Pipedrive

A cloud-based CRM for small businesses created by experienced sales managers in 2010. Now the system is fully operational in 140 countries of the world. The functionality is focused primarily on sales management, marketing, collaboration and reporting. However, the functionality lacks the ability to integrate with accounting, so there is no documentary support for sales. When dealing with clients, it will be difficult to issue invoices and manage contracts.
