Why is Pipeline CRM a better investment?

If you want to get intensive support for your sales team, you’ll need to sign up for the Enterprise Plan ($165 per user/month), which still excludes some vital add-ons. Additionally, with so many components in the play, navigating Salesforce can be challenging. This can lead to a steep learning curve, short-term adoption, and errors.

Pipeline CRM gives you more bang for your buck. You can enjoy all the features at just $49 per user per month.

Furthermore, we ensure all fundamental sales features are included even in the Start Plan—not as add-ons. This way, your sales team is fully equipped to yield magnificent results right from the start with ease.

EXCELLENT CRM with SALESFORCE CAPABILITIES at a REASONABLE PRICE.

We like and need the capabilities that the Salesforce CRM provides; however, we ONLY need those capabilities for our Marketing and Sales departments. We do not require a full enterprise suite of services. After reviewing all of the Cloud-based CRM services available, it became clear to us that PLD provided everything we wanted and needed from Salesforce but at a fraction of the cost, and with a far more simple, user-friendly, intuitive ‘out of the box’ interface and experience.

— Robert Cash M. Vice President of Sales & Marketing
