LeadSquared vs. WORKetc

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.

If you are looking for a way to organize customer data and projects across regions, then WORK[etc] will get the job done. For our company, the country is divided into 3 regions and each region has a team of workers in charge of providing ongoing support services to that region. WORK[etc] has organized our company exponentially and given us a solid database to pull from to ensure we're meeting contractual requirements, providing timely deliverables and staying ahead of the game. Because I only work in a service industry, I don't know if WORK[etc] would be appropriate for product based companies, However, if you were offering anything [product or service] that required online support, the system will function well.

• 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.

• Technical support with issues that arise for us - we have had a few glitches with the software as to how we want to use it and the WORK etc team have been on the ball with helping us and getting back to us with a resolution to the issue.
• Setup and configuration - we needed a CRM that was built for us and WORK etc was able to deliver for us.
• Super easy to work with and get to grips with.
• Our staff have had no problems with getting up to speed

• 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.

• A little thing I'd like to see (haven't suggested it to WORK[etc] yet) is a bit more granularity in assigning new support tickets. It's very easy to assign one, or dozens. of new support tickets to a category and/or individual without having to open the tickets. I'd like to see that be a bit more granular, being able to assign a priority, deadline and/or client to each ticket without having to open the ticket. For all I know, that can be done now...as powerful as this program is, and as much as we customize it and use it daily, I believe we're only harnessing 2 or 3% of its capabilities.

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.

It is a major task to change your CRM system and the effort gets more significant the larger your business becomes. Changing is therefore not a decision I would take lightly. The system is working well for us and any problems are relatively minor in context so overall it works well for us. Oh... and the Worketc team will always listen to suggestions on how to improve!

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

My staff hates it, our clients require transparency and you manual have to enter notes, billing is horrific, as it does not subtotal by type - so as a T&M shop there is no way to easily see how much was spent to each matter or service type.

It never let me down. The support team never let me down.

It's just not as responsive as it was when we started out. I still love the product but I have to wait more than ever between screens and clicks. Not sure if its just that they need to upgrade their servers or what. I hope they do it soon though!! Hope this helps.

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

WORKetc offers maybe the best support in the business. Product documentation and training resources are outstanding. Support tickets or inquiries are answered quickly. If you do need to address an issue in person, it is easy to schedule a 15 or 30 minute live call with their fantastic support staff who are fast, friendly and skilled

They know their stuff. They listen to your use cases. They get back to you.

The implementation of the system was fairly easy. Because of our previous experience with a similar system, we were ready and working on the product as soon as we announced the switch. The system also allowed us to simplify our processes by integrating timesheets and project management directly into our CMS.

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.

Solve360 was our previous tool. It worked fine to capture the information but not for our type of activity where we needed to have one client that may have multiple support issues, training plans, projects, and long term plans all moving at the same time. We tested Salesforce but the costs and integration weren't acceptable for us plus we would have to manage many more parts of the tool to add functionality.

Everything is related. You can scale up your team rapidly.

• Lead leakage stopped, positively impacting the CPL.
• Customized Lead Stages helped the sales team to have a better follow up thus improving the conversion rates.
• Automations and Drip implementation helped in drawing direct/indirect conversions from dormant leads - Adding to LTV of a customer.

• It has given us a way to create leads easily and follow-up with each of them appropriately. With the fact that you can set-up todo's for each lead that can remind you to follow-up on a specific date and time, it's helped increase our rate of making a successful sell.
• Thanks to the information that can be captured under each of our clients, we have better customer services since we are continually updated with all communication and news that we enter in the system.
• It has also helped with the overall organization of our communities and engagements. This makes us more efficient and keeps us ahead of the game for our various front facing services.
