Inside Sales Box (discontinued) vs. Mailshake

Inside Sales Box is great for call centers and places that require the call records to be related to the accounts. It would be less needed in situations in which calls are not an essential part. Inbound call records would be much better if they attached to the Salesforce records like outbound calls.

Mailshake is great for cold prospecting and drip email campaigns. I do not think Mailshake is well-suited for hyper-personalized one-to-one emailing.

• Great detailed stats in the dashboard.
• Integration with CRM for automatic import of leads.

• Inbound calls need to be found to get on proper record.
• Inbound calls can erase notes on the last call if not saved.

• Mailshake works only with Gmail/G Suite accounts.
• The only option for customizing emails is in the CSV file. It would be great if there were a feature in the tool for this.
• Missing starts about the total number of opens of an email (it is only tracked once).

I found it pretty good - we were able to put email templates and campaigns together almost immediately. The reason I gave it an 8 is because if you want to edit those templates, the saving and making sure they were part of the campaigns was a little tricky and not intuitive.

Our staff always has fast responses to any issues.

Quick support. They offer very extensive and detailed tutorials on how to use the tool, as well as how to succeed in sending emails the right way. It probably reduces the number of support tickets and general support needs. The videos make it very easy to use their solutions. Great way to educate new clients.

I selected this because already it has market place where professional people are there who make it easy for workers of different companies to interact with each other regarding their sales. It is quite good for professionals to talk with others in the same field and make easy your work.

You can use Mailchimp or SendGrid for similar use, with Mailchimp the email automation is limited, and SendGrid holds up quite well. However, Mailshake is strictly designed and well equipped for email outreach and unusually cold emails, and its usability is second to none.

• It’s helped eliminate mistakes and false records.
• It keeps calls and records attached properly.

• I'd say it was a net negative for us because the initiative did not lead to sales for us. It was probably HOW we were using it, and not the fault of the product itself. If you have luck with cold emails, and just need a new platform, Mailshake could be a great, and inexpensive option. Our loss was mostly employee time, and learning what doesn't work for us is a positive in the end.
