Vtiger vs. Zendesk Sell

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 think that for a company that creates any sales and needs to house their client information, the Base is perfect. The price of the program makes it completely worth the investment. And to be able to use customizations makes it possible for any business that does sales use Base for their orders. I would say for companies that use legal contracts or binding contracts for their business, Base may be too simple for their needs. We work in tandem with a company that always has contracts going back and forth, and the build out of the customizations here weren't really going to work 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.

• Integrates well with FullContact, Slack via Zapier, and Gmail and google calendar.
• Excellent mobile app for iPhone lets salespeople have data at their fingertips and enter notes at conferences, in elevators, wherever.
• Does all the basic things a salesperson needs to be productive, contacts capture, deal capture, documents, smart linking of contacts to deals, and nice reminder features.

• 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.

• There was no ability to add prospects from a company domain or email to auto-fill any data.
• You had to type in all of the data you gathered about that prospect.
• The default only gave you two phone numbers for the company, too few.

The integration with the other Zendesk products is key. Allows other people in the company, such as support, to be involved in the sales process.

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.

I received about two hours worth of training on Zendesk Sell (formerly Base CRM). I will say it's a clean look and the ability to change views is extremely helpful. I do wish there were other features that allowed the views to be more simplistic. Some views can be overwhelming to look at. Nevertheless with the minimum training, I am still able to navigate through Zendesk Sell (formerly Base CRM) successfully due to the ease of usability.

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.

Due to the ease of the product, I have not had the chance to reach out to support yet. I’ve had no reason. The resources provided to clients are extremely helpful and detailed. So far my questions have been pretty basic and I generally just ask my colleague or teammate. They're able to assist with the answer.

This product has a great backing of users, but needs more options direct from Base CRM on all operations of the software. YouTube videos do a great job of helping implement, and the back end support is a great help as well. The CRM is a great free option, and should be treated as such.

Simple, and straight forward.

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

Zendesk Sell is not as robust as other leading CRM tools I have used in the past like Salesforce. Salesforce is the market leader and is always leading the way in innovation. Salesforce objects management is better simpler and allows the user to customize different screens and have different dashboards for reporting reasons. This is definitely a good alternative to Salesforce especially if you are currently using any other Zendesk products like Zendesk support.
