More LeadSquared Cons →

"The processing speed, the way information displays, and scrolling options can be improved.""We'd like to see more integrations with third-party products.""The general setup and understanding of how to use it can be improved. There should be easier self-service for setting up dashboards. Currently, we have someone setting them up for us. I wish it was easier.""The UA could be better designed for a mobile connection.""An additional feature needed would be better capacity for personalization.""The majority of my clients are happy, but when it comes to the CDP of Salesforce, the client gets confused. They have no clue that Salesforce has a CDP platform too. If my clients want to go ahead with the same vendor, Salesforce, they get confused about the different marketing suites which are available. There is no clear marketing done for the suites available for the clients, this is where the client is facing the real challenges.""There could be easier tools to configure the product and to create landing pages to better handle large data sets.""In a future release, adding end-user personalization would be a benefit."
