"Great tool very efficient"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Octopus CRM?

If you have a tool like Outreach or Salesloft this is similar but connected to Linkedin/Sales Navigator. This is an awesome tool. User friendly and a big help when you are trying to promote an event or reach a large amount of connections at a short time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Octopus CRM?

Nothing. This tool is pretty simply and does a few things to reach out to connected contacts. The tool doesnt have much purpose around that. If you use outreach/salesloft for emails in bulk, its the same. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Octopus CRM:

This would be the best tool for linkedin outreach. good investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Octopus CRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

Outreach, promo's via direct message on linkedin. You can connect it to sales NAV and that helps a lot to reach out to 2nd connections and some 3rd so it is worth the investment Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Don't sign up, find another tool"

0/5

What do you like best about Octopus CRM?

The entire tool is pretty clunky. Each action needs to be connected to another action item on a different tab and manually connected through settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Octopus CRM?

The tool is pretty ineffective unless you're at the premium version and even still it is very clunky. I was attempting to do test run with it and trying to make it work the best I could. I upgraded from the basic plan to the premium plan. I unintentionally signed up for the annual plan in doing so. I didn't realize until later and asked for a change in the plan (2 weeks after purchase) They declined. They flat out would not move my subscription to monthly.

I decided to check out the company on LinkedIn since it is a Linkedin Automation tool. The company has dozens of fake linkedin profiles of women and horrible customer support.

Fake company, nearly a fake product being so clunky and disjointed. There are many other better products out there than this one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Octopus CRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

More time spent managing auotmation. It wont allow you to look a the crm while the tool is in action. So you start some views and then you can't use the tool for an hour or more?? Not able to setup the next sequence or move people into place.

No benefits realized only wasted time trying to learn a product that was developed by a team that doesn't understand sequencing or sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome for Sales!"

5/5

What do you like best about Octopus CRM?

Able to reach hundreds of prospects per week, auto message in bulk specific connections based on LinkedIn's search criteria, and endorse your connections in bulk. The support team is also very quick with their response and extended my trial a few times before I was comfortable committing to the purchase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Octopus CRM?

I have been experiencing connection caps, but the support team explained a new feature would fix the issue in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Octopus CRM:

The best use out of Octopus would be for users who utilize any LinkedIn premium accounts. This allows you to use additional filters and broaden your outreach when looking for contacts to connect with. I also recommend that you take Octopus u on their free trial and watch the tutorials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Octopus CRM solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have a low success rate with my outreach through LinkedIn and duly caused by how manual the process of connecting, messaging, and following up with prospects is. Octopus allows me to streamline the process and to make my prospecting on LinkedIn easier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
