Common Questions
No - most modern CRMs include mobile apps with their subscription. The question is which CRM has the best mobile experience for your workflow. If you are primarily in the field, prioritize CRMs with strong mobile apps over those with better desktop features.
Critical for true field sales. If you visit client sites, warehouses, or areas with poor connectivity, offline mode lets you access contacts and log activities without signal. Changes sync when you reconnect.
Built-in calling is simpler - everything logs automatically. Separate dialers offer more power features but require integration work. For most field reps, built-in calling is sufficient and easier to manage.
