“We purchased BuddyCRM with an idea to help the sales team become more efficient and understand more about our sales pipeline. Introducing BuddyCRM into our sales function has saved us almost countless hours in the daily sales meetings, where we used to not have an accurate picture of our business’s potential sales and the introduction of numbering opportunities has allowed our reporting to again save us hours per week in manually creating sales reports. BuddyCRM has also worked with us to make our quoting system even more efficient taking us away from using excel sheets for a more centralised system that allows us to log and control our monthly targets. Easily I would suggest BuddyCRM has saved us four hours per person per day!”

We interviewed five different CRM companies – many of the biggest names in that industry – no option was cost-prohibitive… we were looking for the best option to help our team. We went with BuddyCRM simply because of the value that they would be bringing to our company, and because they made it clear they would be there at the beginning of the process, during the development process, AND once we started using the system. They’ve been there every step of the way.

 If you’re looking for an easy to use & intuitive CRM platform that is customisable; as well as great customer support BuddyCRM are the folks you need to do business with. The team at BuddyCRM have proven to us that they are invested in our company’s success.
