Hello everybody, we are looking for best practices on how to test API communication with Pipedrive and vice versa via webhooks. Currently, we are facing a lot of challenges due to the fact, that we cannot reliably separate the production pipeline and a potential testing pipeline. Currently, we are flagging test data to be able to filter these, because we are forced to use a single pipeline for production as well as testing purposes.

Is there someone out there having to deal with such challenges with a similar goal to make Pipedrive (implemented in a workflow of distributed systems) testable?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Looking for the best CRM choice for an early-stage tech company selling through product-led growth to medium and big companies. Don't know if Salesforce or HubSpot are too rigid for PGL and expensive. I also had an experience of companies outgrowing Pipedrive pretty fast

While Salesforce may be at the top end of pricing for a CRM, the functionality, customization, and ecosystem are top tier, if you are looking for cost efficiency and all-in-one solution I would lean toward HubSpot CRM (so long as you are already using them for you marketing automation platform).

If you already have a separate MAT in place and Salesforce is just out of budget then I think about any system that integrates with your marketing platform or has a decently built out data export so that when you do eventually migrate to Salesforce mapping the data over wont b be so cumbersome.

Pipedrive is a good beginner CRM, but you will probably outgrow within a year or two. One other to look into would be SalesLoft. With SalesLoft, you get email, cadences, phone calls, and meeting/call recordings, in addition to a lightweight deal management product. The good aspect here is that when you do eventually move to Salesforce, migrating data will be relatively easy and you will already have a sales enablement tool built.
