Bad experience with Bigin
Comments: It was good & i was very happy till i found all my accounting data was not integrated and had to add contacts manually
Pros:
Integration with GSuite Tasks / Calendar
Cons:
The worst is it does not integrate with Zoho Books, there is not point. I spent time exporting contacts from books and importing to Bigin and then realised this is foolish to do. They promised to integrate with books but they also suggested to use zoho flow another paid application. This is not fair as why should i keep paying for applications, they should have offered zoho flow for free as it is their fault when CRM is not integrated with books/accounting
Alternatives Considered: HubSpot CRM
Reasons for Choosing Bigin by Zoho CRM: To ensure zoho books integration should work and felt natural extension

Bigin is the business - brilliant CRM for small businesses
Comments: Bigin by ZOHO CRM is absolutely fantastic! I love everything about it. I've tried lots of other tools and not been sold. This one is the best by miles - and the most affordable!!!
Pros:
Bigin is very easy to use, and others also pick it up quickly. The best part is customising fields for all modules - super quick and easy to do and can be done on the fly. The Gmail add-on is also excellent, and seamless, as is the use of IMAP emails. Brilliant tool.
Cons:
Not any con's I can think of, other than the email templates bit wasn't as intuitive as the rest. I worked it out, but that was the only thing that had me a tad puzzled for a while. Very minor detail.
Alternatives Considered: Airtable and HubSpot CRM
Reasons for Choosing Bigin by Zoho CRM: HubSpot is very complicated when it comes to customising fields and processes. I was really invested in making it work, watched tutorials etc, but I gave up this month and I just wish I had checked out Bigin years ago!!!
Switched From: HubSpot Sales Hub
Reasons for Switching to Bigin by Zoho CRM: Price, and trial - product sold itself.
