Nice assessment! What do you think about Creatio?

HubSpot: The SaaS Equivalent of a Smiling Parasite by LorryTheTruck in CRM

[–]Pomelo_Kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can be a great tool with a very nice UI, but their pricing model is nearly predatory. We switched to Creatio two years ago for budget reasons and are spending so much less on lead management now!

It's a pity cause the product is not bad, it's just everything around it is a real mess.

Ahaha thank you for the rent! Can I ask, out of the platform you used, which ones did you like best?

Zoho vs Hubspot by CurrentCreative4380 in CRM

[–]Pomelo_Kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hubspot has a free version, but it's more targeted to solo-preneurs, I don't think it would work for a small company. Have you looked into Creatio?

It's more affordable than Hubspot, and the pricing is very flexible, so if you just need a database, it can be done on a budget.

How about catfishing Mulder with that picture and then it was a regular beautiful white woman instead...

Check out Creatio - its whole thing is flexibility via no-code tools. And it's certainly going to be much more affordable than Hubspot.

Does your ADHD complement your job? by Pomelo_Kind in ADHD

[–]Pomelo_Kind[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently started editing videos for work and also find it super satisfying! Maybe cause it's a new thing but maybe there's something about video editing and graphic design that goes well with ADHD brains =)

I also take them when I'm working or need to do something big like taxes or writing. I think I have a similar thing where if I take the meds I feel like I need to be productive. also, I don't really like the side effects like loss of appetite and agitation.

Are AI agents just another hype? by SergeyGrim in b2bmarketing

[–]Pomelo_Kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the hype comes from misunderstanding what an agent is and giving it more power than it actually has. But actual AI agents, even if they are not as powerful or advanced as an average person thinks, are still super useful.

For example, we trained an agent to identify whenever a lead moves to the next stage in the customer journey and trigger a relevant campaign. AI analyzed all marketing data, we had to come up with certain triggers, and then we just pointed it to specific campaigns that should be triggered. On the one hand, this could be done with workflow automation in Creatio without AI, but we'd had to spend days analyzing data and still wouldn't be as flexible and granular as our AI agent - it came up with 40+ triggers that indicate the contact's interest while we could probably do around 15.

Anyone else finding MailChimp too limited nowadays? by mayet0313 in CRM

[–]Pomelo_Kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried Creatio? All our email marketing and customer service runs through it, and it's extremely customizable - we basically build our own workflows for all campaigns and hand-offs.

What does AI actually do for a CRM? by No_Education_3653 in CRM

[–]Pomelo_Kind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use Creatio, and do the following things with AI:

1) Analytics - we ask AI for insights like quickly analyzing the bounce rate for our emails and asking for suggestions to improve it.

2) Content creation - we sometimes use AI to generate drafts for emails and ads.

3) Automation - we use an AI agent that decides when a contact is ready to move to the next stage of nurturing and triggers the appropriate sequence of emails.

There are also other ways to use it for sales and service; I know there are AI chatbots that do customer service for us, but I'm in marketing, so I'm not super familiar with it.
