The Net Emotional Footprint measures high-level user sentiment towards particular product offerings. It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.
While purchasing decisions shouldn't be based on emotion, it's valuable to know what kind of emotional response the vendor you're considering elicits from their users.

Powerful customization, but buggy and old

What differentiates Accelo from other similar products?
I wasn't able to find anything else like it when I looked. There are definitely apps out there that perform better in one particular category, but as an all-in-one I'm not sure who the actual competitors are.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
All of our data is in one place. From CRM and Deals, to Projects, Retainers, and tasks, we're able to keep everything in one place.
What do you dislike most about this product?
It can be buggy, as in the software doesn't always seem to behave in the way that the technical documentation indicates that it will. This means that some of the features that are there aren't usable, which is incredibly frustrating. Development is also slow compared with other apps, and I'm worried that it will be passed up in time.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Good for teams that have the ability to customize products, but don't want or need the ability for complete customization. Check out the Community Forum and idea board for shortalls and other customer issues.
