It gives a clear, real-time overview of all sales activities, making it easy to prioritize follow-ups and track progress at a glance. I especially appreciate how intuitive the interface is even new team members can get up to speed quick > > **Cons**: The trial period felt a bit short, especially for teams that are evaluating multiple tools and need time to fully explore all the features. A slightly longer trial would be great > > Very useful and easy to use. Close offers a streamlined experience tailored for sales teams, with intuitive features that enhance productivity. From the dashboard to communication tools, everything is designed to be accessible and efficient. It has definitely helped us stay organized and focused on closing deals faster. ----- ### "A Powerful Start-Up CRM We're Slowly Outgrowing" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *25 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a CRM, it's solid in many of the areas that count. Particularly for smaller companies, I think it offers a decent value for the cost. Its UI is user-friendly and easy to learn compared to many other CRMs, with colored icons and buttons generally in obvious places. It also has very powerful search functionality, which we used to drive a lot of automation and reporting for sales and service managers, first through Zapier and now through Close itself as well as they build out more internal automation triggers. They handle lead pages with lots of activities and notes really well, allowing you to filter down by activity, customer, employee, timeframe, or text searching. The AI summary at the top of the page can also be useful to get an overall picture. > > **Cons**: The reporting functionality leaves a lot to be desired. It's easy to pull slices of data through the search tool, but hard to compare those against each other or look at change over time. Many of the reports they do have around things like Opportunity pipelines aren't customizable enough to be useful (for example, you can only look at time for opportunities to move to the exact next stage in the pipeline, so any that skip a step or move backwards don't report properly and can't be filtered for), and there's no good workaround we've been able to find. They also have one limit that hurts automated workflows: you can only trigger them on a small subset of what their search tool allows you to look for. We are forced to still use Zapier in many cases, because there we can use the search results themselves as a trigger. I spoke with their product team years ago asking for workflows to trigger off of search results matching for a lead, but they've seemed to prioritize AI features and other updates instead. We'd save potentially hundreds per month if we had that one feature. > > It's been generally positive. Their support is reasonably good (though we have to sometimes take extra time to be escalated when we have clear issues that require it), their UI is easy to learn, and their activity tracking and search tools are very helpful. While we have our gripes with them, and may "age out" of our fit with them as we scale, they have helped us a lot as a startup. ----- ### "You really need to try CLOSE CRM" — 4.0/5 > **Dr. Brijendra** | *8 January 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use interface and very clean UI, amazing roadmap too, they do support under MS for startup program, this include call the customer features. > > **Cons**: Features sets are lacking, however they have a strong product roadmap, which helps to stick with the software > > Amazing CRM products, especially for startups ----- ### "Good and easy CRM" — 5.0/5 > **Ilan** | *26 March 2025* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to use and intuitive platform with good features > > **Cons**: We just started a few months ago, so nothing negative yet > > Good experience so far. Everything seems to be working as it should ----- ### "Phone Heavy Sales Team's Dream" — 5.0/5 > **Kyle** | *14 April 2022* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: no fluff. there are not 3 different places to log contacts/opps/accounts/leads it is all on one page. It is simple yet surprisingly powerful. Every one of my reps added can't get over how easy and fluid it makes their life. > > **Cons**: Dashboards are non existent. You will need to be comfortable with exporting/using zapier/or a few support partners to push your data into a visual appealing place > > It is everything we need except dashboards.
