Streak vs. Less Annoying CRM

Last updated on

PS

Streak and Less Annoying CRM are both simple CRMs. Streak is the slightly more powerful option, offering robust email automation, workflow automation, and reporting capabilities, making it ideal for growing teams that heavily use Gmail and need advanced features.

Less Annoying CRM, true to its name, focuses on simplicity and ease of use, making it better suited for small businesses or solopreneurs who prioritize basic contact management and straightforward pipeline tracking over advanced features.

Advantages of Streak

Streak offers superior workflow automation capabilities
While Less Annoying CRM lacks any automation features, Streak provides a straightforward automation module that can handle common use cases like updating data fields when deals move stages. This makes Streak more suitable for teams looking to reduce manual work and standardize their processes.
Streak is more powerful in email automation

We found Streak's email sequence functionality to be surprisingly robust and easy to use, allowing users to create and manage automated email sequences directly within Gmail. Unlike Less Annoying CRM, which requires third-party integration for email automation, Streak's native functionality lets users set up sequences with customizable delay times, making it particularly valuable for sales teams focused on email outreach.

Streak includes built-in data enrichment capabilities
Unlike Less Annoying CRM which lacks data enrichment features, Streak offers built-in contact and company data enrichment capabilities (though on higher-tier plans). This is particularly valuable for sales teams looking to quickly understand their prospects without manual research.
Streak provides more comprehensive reporting

Streak offers custom reporting capabilities and the ability to track various metrics including pipeline and activity data. This contrasts sharply with Less Annoying CRM's extremely basic reporting, which is limited to activity logs and task lists, making Streak better suited for teams needing meaningful analytics.

Advantages of Less Annoying CRM

Less Annoying CRM is significantly easier to use
With its minimal feature set and intuitive interface, Less Annoying CRM offers an extremely straightforward user experience that any SMB employee can master immediately. While Streak is also relatively easy to use, it has a steeper learning curve, particularly for advanced features like automation. This makes Less Annoying CRM ideal for small teams prioritizing simplicity over advanced functionality.
Less Annoying CRM offers broader email platform support
Less Annoying CRM integrates with both Gmail and Outlook for email and calendar syncing, while Streak only works with Gmail. This makes Less Annoying CRM more versatile for teams using different email platforms, particularly those in Microsoft-centric environments.

Streak is best for

  • Businesses with a low volume of customer interactions (10-50 messages/calls per day)
  • Who need to manage relationships and send email sequences without leaving Gmail
  • And who want straightforward automation for simple workflows like updating deal stages

Less Annoying CRM is best for

  • Businesses with a very low volume of customer interactions (<10 messages/calls per day)
  • Who need basic contact management and task tracking
  • And who want an extremely simple, intuitive interface that any employee can use immediately

Streak is less good for

  • Businesses with a high volume of customer interactions (>100 messages/calls per day)
  • Who require Outlook integration or multi-channel communication (SMS, live chat)
  • And who need marketing automation capabilities beyond email sequences

Less Annoying CRM is less good for

  • Businesses with a moderate to high volume of customer interactions (>10 messages/calls per day)
  • Needing more than basic sales features like workflow automation, lead scoring, or revenue tracking
  • And/ or requiring built-in marketing capabilities or meaningful analytics

Functionality
6

Functionality

6/10

<p>For a CRM that operates within your Gmail inbox, Streak offers a surprisingly robust set of features. In addition to managing contacts and pipelines, it provides email sequences, data enrichment, an AI co-pilot, and custom reporting.</p><p>However, it lacks some advanced features, such as tracking web visitors, capturing contacts via webform and ability to create custom objects.</p>
2

Functionality

2/10

<p>LACRM provides very barebones functionality. You can store contacts, track communication, and manage pipelines - but that's about it. You're unable to send emails, access any meaningful reports or automate workflows.</p>
Ease of Use
7

Ease of Use

7/10

<p>As a CRM that sits on top of your Gmail inbox, Streak is easy to set up and use.</p><p>Key workflows are also intuitive. In particular, you can easily add contacts to your pipeline from your email threads via a sidebar and easily enrol contacts into an email sequence.</p><p>Some of the more advanced features like automation however, has a bit of learning curve to them.</p>
9

Ease of Use

9/10

<p>Thanks to its minimal features, LACRM is extremely straightforward and intuitive. It only has four main tabs: Workspace, Contacts, Calendar, and Reports. Any SMB employee can set it up and start using it immediately.</p><p>The only drawback is that pipelines are found under "Reports" and are viewable only as a list, not as a board.</p>
Look and feel

Look and feel

5/10

<p>We find Streak visually acceptable, though its layout is a bit cluttered at times. Our main gripe however, is that Streak loads slowly e.g. when you login, it takes at least 5-6 seconds before Streak loads.</p>

<p>The software is clear, clean, and fast-loading, though it feels a bit visually <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">uninspiring.</span></p>
Customisability
7

Customisability

7/10

<p>Streak allow you to customize most things, from fields, pipeline stages, reports, saved reports and workflows.</p><p>However, it lacks the ability to add custom objects, which allows you to track items besides contacts and companies, which may limit Streak's useful to build more complex workflows.</p>
6

Customisability

6/10

<p>You can customize some aspects, like setting up custom pipelines, adding custom fields, and saving custom filters. It's useful for tracking non-sales activities like job applicants or partners. However, it doesn't offer custom objects or reports.</p>
Ease of Setup

Ease of Setup

9/10

<p>Streak offers a self-serve free trial. It takes almost no time to get started with Streak, which is simply a Chrome Extension that sits on your inbox. Fully customising the platform with workflow automation and reports is still straightforward, and can be done within 1 business day.</p>

Ease of Setup

9/10

<p>LACRM offers a simple, self-serve free trial. Initial set up (e.g. importing contacts via CSV/ syncing from Google or Outlook, syncing calendar) was largely simple, although slightly confusing since setting up a pipeline is found under the "reports" module. Due to LACRM's barebones functionality, fully customising will take no time - can be done within an hour.</p>

<p>LACRM offers 25 pre-built integrations with tools like Google and Outlook Calendar, Mailchimp, and calling software. However, it lacks integration with many software categories, such as customer support, data enrichment, and analytics software. It does offer an API for custom integrations.</p>
