Pros Very easy to use and manage, the ability to easily change fields to suit our market place and produce relevant reports that assist the sales team do their job. Cons Sometimes takes a while to work out how to change a column on a standard search result, but OpenCRM are always on hand to assist. Review Source Response from OpenCRM June 23, 2021 Thank you so much for leaving us this awesome review!

Director Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Powerful CRM at a faction of the cost" November 6, 2019 5.0 I'm very happy with the product, once you get over the initial configuration and setup of the product (which can be very granular) so that it works for your business its a very powerful tool, from small business up to the enterprise. Pros This CRM product has everything that you need and when you need it, without the addional overhead of having to purchase every addon as you need it. This allows you to know that you have a very comprehensive feature set from day one. It has numerous integrations built in, for example JotForm, Xero, Mailchimp and Sage to name a few, which all help with the sale process and can help with the customer relationship. Cons The interface can be outdated at times and features/options can be hard to find unless you know where they are. But the team at OpenCRM are working on updating the interface and the latest releases are looking much nicer and easier to use. Switched from [HotSpot Software](https://www.capterra.com/p/113609/HotSpot-Software/) Addon sevrice cost and not as customisable.

Marketing Manager Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great CRM for a small business" August 26, 2021 5.0 Pros As a fairly small organisation, we find Open CRM easy to use with a handful of users. The support team are excellent when we run into any difficulties and is quick to help. I have used a range of CRMs in the past at previous organisations, some 4x the price of Open CRM but I haven't found them to be as effective or user friendly as Open CRM. Cons The reporting is a bit confusing and could do with being made simipliar. Review Source Response from OpenCRM September 1, 2021 Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we really appreciate it! So glad you've found our support team helpful and that you're enjoying using OpenCRM. In terms of reporting, I will make sure to feed your comments back to our interface team. Would you mind replying to the email with some more information of what areas you are finding confusing? It might be that a session with our customer success team can help bridge the gap. Kate B. Administrator Renewables & Environment Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "I Love working with this program" February 21, 2023 5.0 Absolutely loving working with it. Saves so much time and eases tasks you didn't know needed easing Pros It is easy to navigate, has a great flow throughout the program too Cons the choice of colours on dashboard, could use a little more choice there, especially with multiple users. Reason for choosing OpenCRM I came to the company after it was purchased, but in the infant stages of using it.But I think it's brilliant! Review Source Response from OpenCRM February 22, 2023 Thank you so much for your review Kate, that's some seriously high praise :-) One of our company aims is to ease the daily lives of our users, and sometimes that means making jobs easier that you didn't even know could be made easier, so again, huge thank you for bringing that to the attention of the wider world.

VR Verified Reviewer Techncial Sales Manager Environmental Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Not the best" May 7, 2019 3.0 Not great. Our company has been using for a few years and as we have grown its failings have become more frustrating and apparent. We are changing CRM. Pros it has all the features you would expect of an online CRM Cons Its badly laid out and very buggy. We kept coming across things that didnt work. when we reported these bugs OpenCRM admitted they didn't work but if we wanted that functinoality we would have to pay for it. The email program is very bad and barely functions. The reporting system is also overly complex Review Source Response from OpenCRM April 19, 2021 Thank you for taking the time to give your feedback. I am genuinely sorry that your experience was not like the many hundreds of other comments we have received about our product and services. My name is Graham, and I am the Managing Director over at OpenCRM. OpenCRM does not have an email client, so we were left a little puzzled by your comment stating that our email program is 'very bad and barely functions'. It's always disappointing when we have been unable to quantify the areas that you were struggling with, and for that, I can only apologise. Our goal is a bug-free experience for our thousands of users. To clarify, we have never charged for bug fixing, and our approach to feedback around areas of the system that have genuine issues has always been to embrace the feedback to make our product better for our whole community. If you're open to discussing this further, please give me a call. I would be pleased to catch up and discuss any options that we might have in the future. CA Carl A. Director Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Easy to use cloud based CRM" August 17, 2021 4.0 Easy to use and access from anywhere. For our use it is affordable and very customizable. Pros Reporting tools are particularly useful, and great search functions Cons Some of the terminology could be improved and an easier to customize dashboard would be great.

Assistant Office Manager Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "OpenCRM User Review " February 22, 2023 4.0 Very user friendly and is leaps and bounds ahead of our previous CRM solution (ACT) It has streamlined our maintenance renewals process and allows us to accurately track man hours vs the cost of our maintenance contracts. From this we can work out profit/loss. Pros Easy to navigate and very user friendly. The best feature for me is that all emails to/from clients are automatically attached to the relevant account. Cons When using Chrome, on occasion, if you press "back" on the webpage, you get a "confirm resubmission" error message Switched from [Act!](https://www.capterra.com/p/175860/Act/) No longer fir for purpose Review Source Response from OpenCRM February 23, 2023 Thank you so much for such a glowing review Joanne, We really appreciate that you took the time to write us such a brilliant review.

It's very much appreciated LA Linda A. Infrastructure engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Open CRM Review" August 18, 2021 4.0 Overall I like using OpenCRM and the Support staff are really friendly and knowledgable. Pros It's easy to use and navigate. And it's also easy to add products and pricing etc., Cons With ticketing I don't like the fact that if you add an email in the cc when raising a ticket directly from CRM, the cc recipients don't receive the ticket update. Review Source Response from OpenCRM August 23, 2021 Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review, it's hugely appreciated.

