A different shape
Built around the client, not the deal
In Pipedrive the deal is the main thing, and it moves left to right until it is won or lost. In Gather360 the client is the main thing. Each client has its people, its notes, its documents and its next follow-up.
That suits businesses where the work is ongoing: an HR consultancy with retained clients, an accountant with year-end deadlines, a builder with repeat customers.
- Follow-ups with a due date, priority and owner
- Notes that show who wrote them and when
- Documents filed privately against the client
