### "I use Nutshell all the time and recommend it for marketing teams"

November 14, 2024

4.0

I use it on an ongoing basis to send out customer marketing communications, and rely on it to deliver good-locking emails that drive traffic and engagement.

Pros

Very easy to use to send out bulk emails in a creative way, with an eye toward data-driven results and tracking.

Cons

It can do quite a bit (a good thing!) so there is a learning curve when it comes to using it the first few times.

Cost was too high and this was affordable.

My overall experience with Nutshell is positive due to its blend of simplicity and capability. It offers an intuitive interface that’s quick to navigate.

Pros

What stood out to me about Nutshell CRM is its balance between user-friendliness and functionality.

### "Easy, Convenient but Some Paint Points"

June 6, 2024

4.0

Pros

I like that Nutshell is straightforward to build. As an admin, it's easy to set up the pipelines, add users, and the interface is easy to follow. Some of its capabilities are very helpful, such as tasks/automatic tasks, automatic emails, email integration, RingCentral integration, etc. The fact they track audience engagements is also helpful to get a feel for the audiences. There are some limitations, of course, but it's possible to use it well based on the lower price point than other competitors.

Cons

The features are sometimes limiting. They intend to be helpful but actually cause more work. For example, I dislike how you can't choose a certain date for an automatic task but rather have to delay it by X amount of business days—it becomes such a pain. I also dislike the same feature for the automatic emails, it becomes a pain point. The pipelines are good to use but have a limit on how many steps can be created as well, which is also limiting. I also dislike how you can't use the same trigger in different stages of a pipeline—this can be so unhelpful at times. Lastly, there's something very off with the AI used to identify duplicates. Sometimes the suggestions are close to each other but sometimes they're VERY unrelated and it keeps getting flagged as a duplicate.

Reason for choosing Nutshell

I'm not sure—this was done before I joined the company. I'm assuming price/benefit balance.

### "Daily user appreciates ease and organization"

June 6, 2024

4.0

I have previously used several management systems. We have had this for a long time and when we first got it, there were many features that I missed from my other programs. But she does a good job of adding things that customers need help to keep people focused, and on track. Less to do fall through the cracks.

Pros

Help me to know exactly what I’m going to do on a daily Basis, but also gives me tools to share that information with others. I can look back and see where my sales are trending and how many calls I have made, etc..

Cons

Just the fact that I cannot control undo things in the email section for instance, if I accidentally bump something and erase a large section of the email body, I am typing, it’s gone there’s no way to control and get it back

June 10, 2024

5.0

I use nutshell all day every day and it's the main reason my sales production is so good. It keeps me in check and reminds me of what I need to do and when.

Pros

It's easy to use, keeps me in check and it means I don't have to worry about admin. It has tonnes of features and integrates with my emails meaning everything is recorded automatically including meetings.

Cons

Lots of pay walls plus there's no easy to use sales automation

### "Streamlined CRM for Small Teams"

May 13, 2024

5.0

Pros

Nutshell has been a game-changer for our small team. It promotes open communication and makes tracking wins a breeze. With its intuitive interface, we can easily collaborate, generate insightful reports, and stay organized. It's a must-have for any small team looking to boost productivity and efficiency. Highly recommended!

Cons

While Nutshell CRM has its strengths, I've found the process of adding team members and fully utilizing its features to be confusing. Despite its promising features, navigating the system for tasks like adding team members feels overly complex. Simplifying these processes would greatly enhance the user experience and make Nutshell even more valuable for small teams like ours.

Alternatives considered

[Salesforce Sales Cloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/61368/Salesforce/)

Reason for choosing Nutshell

Pricing was a big factor and also integrations.

### "Nutshell has transformed our lead management"

May 15, 2024

5.0

Pros

Our primary goal was to have a high-functioning CRM that supported lead nurturing and helped us close sales. Nutshell does that exceptionally well, but that is just the starting point. Automating tasks and communication through multiple sales pipelines is easy and intuitive. We are already seeing results from the automation. Tracking our current clients for upsells and renewals is also intuitive and easy. Our next step is to use the marketing potential of the platform to increase our lead generation as well. The implementation went very smoothly, support from Nutshell staff was great, and I was up and running with Nutshell in days, and now I can track leads, make calls, and send emails and never have to leave the platform. It has greatly increase my efficiency.

Cons

Not sure how to answer the cons. There are a few areas where I would like to customize fields, or change their location, but it is a small complaint

May 9, 2024

5.0

A big, complex and complicated tool that can be used to solve many problems, but needs a big team effort and significant training and practice to master

Pros

The variety of tools and integrations offered were useful and allowed our team to solve many challenges in different ways while helping us to ensure our data was all in one place

Cons

Very challenging to use, and seemed non-intuitive to me. It took me a long time to figure certain things out, and support did the best they could. Other team members either found it easier or harder than I did.

We evaluated seven different CRM's with Nutshell being the last. It was immediate in knowing that Nutshell stood heads and tails above the rest and was a perfect fit for our needs. I would, without reservation highly recommend this application for anyone looking for one. I even gave a shout out post to Nutshell on my LinkedIn profile @joeharbottle.

Pros

Ease of use. User interface and the functionality. The feature set is perfect for our needs. The application is WELL thought out.

Cons

Nothing so far. We have been using it for about 5 months now and have not come into a situation that we wished it had a certain feature.

### "Cannot imagine a better or more cost effective product for our needs"

August 8, 2023

5.0

NS is critical to our a) Sales management, b) Project management, c) Marketing. We have not tried competitive software, but it's hard to imagine a package better suited to our needs.

Pros

1) Email marketing capabilities added in the past couple of year have been a game changer for us. 2) Ability to track leads as they turn into projects and are completed - NS is the one tool we use for this, daily. 3) Contact import, export, and bulk editing.

Cons

Copying emails into Nutshell and assuring they are attached to the correct Lead, and only to the correct Lead, is a pain in the neck. Having to insert "Lead-xxxx" into the subject line is the issue. We do not want our clients to see the word "Lead".

Reason for choosing Nutshell

At the time, other packages offering similar features were MUCH more expensive. And Nutshell got excellent reviews.

### "Nutshell in a Nutshell"

October 10, 2023

5.0

At first, I thought it was "clunky" but over time, and some super cool changes have actually helped me be MORE detailed. I would like to be able to run reports on customers, Not on sales necessarily...But on simple account activity.

Pros

I can dump tons of data into the CRM, which I do for each customer. If I work on something that ends up going to anther salesperson, I can already have TDS and SDS information. Visit notes, I can make changes to contacts within a customer in seconds. The world changes quickly, and Nutshell lets me change with it.

Cons

Leads is convoluted. Each sales person does things differently. For example. I sell Industrial. Many times my sales cycle can be two years long. I have trials and approvals to get from Engineers, Maintenance staff, and sometimes plant managers. Where a Fuel sales guy just quotes total gallons at a certain price, my job is highly detailed, constantly changes, So my leads don't fit into Nutshell very well at all. I struggle with the leads funnel. (It makes me look inefficient) I do not like the sales portion of Nutshell at all.
