amoCRM vs. Method:CRM

amoCRM is a great tool for midsize companies to build business processes of managing leads and work with clients in one place. It's very easy to integrate with your products because it has a lot of ready integrations with popular services. Also, a lot of companies offer a custom developed solution based on amoCRM to fit your business needs. amoCRM might not be so great of a solution for a small company because of its price and when you have less than 15-20 new leads per day. Also, you should definitely check API documentation if you need a fully customizable solution, it might not fit your needs.

Method[:CRM] is well suited when you have a large company that needs to keep track of customers. It also connects with Quickbooks and that has really been nice for our organization. Our company is small so this really helps us stay on track and build our data base of customers.

• Easy to use interface. You can customize your lead's view to show the most important information for amoCRM users.
• Ready to use Integrations. You can integrate amoCRM with your virtual PBX service, end-to-end analytics service, mailing services.
• Rich API. You can easily export all leads from amoCRM to different services and work with this data.
• Customization. You can add your own fields to lead card to fit your needs.
• Access management. You can set up different rights for different users, so only several users can, for example, delete leads or export data.

• The customization team is brilliant!
• The various integrations, QBO & Gmail, help me keep track of all customer interactions.
• The more organized I am, the more time I have to take care of my clients!
• I have nothing but praise for the support team and the rest of the crew at Method.

• Room for improvement would be that you need to manually integrate some of the apps for use.
• Adding information to different fields is timely, and having an auto-fill would be very useful for a lot of the text fields. Perhaps using AI platforms could help identify what content should flow where on the platform.
• Allow for Twitter integration. Grabbing leads from twitter is very important, using it for FB Messenger is great, but what about other platforms?

• I believe there is room for improvement with scaling down on the customizing (sometimes having too much isn't always a good thing)
• The estimate creator in Method is not as fluid as making an estimate in QB. (moving lines around, adding lines, etc.)

The things Method does well - QuickBooks data integration and extreme customization - it does very, very well. If you are looking for a CRM product or any business process automation software that integrates with QuickBooks, you have to look at Method CRM

I'm fairly new to the company and have only been using Method for the last year and the ease of use has been a blessing for me. I've self trained on most of the aspects and have incorporated new operations in the company, based on what Method has to offer, that have enhanced the productivity for all associates.

The support is great. They are on the line within minutes and share screen to figure out the problem immediately. I would highly recommend this product for that reason. I do wish the customization was a bit easier to use; however, with fewer settings that are available to the end user and an easier way to read the customization.

Be available to learn! There is a huge learning curve to this program. You have to be willing to take it all in. Be available to the Method expert and be patient.

We have used Google Analytics, which is less of a direct competitor. Google Analytics does a lot more of tracking client data and engagement after it has happened. Google Analytics is not live like amoCRM can be and provide minute by minute data. This is where amoCRM has true benefit is in the up to the minute updates. Google Analytics gives me information after it has happened, which is great, but not enough to increase leads or sales.

We were using QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise for a very long time. However, the software is archaic and dated. Method allows us to step into the 21st century. We now have much more online / automated interactions with our customers. We like that Method also lets us customize a great deal of the software to our exact needs and wants

• Positive impact is on time, the mobile app makes it easy to implement on all devices. For students, it helps to improve their communication skills.
• Positive, the leads you can gather all in one place makes it much more of an efficient process to track communication, so it saves time, and as a result, saves money.
• Negative, it seems to take up a lot of data on our mobile devices. Overall it does not have a major impact on the business, but on a mobile device it does drain the battery more than other apps do.

• Method:CRM has probably saved me about 6-10 hours per week over the past few years.
• It has likely saved our company several hundred hours in the last 10 years.
• It has specifically saved us countless hours with better data management vs. having separate spreadsheets for keeping track of things.
