Check the industry leader rating for both platforms* Nutshell Recent Reviews 4.5 Act 4 Recent Act Reviews It's so hard to use. The search function is completely ineffective. You can't sort or filter anything. I'd be better off with an Excel spreadsheet of company names and contacts. 4.1 Act 3.8 Recent Act Reviews "Doesn't live up to expectations and client support is slow, often times helpless. " "Nutshell is very basic and not the best experience for a CRM" "Nutshell fails to deliver on so many levels" The UI isn't great. 4.5 Act 4 Recent Act Reviews It is not very stable. The software would often freeze on us and it would often crash. It did not have an email directly from the CRM option which would have been nice. 4.5 Act 3 Recent Act Reviews There are some minor bugs with nutshell that may affect performance. The UI can be a bit cluttered/clunky at times the lack of a well put together mobile app makes it a pain to use on mobile devices. * All registered trade marks, company names and brand names used on this website are the property of their respective owners, reviews and testimonial are taken directly from the mentioned reviews web sites.

Limited and Buggy Features Not-So-Useful Reports Declining Support Quality 1. Limited and Buggy Features Most of the features we'd look for in a CRM tool is either missing or incomplete. For example, you cannot add BCC or CC while sending out emails using Nutshell. A customer posted a review saying, "Nutshell does have a reasonable email interface to send correspondence through our IMAP server, but the markup tags are cumbersome, are error prone, have no CC or BCC field, and the reply emails don't populate under the Nutshell customer(s). Consequently, only half of the conversation is visible." - Eugene B, President One other simple yet annoying issue is that the search function is more of a problem than being useful. It is slow, fickle, and almost never returns the results that you'd look for. This is time-consuming and makes your life much more complicated than it already is. Several customers posted reviews online saying, "I really hate that when I do search, it rarely finds me what I need, and almost never quickly. It's difficult to find phone numbers, if I search someone's name, it'll pull up everyone's not CLOSE to what I'm searching for, but somehow not the specific person...." "I would say the search engine is very fickle, sometimes you can put in specific words and you get some crazy thing that has nothing to do with the company or person you're looking for and then you can misspell what you're looking for and get exactly what you want." - Vince H, District Business Manager Whereas Apptivo with its advanced search and email function, coupled with user-friendly UI, years of experience, and feedback proves to be the better choice. 2. Not-So-Useful Reports Nutshell CRM reports aren't robust and lack many of the intuitive and basic features when compared with Apptivo CRM's reporting capabilities. A customer posted reviews on GetApp saying, "The new reporting format is a really poor user experience, putting irrelevant information front and center and making it harder to access the custom set-ups I need to make Nutshell work for me." - Stephen L, Executive Director The Nutshell CRM lacks many of the advanced filters and reports that growing and enterprise businesses would need. Thus, it has minimal use when making critical business strategies. A customer posted a review online saying, "Missing obvious reports like a weighted pipeline. Customization with reports is limited." - Stephen S, President "Reporting for specific items can be challenging as well." - Mitch P, Information Technology and Services Unlike Nutshell CRM, Apptivo with its advanced reports and the ability to generate custom reports coupled with user-friendly UI proves to be a better choice. 3. Declining Support Quality Like features and integrations, customers also look for the best Support in Software. Great customer support not only keeps the customer happy but also acts as free marketing for any type of business. "It has been challenging to be able to connect with support staff about a technical issue." - Daniel S, VP Sales Customers paying a premium price might expect the company to support them whenever necessary. In the case of Nutshell CRM, customers feel that the quality of support has declined over the years and isn't readily available. A customer posted a review on GetApp saying, "Support is very slow to respond. I've watched the service get worse over time." - Stephen S, President Unlike Nutshell, Apptivo Customer Support operates 24/7 throughout the year and supports Live Chat, Email, Call, FAQs, and User Guides. * All registered trademarks, company names and brand names used on this website are the property of their respective owners.
