Pipeliner CRM is a robust platform designed to consolidate customer relationship management for businesses of all sizes. However, some organizations may find that its comprehensive features are more than what they need, especially if they are primarily focused on managing contacts. Additionally, the cost associated with individual licenses for each team member can quickly add up, making it less feasible for smaller businesses or startups.
Fortunately, there is a much more cost-effective and efficient solution for companies that require contact management capabilities. Integrating Pipeliner CRM with Shared Contacts Manager within Google Workspace offers a powerful alternative. This integration enables seamless sharing and updating of contacts without the heavy charges tied to multiple CRM licenses.
