Simplicity of how accounts, contacts and leads are mapped. Easy UI and regular updates on features.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Could be faster. When there is a lot of data in the platform, it could struggle with reporting and just the general speed of getting things out.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Definitely test it out end to end. The new version performs way better than what it used to be. Having a suite of products along with it from Freshworks also makes it easier to scale.
