We can compile data and execute sales campaigns with more precision with Salesfusion
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that Salesfusion is constantly evolving to stay relevant. A lead management tool is not only a financial investment but a significant time investment. It takes time to bring staff up to speed on how to use a platform and then be able to make the most out of it. The fact that Salesfusion stays up-to-date and goes the extra lengths to make sure the product continues to meet our needs now and into the future is incredibly important. I would also like to note with all of improvements to the platform there is always training and adequate support. We have never felt behind or completely lost with any of the new features that are deployed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I just wish Salesfusion had more integrations into other services. Their CRM integrations are great. Give us more connections into services like that. We can run into issues trying to get data from other aspects of our marketing stack into Salesfusion which can be challenging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's been great that Salesfusion is full featured and covers the main needs we have, all in one package without additional modules or options to buy. This has resulted in significant costs savings without loss of functionality compared to other systems we evaluated enabling us to invest in other places. Their integration to CRM systems is well done and gives us easy access to the data we need to make decisions. The Salesfusion support team has also been a bright spot and helped whenever needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start simple and small with Salesfusion. Don't try to do everything all at once. It isn't worth doing something half-right. Figure out how to do a few thing right and continue to improve and grow on that. This will also help with your confidence as well as realize the power of Salesfusion. If you start too large and feel like you are failing, you will quickly give up.
Easy to use. Helpful and friendly support.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the drag and drop features. Easy to navigate editor. The A/B testing email set up is really nice. Uploading marketing lists are pretty quick and easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes my emails will not look the same in the test email as they do in the editor. Data seems to come back inaccurate within the reports. The report will show over 100 clicks to the website while only a handful of them actually happened. We contacted support and were told thing is due to them inflating our data. Therefore, we have to manually sift through the data to find accurate information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We mainly use Salesfusion for brand awareness purposes and client retention with release notes and newsletters.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a B2B Company consider wether or not you want to use this software for lead generation or brand awareness. Given the data discrepancies, it has been hard to use this tool for lead generation purposes.
Fairly easy to use, but with limitations
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to use old campaigns as a starting point for new ones. Can be created quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
You can't resend a campaign to additional people. You have to recreate it and send. Sometimes the code is wonky. Takes some time to figure out why things don't work like you think they would!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Marketing campaign design and uniformity to newsletters. Great statistics and nice to have unsubscribed, and failed email addresses so we can update them in CRM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would be easy for someone who know code. New learners can create basic, but have limitations.
GOOD core marketing automation capabilities GREAT support
What do you like best about the product?
Platform is relatively easy to use and navigate. It provides the core functionality for marketing automation and allowed us to expand beyond basic email marketing with lead scoring, event management, landing pages, etc. Also liked their business model a lot. Other vendors we evaluated were looking to charge per user (marketing and sales users) which would have limited our adoption and use of the product. Salesfusion unlimited user price model allowed us to get the functionality we needed and have the freedom to scale it throughout the company as we grew. New folks who come from using other solutions are always surprised that we can 'just add a user' when needed.
During our initial evaluation, their native CRM integrations were a big plus as well. Other vendors were relying on 3rd party solutions or had limited access to the underlying CRM data. Connecting our marketing data to CRM was key for us to be effective and allows for easy targeting based on our full set of CRM data. CRM connection is clearly an area of investment for them as they continue to improve with dynamic lists and the upcoming campaign object support which will further allow us to leverage CRM data to drive our campaigns and effectively measure ROI.
Finally, the item that has been the biggest positive for us is the support the Salesfusion team provides. The program is not without its issues and learning curve, but having the support team there to help makes us confident we can solve our problems quickly. Everyone I have interacted with in support has always been courteous and out to help us solve our issues as fast as possible. The support model and team Salesfusion has is definitely a huge asset for them.

