheets or new disconnected tools.

Pipedrive simplifies scaling with flexible pricing, shared permissions and powerful automation capabilities. Every new deal and teammate fits smoothly into your existing sales pipeline.

Customize reports, data fields and sales pipelines

Generic reporting hides the sales insights that drive better decisions.

To stay competitive, you need to track what truly matters to your strategy – whether it’s deal value, lead source or team sales performance.

Pipedrive lets you create custom dashboards, fields and pipelines to forecast accurately, measure progress and keep every stage of your customer journey visible.
