Salary benchmarks
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.
Pipedrive’s growth from a five-person startup to 900-plus headcount across ten locations has been quite spectacular, but the last few years have seen the company go through a raft of significant changes. Chief among these is Vista Equity Partners majority investment in 2020, which brought unicorn status.
As well as this, former Google Director Dominic Allon also joined as CEO, while the company has also been expanding its executive team, with a particular focus on sales and marketing. The release of Pipedrive Pulse - which was designed to streamline prospecting workflows and focus on promising deals - strengthens Pipedrive's AI suite to an even greater degree. Already operating from a strong position, Pipedrive looks to be aiming for even greater growth.
