It offers a great contact management system, import functionality, emailing, integration with Woocommerce

It is really friendly for beginners and easy to use.
Pros
It is really easy and friendly for tiny companies. I used many different crm-systems but I couldnt understand them. After I used bigin for some minutes, I knew: "This is the crm-system, for our tiny company with 5 people."
Cons
This is a really good question. At the moment I have no answer.

Pros
It is really convenient to setup and onboard users.
We tried a simplified process for one of our teams instead of using Zoho CRM (full one), but in the end lacked some functionalities here.
Cons
Limited customizing options, overall not so useful from mobile in our case.

Much more than a place to Bigin
Reviewed on 24/10/2024
Pros
Where it shines uniquely for me is its ability to be repurposed for any internal process that requires a pipeline - support desk, projects, expense requests, HR onboarding. It achieves this by letting you use any module independently to the others. Say you build a pipeline for HR onboarding. You don't need to associate a deal with a company - which wouldn't make sense in this context. Or a pipeline for projects - there's no requirement to attach a contact.
Cons
It is missing an elegant way to generate proposals or live working docs to share with clients but there are workarounds as you can connect Bigin to many of Zoho's other products. I think this is not a deal-breaker considering Bigin is a simplified platform aimed at small business operators who don't have specialised IT knowledge to implement and administrate a CRM.
