User reviews
Pros
Great for triggering any action you want really and so useful if you are sending out large volumes of emails every month. Integration options are great too.
Its almost intelligent interaction with prospects allows our team great confidence in engaging and in capturing quality leads.
Marketo customer support team is very responsive and always available to help, this is something I like the most. Marketo's simple and easy user interface is amazing and very easy to use.

Pros
It is pretty easy to use. The ability to set up sales sequencing was nice and pretty easy to do.
Easy set up, intuitive interface, good gmail integration, decent price. I once called them for help on a saturday and someone answered and was very helpful.

With freshsales the user will know more tools to evaluate potential customers. Freshsales has an excellent communication, which we highly recommend to handle sales opportunities.

Cons
Here are a few cons which shouldn’t be ignored. Reporting of Analytics of Marketo is very bad and in addiction smart list designs are not flexible and it is very difficult to design them.
With customization that is available, it is possible to get a bit lost in the hugeness that is Marketo. Lastly, there are no customizable reporting options which can make things hard.
Dylan C.
Not much return on investment here; very basic functionality, and problems with our website getting clocked as spam form our target cusotmers.
Cons
Error logs were nearly impossible to find and though the log is supposed to be included on the email showing the errors it wasn't. Support couldn't figure it out either.
Shaun D S.
Horrible at talking to people and trying to fix problems.
Th reporting system is really bad. You cannot rely on if it is giving you the right report.

Freshsales
Good CRM - tracks user engagement on websites/apps, but expensive to use a webform & locked in phone number
Reviewed 6 years ago
Freshsales is a solid CRM - not too flashy or the most feature rich, but designed well and provides tools to track how excited your potential customers are with your brand (by seeing how much they engage with your website or in your app - potentially great features). I would continue using it beyond the trial, but the two drawbacks for me are the lack of number portability (in to the app or out - meaning you'd have to give up your phone numbers if you ever left) - and secondly - the cost involved with getting a webform-to-lead setup means you need the max plan - $49 per month.
Pros
- Clean appearance - Flexibility with sales process - Responsive/active dev team - Email Read receipts - Ability to track user engagement with websites
Cons
- If you want to use a web-to-lead form (which can be considered a common feature for a CRM), then you are required to sign up to the most comprehensive plan - i.e. $49 USD per month which seems crazy - I'd only recommend someone signing up to this if they need to the other "web engagement" features - otherwise your just wasting money on this app. - Non-ability to port Twilio numbers (or any external numbers). A big drawback but I have an email from their team indicating that they are likely to change this. - No dash board giving an overview of sales and leads (you only see leads when you log in) - Ability to see financials about clients from Xero integration would be great.
