About Freshsales CRM
The sales CRM in the Freshworks suite.
Freshsales is the sales CRM inside Freshworks, the customer-software vendor founded in 2010 by Girish Mathrubootham and Shan Krishnasamy. Freshworks started in Chennai with Freshdesk, listed on Nasdaq as FRSH in September 2021, and runs its commercial HQ from San Mateo with most of the product team still in India. The Freshsales product itself launched in 2016 and now sits next to Freshmarketer in what Freshworks packages as Freshsales Suite.
The reason to pull Freshsales into a warehouse is not that Freshsales lacks reports. Freshsales is good at telling sales what happened in the pipeline this week. The question leadership has to answer is which Freshsales deals turned into invoices, which Freddy AI nudge correlated with closing, and which lead source paid for itself twelve months later. Those answers only show up when Freshsales sits next to the accounting system, the marketing tool and the payments system.
