Is Pipedrive the right choice for your small business?
Looking to move away from spreadsheets and start your CRM journey with Pipedrive?
Meet Bigin, the ultimate small business CRM solution that beats Pipedrive Essential, hands down.
Does Pipedrive give you the
head start that you need?
Pipedrive is one of the many CRM tools in the market that promises you a great system for your sales team's needs. As a budding business, you'll tend to start with the basic version of any software initially, and move toward more advanced plans as your business grows. But with Pipedrive, there's a real problem of settling for less features when you choose their basic (Essential) edition.
Built around the promise of helping sales teams organize their sales processes better, Pipedrive has severely restricted some of the important features that small businesses need to efficiently manage their customer-facing activities. All the features you get in the Essential edition are so basic that you are pushed to a higher plan to have access to even rudimentary automation features as part of your sales process.

Plus, you'll get all the necessary features to manage your pipelines effortlessly.
Even after subscribing to Pipedrive's Essential plan, you might have to end up doing more manual work simply because there is no pipeline automation. Other features like built-in telephony, customizable dashboards, and email insights which are available in Bigin ($7/user/month) are only available from Pipedrive's Advanced plan and higher ($25/user/month and above).

I am super impressed with Bigin. I was looking for a simpler lead management and automation tool and I have finally arrived at the right platform after trying multiple tools in the last few years. It has completely transformed the sales process and I regularly recommend Bigin to my contacts.
I want to sincerely thank the entire Bigin Team for developing this excellent platform for SMBs who are quite keen on getting rid of excel datasheets. My primary requirement was exactly the same, and Bigin has offered so much more. This has increased the overall productivity of my sales team, and I have already recommended Bigin to friends in different sectors.
I found Bigin extremely easy to learn and utilise. I was bit scared if my assistants will able to learn it quickly. But to my surprise they have started using fully within 2 weeks of time. Mobile apps and its connectivity with server is superb and quick.
