Freshsales Reviews & Product Details

The only upside is that it is cheaper than HubSpot. I cannot think of anything good about the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is horrible, no clear guides on integrations or how to connect anything, reports are not at all that detailed as in HubSpot, plus most marketing service companies include their own CRM which is actually free and much better like Instantly.

They need to upgrade everything ASAP.

Our team actually does not use this anymore, although we have paid for a year. Excel is much better for us. The very basics of ROAS, CPL/CPD are missing. There is no enforcement of reminders like there is in HubSpot, no AI features like there is in Instantly.

I don't even think that the support can help here, because the platform doesn't even have the feature set that even basic SaaS Marketing/Sales teams need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Freshsales acts as a centralized repository, putting every email, call, and meeting in one place like a dashboard, which helps me know what each discussion was about. The lifecycle feature enables me to track the progress of a deal, see who needs a nudge, and automate manual tasks like sending emails or setting reminders. I appreciate that it helps me prioritize leads, focusing on those with a higher chance of success using Freddy AI. I enjoy the activity tracker which provides a timeline of each touchpoint, enabling my firm to reach out at the right time. I also find the automated sequence for outreach smart since it stops whenever the customer replies, and the ability to make calls directly via the CRM is really handy. The layout is great and makes navigation easier. Furthermore, setting it up was easy for my team and me, and it saves us time by reducing the need for accessing multiple apps.

1. The mobile app is slow and not all features are available compared to the desktop version. 2. Sometimes data extraction for leads is not accurate, so a double-check by the team is necessary. 3. It lacks integration with third-party platforms like Marketo, Pardot for marketing, and Netsuite and Sage for accounting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The clean and intuitive UI makes its easy to onboard team quickly without steep learning curve

Features like built in phone , email, activity tracking and automation are tightly integrated

Freddy AI and automation features also help with lead scoring, prioritization and improving follow ups without overcomplicating workflows Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited Automation features compare to competitors tools like HubSpot, Salesforce and others CRM's and some advanced features are very hard to setup at first

The reports are not very flexible and getting detailed insights can take extra time

Some of advance features are available only in higher plans Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Freshsales for deal management, sales funnel, and daily tasks. It helps me organize our sales funnel effectively. The deal management feature is very impactful, allowing me to understand where we currently are in the sales process. I can set the deal management according to my requirements, like first call, demo 1, demo 2, and get the status in a single click. I also find the call log feature valuable, and the initial setup was easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the activity section updates automatically, which shouldn't happen. I'd prefer if updates didn't occur without our permission. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most helpful tool in FS, for me, is the integration tool. It makes it really easy to get tasks done. I also like the user-friendly interface and the way they handle confidential data. On top of that, it’s affordable and comes with good customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If it’s your first time using these tools, you’ll probably have a hard time understanding how they work. They’re a bit complex, especially if you’re new to the industry, so it can take some time to get familiar with everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how cost-effective Freshsales is; for the cost, you're getting an entire suite with many features like sequences and email bulk facility. It was really easy to set up everything as it provides step-by-step guidance. We created accounts fields and company, and Freshsales provides templates for other things. We tested email health without connecting the inboxes, then tested it with DKIM, SPF & DMARC setup on Freshsales. You can use Sequences for sending emails using certain logic, like sending follow-ups to clients who opened emails. It allows you to send automated email campaigns, and with bulk email, we can send a single email as a campaign and personalize every aspect of each email. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Detailed reporting of the email metrics can be highly improved. Due to their inability of showing detailed report, I had to create a separate email metrics dashboard personally using python. Their email open and click rates are the most basic, even the free HubspotCRM allows such detailed email metrics. You are only allowed the basic information, making the email metric not so reliable.

I use Freshsales for management because it offers easy access to my working contacts management and sales management services. I like how easy it is to use; just a tap and almost all work is done. There are many more features in the application like managing our work, setting reminders, or even automating some tasks with it. The initial setup was very easy. Overall, compared to Zoho CRM, Freshsales is much easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think its user interface can be improved by adding more features in profile. Some functions are in two slides, I mean one in another, which can be improved by setting them on top or on the profile page. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Freshsales to manage leads and improve sales productivity. I like how easy Freshsales is to learn and use, even for beginners, while still offering powerful CRM features like lead scoring, automation, and pipeline tracking. It's easy to get started without much training, which helps me work efficiently from day one. I also appreciate its integration with email and calendar tools, which keeps all customer interactions and meetings organized in one place. Setting up Freshsales was straightforward and the user-friendly design made the onboarding process simple, making it accessible even for first-time CRM users.

Certain reports and customizations could be more flexible, and the system can feel slightly slow when handling large amounts of data. Report flexibility could be improved by allowing more customization options, such as adding calculated fields, easier filtering, and more control over report layouts. When working with large volumes of data, performance could be enhanced by faster loading times and smoother navigation, especially in reports and dashboards.

I like Freshsales' easy interface, automation features, and lead management system the most because it helps speed up the sales process. Its easy interface is very helpful for my team because even new users can quickly use it without training. Automation features like follow-up reminders and task assignment have reduced manual work and no lead is missed. The lead management system clearly shows the sales pipeline, making it easy to understand priorities and make quick decisions. Due to these features, the overall sales process has become more organized, efficient, and time-saving. The initial setup of Freshsales was smooth and simple, thanks to step-by-step guidance and a clear interface, allowing user setup, lead import, and basic automation to be quickly configured.

Freshsales overall is quite a good product, but sometimes the advanced automation and reporting features seem a bit complex, especially for new users. If there were simpler tutorials or guided setups for these features, onboarding could be even easier. The mobile app performance could also be improved a bit more.

Integrations are important. So I like that it integrates with other software to aid in our efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No defined nickname field. Sometimes it slows up. It's also not the greatest with handling more than 3 open browser windows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
