CRM built for teams that sell in Gmail and Google Workspace every day.
About this tool
Highlights
- Gmail/Calendar integration
- Opportunity pipeline
- Contact automations
- Zero friction with Google
Ideal for
SMBs on Google Workspace wanting pipeline without leaving Gmail. Light to medium B2B with relatively short cycles.
Light automations tied to email and deal stage. Enough for simple follow-up; insufficient for complex RevOps or multichannel cadences. Map the sales playbook before scaling automations; poorly defined flows add noise and reps stop trusting the system.

Solid fit for reports & customizable dashboards when your team needs structured execution and practical adoption support.
The mobile app covers field work well: log activities, move deals, review history, and stay in sync with the desk. Sync and permissions usually track the web experience without major funnel drift. For field or hybrid teams, practical parity cuts end-of-day rework.
Commercial documents are supported, but limited templates, plain exports, or weak review collaboration still create friction. Works for standardized proposals; complex deals or heavy CPQ may need another tool. Confirm signing, versioning, and send tracking match your real process.
Native Google integration is core; smaller marketplace. Beyond Google needs iPaaS; irrelevant for Microsoft-first environments. Validate native ERP and channel connectors before you commit; poorly planned integrations create rework and inconsistent CRM data.

Fast activation for Google teams — days. Little consulting needed. Less automation and reporting depth than HubSpot or Salesforce. In a pilot, lock a minimal pipeline and data import in the first weeks; that shortens rollout and avoids rework later.

Solid fit for training & enablement library when your team needs structured execution and practical adoption support.
Support resolves common cases, but integrations, permissions, or specific bugs may need multiple touches or an external partner. Help center covers essentials; advanced scenarios not always. Document critical configurations internally so peak selling season is not ticket-dependent.
Solid fit for funnel field modeling when your team needs structured execution and practical adoption support.
Calls, emails, meetings, tasks, and notes attach to contacts and deals with a trustworthy timeline for SDR, AE, and post-sales handoffs. Email and calendar integrations cut manual logging and improve coverage. Managers see real cadence, not just open opportunity counts.
Affordable USD per user inside Workspace. Excellent Google-native fit; poor outside that ecosystem. Compare licenses, rollout, and add-ons over 12 months; list price rarely tells the full investment story.

Supports moderate growth, but plan limits, heavy report performance, or replicating playbooks across units start to appear. Still viable with a dedicated admin and disciplined data architecture. Review licensing and integrations before doubling headcount or opening branches.
Solid fit for ai in daily workflows when your team needs structured execution and practical adoption support.
Solid fit for privacy & compliance (gdpr/lgpd-style) when your team needs structured execution and practical adoption support.
