For someone who uses both Gmail and Salesforce as part of their main role, this software is an invaluable connector for them both. Some of the features are also not Salesforce specific - such as the Meeting Scheduler, which has proved invaluable to me, and I would recommend to any Gmail user who frequently set up meetings (either internally or externally).
In customer prospecting through cold contact, "cold mailing" is a very cost-effective practice and is widely used in the U.S. market, particularly for selling saas software and high-cost business services. (In my case it is used for selling insurance policies). We generally find several saas (i.e., monthly paid) email contact generation software on the market, generally found on linkedin and freely accessible. But this is not enough, you need software for sending emails (additional cost) and it must be specific to cold mailing otherwise you end up in spam. And you need a CRM, not all cold mailing software has that! Additional cost is for paid email verification and you have to waste time uploading and downloading the excel files to be verified and derived from the verification... then adapt them to the cold mailing software... A yes, not all cold mailing software has email warmers and many do not warm all types of emails (instead Sales.Rocks warmed because of my emails from an unknown hosting that no system warmed...). But if you had one software that does everything in one platform without driving you crazy switching between them, especially if you have large volumes of emailing and with the ability to track everything, create email sequences based on funnel-like behaviors, schedule phone calls or maybe an initial linkedin message from your Sales.Rocks linked account ... well, Sales.Rocks is all of that, and with support that lets you know how serious the company is. It's an expensive product for a freelancer like me, but it's unique, and for a structured company it's simply beneficial and has a huge return.
Log email to Salesforce. You click one button and it logs for you. This is easier than adding the BCC email address that Salesforce provides as a way to log email.
Track views and engagement on these emails. It's nice to know if the email was opened and if links were clicked.
Update quick fields in Salesforce directly from their inbox using Cirrus. This prevented reps from needing to click into Salesforce, wait for it to load, then update fields like the phone number or name.
If the rep did need to open Salesforce, Cirrus provides a quick button to navigate to the Lead/Contact/Opportunity page quickly.
It is the best google to salesforce integration on the market. support is incredibly responsive and very helpful. They are constantly adding new features, and the current feature set is well beyond anything else that is currently offered in the market
Very easy to use. Everything opens in a familiar interface right inside the google apps sidebar. It brings in salesforce records, so as long as you know google apps / gmail and salesforce you'll be all set. It's point and click.
The plugin is installed inside your internet browser as an extension/add-on. It can be found in most add on stores and is easy to install. Usually just a few clicks. It handles authorization for you once you sign in, and then takes care of all the rest. It couldn't be easier to get working right out of the box. You're up in running in less than 5 minutes.
Yesware regularly sent me alerts that my emails had been opened by someone who I hadn't sent them to, from locations they couldn't possibly have been. I also don't recall its Salesforce activity logging working as smoothly, though I last used Yesware more than 12 months ago so my memory isn't as fresh as it could be
Saleshandy, Hexospark, Getmails, Postaga. Mature product like Saleshandy, constantly updated for further improvements like Saleshandy and Hexospark. Sales.Rocks is the opposite of Getmails: the former has a myriad of features and a dashboard that gives you control like a NASA technician! But that is not why it is difficult to use. Getmails is super simple, wants to do everything automatically saving time for nerds like me who get curious and waste time trying every menu.
