Front vs. Vtiger

I think Front is very useful for every company with multiple teams working together on different emails from clients. Not so useful if a lot of different teams need to work on a request at the same time, because when an email is sitting in multiple shared inboxes things can get messy. Also would not recommend for teams that work is individualized, as team work is the main point of Front.

Vtiger has evolved in the interfaces design. You can access all required data from one screen, similar to a control data. You have also sales and support dashboards predefined, but you can create your own. As less appropriate the templates design, it has not evolved from old versions of Vtiger.

• I call them "sticky notes" but Front calls them Comments. It's a way to collaboratively make comments on messages sent to joint inboxes for folks to coordinate a response before it goes back to the sender.
• When exchanging with someone using the Comments feature, someone can create a draft reply and then share it before it goes out. It also includes the typing indicator letting you know they are not just replying, but specifically working on a draft reply. These things are really great for individuals, or teams, that don't sit next to each other.
• Tagging. It's a fairly simple concept, but very useful for classifying notes and being able to manage, what could be, a messy inbox. Additionally, the ability to have your own personal tags really allows the user to manage their own messages in a way that works best for them.

• I love reporting. I can build a custom report using all or any of the dimensions of my choice. This is great when other programs often limit this ability.
• I like that is a source of truth across the organization. We can all go in and see the same thing.
• This also works for communication with our teams in other countries. We are a global organization.

• Zoom Meeting Integration as there are some clients who want to have a call immediately.
• Tagging can be improved - looks scattered.
• Calendly Integration, they have their own calendar appointment but it would be good if I don't need to leave the front to set up [calendar] appointments.

• Although Vtiger integrates well with email, like most CRM systems it assumes that you have one email system and therefore it is less suitable for use cases where multiple email systems need to be supported.
• Although Vtiger supports Twitter it does not support other social media systems in the same way. You can tailor the system to hold the URLs of your contacts' social media profiles but if SM is a big thing for your organization then there are better systems available.

We are very happy with Front and don't anticipate changing

It's very easy to understand and use by new customer support agents as well. Be it a technology, product, or marketing person, we have trained most of the company folks to read and respond to customer conversations in their free time with the help of the Front app. It is also easy to set up for an admin and manage his/her team with communication rules.

In the Last versions they have done a strong effort in creating a powerful data screen. Inside the screen you have access to signing, communications with multiple tools integration and connections with all modules related. With a single view you have all control over your data relations. It is similar to a control managing.

The support is good, and it's definitely prompt, but still lags when it comes to technical requirements, as I guess they are slow in developing newer features fast. So no complaints in terms of responsiveness, but yeah, at times it's not very helpful when you need certain features or are blocked on things which can't be unblocked.

there is not much problem in using CRM. There were times it was lagging or bugging, but later on it will be fixed and I can use it again.

This is something I am not familiar but it seems like it is [available] in Gmail. Thus I cannot give any feedback about it. What I am sure about is Front works for our team and I see Zoom using the service in the Customer Success Organization in a long run.

The selection of vTiger was done by my management team to be able to see invoicing status in Quickbooks. Unfortunately, this feature has never worked but I think this might be a problem on our end, not a vTiger issue. We looked at Salesforce, HubSpot CRM, and ACT before making the switch to vTiger

• Quality- with all the benefits given, in just matter of time, all your organization will find it familiar and less effort is needed when composing emails.
• Effectiveness- no one wants to miss an email, or never respond to a possible customer. Front will help you that. If you do not want to send that email now, you can set a timer and Front will send it for you later on.
• Simplicity- Front is not the most difficult app to handle, indeed, it is too easy to learn. From the first moment you will have a guided tour and will learn all the good things that it has for you.
