If we had to pick the key selling point, it’d be usability. AmoCRM keeps track of everything yet reduces info management to just a few clicks. All in all, this can be a great help for the smaller sales team that has more complex sales processes.

This is not for

It’s mainly geared for smaller sales teams. The biggest flaw that we can think of is that unlike some other big CRM’s, it won’t scale with your business. It’s very affordable, and supports up to 50,000 contacts and 800 Mb of disk space for the Enterprise plan per user. Also, it only offers a limited number of custom fields, but for most businesses, these should be more than adequate.
