Featured Reviews

Kauhslendra  Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Has an easy-to-understand user interface
We started using LeadSquared's basic functions. Currently, we are using the solution's features, such as automation, reports, automated emails, and marketing sections, which have increased our efficiency. LeadSquared has helped streamline our marketing campaigns. We initially didn't have marketing strategies or a platform with landing pages, but this changed after we started using LeadSquared. LeadSquared is a SaaS based solution. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Diverse integrations assist in seamlessly aligning marketing efforts with sales tracking
Zoho CRM is flexible due to its integrations, like with Zoho Campaign, helping integrate marketing efforts with CRM processes. It offers a no-cost entry with the ability for three users to use it at no charge, which is beneficial for startups to explore the platform without financial strain. This enables me to start using the platform, handle opportunities, and get a feel before committing financially.
