According to Forbes, CRM is the basis for a scalable sales and marketing system. CRM can help Sales and Marketing professionals keep track of deals and flag opportunities that might require additional nurturing. But to reps, they can seem like nothing more than tedious time consuming entering the data. Data goes in, and no clear benefit comes out. They also spend a lot of time on unproductive tasks (which may be important) like sending welcome emails, birthday emails to clients, etc.

Customizable For Any Industries

May it be Automotive, Real Estate, Manufacturing or any industry type CompanyHub can be easily tailored to your needs with simple drag and drop. Where any other CRM just allows you to customize the fields CompanyHub gives you more advanced features where you can also create new forms/tables like payments, courses, properties, etc. Not only can this but you easily associate record of a table to the other which gives your synchronization between tables. You can also create reports based on custom fields and reports.

Powerful Reporting

Along with 20 predefined reports which give you complete visibility in your sales process, you can easily create custom reports in seconds based on any criteria and take a decision based on facts and not guesses. You can easily personalize reports by adding specific fields and filters and also with custom fields and tables. They have awesome visualizations too where you can create any type of chart/table and change the chart in one click.

Strong Email Automation

Salespeople spend a lot of time on emails. According to CSO Insights, salespeople waste 65% of their day doing administrative tasks like manually saving emails from Gmail. CompanyHub gives you everything you need to be more productive. Email Sync automatically updates the conversation with leads. A team can see all conversations at 1 place. Bulk mail helps to reach more leads in clicks. Email tracking shows who opened which mail and which links they clicked. Emails can also be scheduled. Sending an important mail? You can also request a reminder, in case you don’t get a reply. There is also a Gmail plugin to track any mail sent from Gmail.

Lead Management – Minimizes Your Efforts!

Salespeople hate updating CRMs. And it’s not their mistake. CRMs are time to consume. CompanyHub lets you do everything from one place – like excel. From a single page, you can create records, add notes, conversations & tasks, edit fields, and send follow up emails. Email sync & bulk mail also save a lot of time. Creating leads with the Quick Add feature is great as it saves your time. CompanyHub also gives you what they call as Smart Follow-up suggestions – so it reminds you of contacts that you need to follow up where you just set the hotness indicating how often you would like to stay in touch. Also when there is lack of communication, you automatically get a follow-up reminder. Now that is what you call ‘never miss a lead again!’

Deal Pipeline Management

Managing deals at every stage of the business is very important, and CompanyHub makes it possible to manage all current and pending deals at a glance. Users can view the stages of current deals, and even create notes to remind them of important tasks that may help in deal conversion. You can view closed deals through a tabular view, and enter important field information such as a deal name, stage, amount and company for a comprehensive understanding of the business arrangement.

Control Who Can See What Data

Lead information is a very important asset of a company. Even within the team, it is preferable to regulate who can see what data. CompanyHub gives complete control on who can see which records, and even which fields. It supports hierarchy based as well as rule-based access control. Even if two salespersons are seeing same page/report, they will see different data based on what is visible to them.

CompanyHub Integration
