Aurea CRM vs. LeadSquared

I have prepared deeply detailed customised queries to prepare detailed customer reports including markets, segments, classifications and potentials to present to our company management which have been highly appreciated. So, it was well suited in that case. Since I'm traveling a lot for customer visit activities, I frequently need to use it as mobile but it's slightly nightmarish to use its unfriendly search function as well as very slow loading speeds. So, it's less appropriate in that case.

Leadsquared is well suited for small to medium-sized enterprises where the team is small and you have a lot of areas to explore. Every team can have their suites/ accounts customised accordingly. I am not sure if I can compare it for bigger enterprises but I feel this best of best to get your work done more efficiently.

• customised and detailed query preparation
• offer creation
• creation of detailed activity reports

• Call history is recorded like dialed calls, connected calls, total talktime in a daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and on a custom basis.
• The activity history of both customers, and employees are shown clearly, which help us a lot in understanding the interest of the customer, and their communication history with the organization.
• Daily attendance history and man-days management can be done.
• Sales performance and their values are mapped clearly.

• slightly complex user interface and menu items
• very slow loading speeds particularly for mobile smartphone use
• missing information for current or next steps of the menu while typing or entering something

• LeadSquared is a little bit expensive compared to other slimmer products, so they need to think about it.
• Sometimes LeadSquared gets stuck when I use it to run a large campaign, I would like them to improve this.
• LeadSquared creates a problem in slow internet connections, so I guess this is also an improvement area for them.

It is an excellent value for money solution and is fulfilling all our needs quite efficiently. They keep working on the product and each month sees an update allowing for a bug free experience and faster incorporation of newer tools. I see no reason why I would not like to renew the subscription for this fabulous product.

Since it's providing useful features, I like to use Aurea CRM on my company PC at the office for my daily activities. However, we are in highly digital age via mobile devices particularly smart phones and we need to use softwares even in mobility which is highly weak feature of Aurea CRM and needs to be improved as soon as possible.

1. The learning curve is not too steep; it is fairly simple. The UI albeit old looking, is fairly simple. 2. It has a lot of integrated apps using which you can directly access other systems under a single umbrella. 3. Processes and permission templates allow for role based access, thereby further simplifying the system by removing unnecessary element with respect to a specific group

I'm not getting in touch directly with Aurea CRM support team member because they have trained our company's IT team members that are in direct contact with Aurea CRM support channel. As far as I know, the overall support for Aurea CRM is quite good and highly prompt in a professional way.

Great to work with and also Easy to work with Do not just listen to the problem but provide upfront solutions Always available and are ready to support on holidays Considerate of user's knowledge and always ready to explain the smallest / dumbest doubt a user can ask Always available to help with the internal tasks as well like creating automations, drip creations etc

I didn't select Aurea CRM myself. Since our company is global, our headquarter has selected Aurea CRM after certain years of old Oracle based Crm use. As far as I know the old one was having some weaknesses about reporting, analysing via queries, lack of marketing activies etc. That's why our top management has selected Aurea CRM for a better solution which I highly agree with it except terrible mobile use.

LeadSquared is a dedicated Sales CRM. Earlier we were using Freshdesk for sales following a ticket based model which was highly inconvenient as all customer activity used to get created as a separate ticket and overall effort tracking was a mess. With the Lead and Activity model, tracking became much easier and yes, Freshdesk is a support tool and Freshsales does exist but LeadSquared fulfilled our usecase at a much lesser price.

• positive impact for efficiency of indoor sales activies
• positive impact for better report preparation
• negative impact for mobile use
