What are the key features to look for in a CRM sales automation platform?

[michelleking]

Hi everyone,


I’m exploring CRM solutions to help streamline our sales process and improve efficiency. I’m particularly interested in platforms with strong sales automation capabilities. Could you share your insights on what key features or functionalities I should prioritize when evaluating CRM sales automation tools?


For example, should I focus on lead management, automated follow-ups, reporting, AI integration, or something else? Any recommendations or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated!


Thanks in advance!

I’ve been looking into CRM solutions for sales automation myself, and it can be overwhelming with all the features available. What really helped me was using customer service and support automation to see how different tools handle lead management, automated follow-ups, and reporting. It gave clear insights on what to prioritize and how AI integration can actually streamline processes. Using it made evaluating platforms much easier and helped me focus on what would truly improve efficiency.
