For CRM & Sales Software

Your CRM is only valuable if your sales team actually uses it.
DeepSync shows where adoption breaks down.

Sales teams live inside CRMs every day — managing pipelines, updating opportunities, logging activities, and forecasting revenue. But even the most powerful CRM fails if reps avoid features, skip workflows, or struggle with complex interfaces.

The challenge

Building CRM software is easy. Building habits is hard.

A CRM isn't used once a week — it's used dozens of times every day. If a workflow takes too many clicks or feels confusing, reps will find shortcuts, ignore features, or stop using the product altogether.

Deals that never move

Reps create opportunities but stop updating deal stages, and dashboards won't say which step in the update flow they abandoned.

Reports nobody can build

Managers rely on accurate CRM data, but forecasting breaks down when reporting feels too complex to use.

Onboarding that loses new hires

New reps abandon setup during contact import or pipeline configuration, quietly extending time-to-productivity.

Automation that ships and disappears

Advanced features like AI email generation or workflow automation can launch to silence, with no visibility into why.

The solution

Where DeepSync helps

DeepSync uncovers the behavioral patterns behind CRM adoption, helping product teams build software that sales teams actually enjoy using.

Sales Onboarding

Every new customer should reach value quickly

Replay onboarding sessions to understand where sales reps struggle to import contacts, configure pipelines, connect email accounts, or invite teammates. Reduce onboarding friction and shorten time-to-value for every new organization.

  • See exactly where contact import or pipeline setup stalls
  • Replay onboarding sessions for organizations that never activate
  • Shorten time-to-value for every new trial

Pipeline Management

The pipeline is the heart of every CRM

Understand how users create opportunities, move deals between stages, update forecasts, and collaborate across teams. Identify unnecessary clicks, confusing workflows, and abandoned actions before they impact adoption.

  • See how many clicks it really takes to move a deal stage
  • Identify abandoned opportunity updates
  • Compare pipeline usage across teams and territories

Automation & AI Features

Modern CRMs include automation and AI assistants

Journey analysis reveals whether customers discover workflow automation, email sequences, forecasting tools, and recommendations naturally — or never use them at all.

  • See whether new automation features get discovered at all
  • Measure adoption after a redesign or new release
  • Prioritize surfacing high-value features hidden in menus

On the ground

What this looks like in a real week.

CRM & Sales Software scenarios DeepSync teams run into — and how each one gets fixed.

01

The pipeline nobody updates

A CRM provider notices that sales teams create opportunities but rarely update deal stages after the first meeting. Session replay reveals that moving opportunities requires opening multiple screens instead of allowing drag-and-drop updates from the pipeline board.

The product team redesigns the workflow, cutting clicks in half; pipeline updates increase 34%.

02

Contact import fails on day one

A growing SaaS CRM sees thousands of trial signups every month but poor activation. Replay sessions show users abandoning onboarding while importing contacts because duplicate detection is unclear and import errors aren't explained.

The onboarding flow is redesigned with smarter validation and clear progress indicators; trial activation improves significantly.

03

AI finds the real problem

After launching a redesigned dashboard, customer engagement unexpectedly declines. DeepSync AI identifies that users repeatedly search for saved reports because navigation changed after the redesign.

The original navigation is restored with improved shortcuts; feature usage returns within days.

04

The automation nobody discovers

A CRM launches AI-powered email generation. Months later, adoption remains below expectations. Heatmaps reveal that most sales reps never notice the feature because it's hidden behind an overflow menu.

The feature is surfaced directly inside the email composer; usage more than doubles.

05

Sales managers can't build reports

Enterprise customers report difficulty creating forecasting dashboards. Session replay reveals managers repeatedly switching between filters because report configuration isn't intuitive.

The reporting experience is simplified with templates and guided setup; support requests decrease while report creation increases.

06

Mobile CRM friction

Field sales representatives frequently abandon opportunity updates on mobile devices. Replay sessions reveal forms require excessive scrolling and repeated data entry.

The mobile experience is redesigned with quick actions and intelligent autofill; daily mobile engagement rises substantially.

07

Enterprise teams never invite colleagues

Organizations purchase enterprise licenses but only a handful of users become active. Journey analysis shows administrators complete setup but never discover team invitation tools.

Invitations are integrated into onboarding, increasing organization-wide adoption.

08

Pricing creates enterprise confusion

Prospects repeatedly visit pricing before requesting demos. Heatmaps reveal buyers spending significant time comparing Professional and Enterprise plans before leaving.

The pricing page is redesigned with clearer feature comparisons; enterprise demo requests increase.
