InsideSales Playbooks vs. Sugar Connect

Playbooks is great for sales organizations that need help with efficiency and cadence. It is well suited for heavy calling and high emails on accounts. Playbooks also does a great job at taking the guesswork out of accounts for my reps. The only time I would think that Playbooks would be less appropriate would be if a company already has a similar system in place.

Great for tracking communications with anyone in your CRM. Because of Collabspot, we have a culture of documenting emails in Sugar. I suppose Collabspot wouldn't be necessary if your CRM had an extension for your email client.

• There does seem to be a lot of steps involved for each play when it would be nice to have fewer steps to send out an invite to an upcoming webinar.
• It would also be great to have more VOD's that we could watch on our own time to learn more about the tool.
• It would also be great to have the ability to see exactly when they open an email and forward it on.

• The payment plan that Collabspot provides does not have many advantages over the free plan.
• The scores do not reflect the true assessment towards clients and candidates.
• Mail templates have an outdated design.

It only took a day to get comfortable with Playbooks. The ease of use and overall usability is fantastic in the sense that it's pretty straightforward once you get enough repetitions in the tool. I also like all of the videos and resources available if support is needed
