Number of Seats/Users: 1CRM offers discounts based on the number of users or seats. A higher volume typically leads to a better discount structure, especially for enterprise-level usage.

Commitment to a Long-Term Contract: Discounts are often provided to companies that commit to using the service for a longer period (e.g., 1-year or 3-year contracts). A longer commitment shows 1CRM that the company is serious and willing to invest in the platform long-term.

No Active Discounts: Companies that are not already receiving other active discounts may have a better chance of qualifying for additional discounts from 1CRM. 1CRM reserves discounts for new customers or those not currently under promotional pricing.

Volume or Usage Commitment: 1CRM offers discounts if you agree to a minimum amount of usage or transaction volume. This could be based on data storage, transactions, or other metrics tied to how much you will use the platform.

Enterprise-Level Negotiation: Companies that qualify as “enterprise” due to their size or complexity (e.g., having large teams, multiple departments, or geographical presence) may be eligible for additional discounts from 1CRM. Such companies are often in a position to negotiate for better pricing.

Early Renewal or Prepayment: 1CRM often offers discounts if you renew early or prepay for the entire contract period. This is a common approach to securing a lower price.

Here at Spendbase, our internal data shows that 1CRM consistently delivers strong value for small and midsize businesses looking for a cost-effective, flexible CRM solution. Our clients appreciate 1CRM’s focus on customization, comprehensive feature set, and ability to cover multiple business functions in one solution.

Key positives highlighted by Spendbase clients:

– All-in-one platform: Many clients find that 1CRM goes beyond basic CRM, incorporating project management, order management, invoicing, and service management. Businesses love the seamless module integration and ability to link sales, finance, and customer support.
– Customizability: Users regularly call out the ability to tailor modules, fields, roles, and workflows without coding. This helps businesses adapt the software to their specific needs, so they don’t have to change their processes to fit the software.
– Solid integration options: Our data shows clients enjoy integrating with tools like Xero, Quickbooks, and telephony solutions. Some wish for even more integrations, but most feel the basics are well-covered.
– Friendly pricing: The “bang for the buck” is a favorite theme. Many note that 1CRM’s pricing is well below giants like Salesforce, yet it packs in features those systems charge extra for.
– Helpful support: Our clients frequently mention fast, knowledgeable, and caring support. Many problems are resolved in hours, and customization requests are handled quickly.

Common challenges Spendbase clients have uncovered:

– User interface and usability: Some feel the design is a bit old-fashioned or too complex for new users. There can be “information overload” due to so many features, and some modules, like project management, seem less refined than others.
– Documentation and onboarding: There’s a consensus that better documentation and onboarding guides would help, especially around setup and more advanced functionality.
– Customer support experience: While support is often praised, there are isolated incidents where clients cite slow or unhelpful responses and communication breakdowns.
– Mobile and integrations: Several clients would like to see an Android App (currently only iOS) and more modern integrations, along with easier email and campaign setup.

Summary of feedback from Spendbase clients:

– Strengths: All-in-one business management, deep customization, integration options, great value, responsive support.
– Weaknesses: Steep learning curve for non-tech users, inconsistent support at times, interface could be modernized, request for broader integrations and mobile options.

Bottom line: Our internal data suggests that 1CRM is a powerful, flexible choice for growing businesses needing more than basic CRM at a reasonable price.