What do you dislike about the product?
They are in the middle of updating the platform which leads to some UI inconsistencies and confusion on which version of a feature to use when. They are cleaning things up steadily and the new capabilities are much improved just hope the transition will be completed soon. Also, wish Salesfusion integrated with more 3rd party platforms and services. We can and have worked around this through custom API connections (with their support teams help) but sponsored/managed integrations would be very helpful. We need to capture a holistic view of our customers and prospects. For our marketing automation system to be the true hub of that data we need to be able to collect and interact with all our customer touchpoints effectively. They recently updated their API which I am told will open things up for continued integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We wanted an easy to use scalable platform that we could grow with. Our previous solution was solely email marketing focused and we wanted to move beyond that to encompass the full customer journey which Salesfusion helps us do through its capabilities and CRM integration. Using Salesfusion we have seen increases in leads, better conversion rates due to nurturing programs and effective segmentation as well as reduced manual labor and improved quality as we were able to automate significant portions of our lead entry process using built in lead routing and assignment functions in the tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a tool that is on the rise and geared towards ease of use while still providing a lot of marketing horsepower Salesfusion is something you should consider. They may not be as well known as other competitors but their pricing (when we looked) was very favorable compared to other options and the capabilities were at least on par. Our experience with their support team has also been very positive which has been a huge plus for us.
Ideal for Small to Mid Size Businesses
What do you like best about the product?
It is fairly intuitive to use and the pricing is not to prohibitive. Some of the features are a bit clunky and as of late we have been having issues with email sends. Overall though, the platform offers everything you would want. The email setup is simple, creating forms/landing pages is easy and reporting could be improved on their end.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that our emails have been having issues sending as of late, even test emails are having trouble. The support though is for the most part on top of it and helpful but at times can seem like they just escalate things to get them off their plate but nothing gets done. Creating a report could be an easier process and really creating anything new could be easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides a platform that can be connected with many CRMs and allows for customization in that sense. It has allowed our very custom CRM to work pretty well with the email platform.
good so far, only been using since march
What do you like best about the product?
email customization, and how easy it is for our staff to log on and create their campaigns
I just learned about the lead scoring tool and this helps our recruiters know who best to reach out to.

What do you dislike about the product?
The analytics I do not find very user friendly. Maybe if it was a little more straight forward
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are reaching a lot of our clients and candidates regularly with tracking benefits.
Our clients and candidates have been staying in formed regularly now.

Good experience with current platform!
What do you like best about the product?
SalesFusion is a rather intuitive platform and user-friendly tools. Their customer service is also very helpful, and they are making constant strides to improve their product.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is room for it to become more customizable, with limitations on the drag and drop tool, as well as the ability to recall campaigns at different steps of the journey and the like. Some of the customer experience can be optimized, but once you find where certain tools live, they are quite helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SalesFusion has a lot of benefits that we have to utilize. Currently they are a good tool for e-marketing efforts, and there is also room for it it make up for some of the shortcomings of our "CRM" tool, which is great.
Lots of functions
What do you like best about the product?
It has all of the bells and whistles you want. The ability to view campaign-specific dashboards is also great.
What do you dislike about the product?
My campaign timezone is always wrong, so I always have to convert local time to Azores GMT... Even though my account is setup with my local timezone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Fully-tracked communications are able to be distributed. It's allowed us to identify those who are engaging with our content.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Learn HTML/CSS so you can have greater flexibility in your email designs.
SalesFusion offers great flexibility and is easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
SalesFusion is easy to use, I can create and send a message to my audience very quickly and without difficulty, and whenever I have a problem or a question, the response from customer service is always very fast and extremely helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be helpful to have better reporting options, and it can be difficult sometimes to find old messages when I need to find and refer to them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We reach a large audience of clients with regular communications via SalesFusion, keeping them informed of all the necessary news and information they need to be aware of.
Incredible Support
What do you like best about the product?
The platform is very effective and the analytics are great. What I value the most is the support team though. As someone that is not a programmer, it is vital to our success to have instant access and assistance when needed
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes read more like a coding language, so for us that are not programmers it sometimes get confusing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We mostly utilize it for mass emails, and follow up after. We utilize the analytics to see who has opened and clicked links to see who is a hot lead so we can call them.
