Lead processing in Salesforce and Bitrix24

For our example, we will use a real company which manufactures industrial refrigeration equipment. 

The basic task of any CRM is to collect inquiries (leads, prospects) through a web form and subsequently process them. 

Let’s compare Salesforce Lead processing and Bitrix24 lead processing.

Salesforce has a Lead Process set up.  You can create web-to-lead forms which can be embedded in your website. When a form is submitted, a new lead is created in Salesforce. After which you process and then convert them.

When using Salesforce, the process for collecting and converting leads looks like this:

1. A new lead/ prospect fills and submits a form on your website 
   
   
   

2. A new lead appears in the Assistant on the homepage of the portal in Salesforce.
   
   
   

3. In the “leads” section, you can view all leads. You can view them in a table, kanban, or split.
   
   
   

4. You can convert a lead only through the lead card
   
   
   
   

5. After processing, a lead can be converted into an account, contact or opportunity.
   
   
   
   

   
   
   

6. On the accounts page, you can see the newly created account and opportunity from the lead.
   
   
   
   
   
   

Lead processing in Bitrix24

After migrating to Bitrix24, the same process will look like this:

1. Filling out the feedback form on your website.
     
   
   

2. The assigned responsible people for new leads receive a notification in Bitrix24 about a CRM form submission on the website.
   
   
   

3. The new lead is added to the CRM. Here and below, two types of presentations are available in deals: Kanban and list.
   
   
   

4. The lead is processed by moving it through the stages. Each stage is a reflection of the company’s workflow for processing new inquiries.
   
   At the last stage, the lead can be converted into a good or bad lead.
   
   
   
   
   

   
   
   

5. A good lead can be converted into different entities: deal, company, contact, and a combination of them.
   
   
   

6. If your company has different directions or categories (referred to as Sales pipelines in Bitrix24) of deals, you can convert a good lead to any of them.
   
   
   

7. On creation of a deal, the pre-assigned responsible person for deals in this pipeline receives a notification.
   
   
   
   

8. The deal then moves through stages, thereby moving it forward along the sales funnel. Deal in Kanban view:
