- 6Google Sheets is falling apart for tracking leadsManual spreadsheet tools break down as lead volume and partnerships increase, but traditional CRMs often lock essential export and reporting functions behind costly tier upgrades. This friction leaves growing teams stuck between clumsy spreadsheets and overly complex enterprise software.
