Sales teams and small and mid-sized businesses looking for a simple yet powerful sales tool to help them stay organized.
Ease to use, Easy to Set Up, Great Analysis System, Great Format for the campaigns and good help service.
I had some problems sending out targeted emails the first few times and had some trouble making all the initial settings.
Overall, I've had a great experience with SendInBlue for what I use it for - it just works seamlessly on the backend of all my websites, delivering the mail flawlessly.
It's quite a mess and very unpleasant experience. Also the transition between drag&drop and raw HTML is not so direct as I would expect.
I love that I can start with the free account while getting my business off the ground and then expand when ready and more stable.
The CRM functions are confusing and a bit limited. The email templates are very limited.
My list has just reached over a 1000 subscribers and so now I need to find a more affordable way to build and grow from here. Sendinblue is perfect for that.
Initially it was hard to configure the dedicated IP but it was due to our lack of knowledge in IT and misunderstanding with our web host provider.
It's extremely user friendly, has a very clean layout, and is extremely effective for tracking information. Both the online and the app versions are quality products that have met my needs and more.
Functionality was terrible, I don't know if we misunderstood and they aren't actually a CRM system but what the product offered cannot be called a CRM.
Pipedrive is very competitive to other more popular CRM tools, the price is also better. I almost have all the needed features in a CRM along with the process automation.
The inability to move among contacts in the same list without returning to the main list page is a waste of time. The online app is basically useless.
I liked the way it pulled in my email and calendar and it was easy to set up reminders to follow up with prospects. The software is good - I would recommend it.
Difficult to understand when using for the first time. Repetitive data entry can get boring.
It has been as well a great way to interact with our customers, and gain a better insight to all of the sales process.
The only thing that is kinda confusing especially to non-technical person is on integrating with third-party tools. Most of it needs to be connected with Zapier which is again another subscription.
Cristina C.: Hi, I'm Cristina. I'm an owner manager. I give Sendinblue a three out of five. For more reviews like this, click the link below. Before Sendinblue, I was using Klaviyo. However, Klaviyo seemed to me to be too large of a CRM, too robust, too complex. I needed to simplify, so I chose Sendinblue, which was an easier, smaller to manage CRM. The other reason was the costs involved with Klaviyo. As a solopreneur, I was looking for something that was more affordable. I chose Sendinblue because I needed something that was a little bit more simple and less complex to use for a solopreneur. I also wanted something that was more affordable as a solopreneur, so I chose Sendinblue. Getting started with Sendinblue was quite a large learning curve. Even though it seemed like the simplest CRM, the learning curve in getting it attached to my website was quite steep. The customer service also was a little bit lacking in getting it set up. If you're thinking about switching over to Sendinblue as your CRM, be prepared for a learning curve. I would advise to jump on the website, have a look through the Sendinblue Academy, and then get in touch with your host and just see what exactly you need to do to set it up and integrate it with your website and your [inaudible 00:01:34] commerce, or whichever commerce you are using.
Ricard: Hi, I'm Ricard. I work as a marketing manager in [inaudible 00:00:04], a marketing agency here in Spain, and I rate Pipedrive five out of five. We use in the company another CRM called ActiveCampaign. It works also really well, but we decided to use Pipedrive. The best things about Pipedrive are the easy of access to the information, the integrations, and the reminders. Having information accessible for our commercials make the access to the deal in seconds really easy and more efficient. Actually, it was really easy because of the integrations of the Pipedrive. The integration with Gmail and Outlook also make the process really, really smooth, and it helped us to avoid losing information. Make a process of understanding of the funnel of your business before using Pipedrive to start using it at 100%.
