Our take
Since its foundation in Estonia in 2010, Pipedrive has grown into one of the world’s leading sales CRMs, rivalling the likes of Salesforce, HubSpot, and Agile. Indeed, it’s considered by many to be the best for sales management specifically - earning it a strong position in the space.
Pipedrive’s growth from a five-person startup has been quite spectacular, with the company reaching Unicorn status in 2020 and now boasting a team of over 1000. It also continues to develop its offering, for example with the launch of Pipedrive Pulse - which was designed to streamline prospecting workflows and focus on promising deals.