Thank you again for your review :-) PR Peter R. Information Support Officer Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Comprehensive CRM system with impressive customisability and great support" February 23, 2023 4.0 Pros Easy to use and ultimately customisable - the OpenCRM platform allows us to quickly adapt our sales processes and inventory, be that adding new product lines, amending the sales order processes, starting up new offices (with associated new terms & conditions), or any development that would typically throw a spanner into the works; we know that OpenCRM can be quickly adapted to allow our business to keep running without delay. The customer services and chat support functions are one of the best on the market and i'd rate them highest amongst any of the 3rd party systems we use. Their staff are knowledgeable, helpful and quick to respond. Cons The user permissions can be a little tricky to get the hang of, with permission levels being either too high or too low to allow the user to access what's required for their job role. Review Source Response from OpenCRM February 24, 2023 Thank you so much for your glowing review, Peter! We really enjoyed reading his one here at OpenCRM. If we can ever help with your user permissions, please let us know. We're always happy to help (as you have pointed out in your review, thank you :-) Thank you again for your brilliant review, we wish you a lovely day. CC Connor C. Application Engineer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Review on OPEN CRM" May 25, 2023 3.0 Its the first CRM I have worked with, It seems it has lots of feature I don't use or don't know about, but knowing about them would be handy. The UI feels dated and had to use/see where to go. Pros I like the templating of products. So I can group products into a single product so when I add to a quote it adds the whole list. However, I wish these were easier to change. I also like how everything links e.g lead, contact, company, opportunity, and quote. Cons Not being able to auto update quote with either the current exchange rate or with the updated prices of the products. Plus if there was an update button it would help any time a minor change is made to a product. Review Source Response from OpenCRM June 2, 2023 Thank you very much for your review Connor. Thanks so much for bringing the interconnected nature of OpenCRM to the wider world with your review, we really appreciate it. It feels like you may benefit from some guidance with your system, both to help you with your current goals and also to look at areas of your system that you are yet to explore. This could be done in a couple of ways. Firstly you could take a look at our YouTube channel, we have heaps of help videos and full-length webinars to guide you through those less familiar areas. You can find that at www.youtube.com/opencrm Alternatively, we also have a Customer Success department here. One of the team could spend some time with you to explore your business goals and show you ways to use your system to better achieve those. If this would be your preferred route, please reach out to us. Thank you again for your review. Have a wonderful day. VM Vee M. Programme Director Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "OpenCRM for MedTech Portfolio Management" February 22, 2023 5.0 We have been using it for 5 years, and the support team have been brilliant Pros I like that all the data is linked and integrated, which means you do not miss little contacts or notes. Cons The interface does take a bit of getting used to, so could do with being a bit more user friendly Reason for choosing OpenCRM They were based locally, the pricing was simple and straightforward and there was some degree of customisation Review Source Response from OpenCRM February 23, 2023 Thank you so much for your review Vee, it's much appreciated. If you ever want to investigate any further customisation of your system please don't hesitate to reach out to us, we could point you in the right direction for you to do that yourself, or we could take on your customisation project for you :-) Thank you again, have a lovely day NM Nick M.

This can then be used by sales/support/marketing as required without the need for multiple databases. Pros Ease of use when tracking customer details/projects. Levels of customisation we are able to add in to tweak processes to match existing external processes. Cons The lack of automation. We do not use the software for quoting due to the uniqueness of our quotes (no two are the same), so this aspect could be improved.

Thank you for sharing your OpenCRM experience with the wider world, it's very much appreciated RC Ruth C. PA to Director Management Consulting Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Feedback from CQMS" February 23, 2023 3.0 Overall a good experience. Pros Easy to navigate, it would be nice if it looked and was branded more to match our corporate style. Cons The support team often talk to you in a technical way assuming you understand the system as well as they do. The email creator could be more pictorial like Canva/stripo without the need to import source coding. Review Source Response from OpenCRM February 24, 2023 Thank you so much for your review Ruth, it's very much appreciated. I am sorry that you feel our support team speaks too technically. It's often a tricky thing to contend with as we have users who are very technically proficient at one end of the scale and then users who are brand new to CRM at the other end, so we do apologise if you feel they have been running when you need them to walk, so to speak. We are constantly striving to improve OpenCRM and we take on board your comments about drag and drop functionality. We will be feeding those comments back to our development team.

Web Developer Internet Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A fantastic CRM" March 10, 2021 5.0 I decided to go with OpenCRM to keep track of my business admin. I have found it indispensable for managing my projects, contacts and invoices. I previously relied on spreadsheets and text files, but the move to OpenCRM has helped tie everything together. Pros Keeping track of projects and invoices, simplicity, ease of use, calendar functionality, integrations , customer service and help Cons When I was first setting up, things took a while as I am quite a basic user. There were a lot of settings to switch off that I didn't need. Switched from [Sublime Text](https://www.capterra.com/p/179535/Sublime-Text/)[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) It was becoming far too unwieldy.
