One size does not fit all. For our business, ASG is a perfect fit.
We are a multimedia business with a print magazine, network of websites, trade show, newsletters and radio show, before finding ASG, we were on the largest (and most expensive) CRM in the world. We struggled with the multiple add-ons you had to purchase and customize for an advertisng based business. ASG takes care of every aspect of the CRM process for an ad based organization. Just because there's the biggest CRM available out there, one size does not fit all.
CONSWith any CRM - commit to a minimum of one year! It really takes that time to get adjusted and your team feeling comfortable using ASG.

ASG has improved our inter-department communication
Since all our information is stored in one place, it makes communications from Management to Sales to Billing to Production all more seamless as notes can be tied to each individual account for each department to see.
PROSASG has allowed us to get rid of multiple other systems that different departments were using and store all our csm and ad information in one place.
CONSThere are improvements that can be made to the graphics side of how ASG integrates with our existing printing processes.
Reasons for switching to MediaOS
We had to utilize several workarounds to make magazine manager work with our magazine. ASG was a more seamless fit.

Great Software!
Ad Sales Genius has helped our company mainstream our process in many ways.
PROSI love that the software is constantly being updated and many things that we asked for were implemented very quickly.
CONSI was hoping that commissions would be calculated automatically, but we couldn't do it based on our commission structure.

Give it a try!
Our company is very small - we have a total of 6 ASG users - and we all have our hands in different parts of the production process so we need access to multiple parts of ASG. ASG, like any other new system, can be a bit daunting at first because there are so many things it can do, but that is a good thing! Once you get used to it you will appreciate all the options it has. There are new features being incorporated and updated all the time. I really like the team is all that I have spoken to - because they are super nice, very fast at responding to tickets and always willing to help me.
PROSFor our company... - great for sales and CRM - organized - many options on reports and filtering - marketing to filtered lists - dashboard has everything I need to see through out the day - customer service is super responsive and very pleasant to talk to - developers take my ideas into consideration - continually pushing out new updates with new features - training videos and courses - attractive/not boring looking
CONSFor our company... - isn't quite what our production team needs - having to use QuickBooks Online isn't great but we are working with it - because of all the new updates some bugs occur periodically but once you send them a support ticket on it they fix it immediately - you cannot email back and forth with clients on 1 continuous thread like you would on an external email system

AD Sales Genius easy to use
Have been using ASG for 5 years now and wouldn't trust any other system to handle all of our publishing business functionalities.
PROSIt is easy to use and effective. The best thing about it is that you can manage your business from anywhere in the world.
CONSThere is no down fall to using ASG. Just like any other system it has glitches but os fixed in a blink of an eye and customer support is always a push of button away.

Best publishing software
Best tech support I've ever experienced. Very user friendly and the team is always accommodating to suggestions on new features or improvements.
PROSThis software is incredibly easy to use with no extra bloat that comes with other services. This software is specific to publishing so it works extremely well for us.
CONSI have no complaints about this software. The only (slight) downside is that I have a wish list of features that are still being developed. That's not necessarily a bad thing though, as the team is constantly working to make the software better at the direction of the users.

Ad Sales Genuis is Best CRM I Have Ever Used
I am very happy our company uses ASG because it helps me be more efficient, which allows me to have more time for generating sales not managing data. It is easy to use and helps me manage my projects.
PROSI can find everything I need on the client page: contact info, email correspondence, contracts, invoicing, past due balances, notes and follow ups. I love the docu-sign feature which makes managing my renewals so much easier for both me and the client. Reports are easy to run and system runs smoothly.
CONSCannot think of anything I don't like. I wish I knew how to use the email marketing tool or how to set up templates but that is on me for not taking the time to learn how to do this.

First Time User
But overall, the software accommodates our needs with a few bumps and bruises.
PROSI just started at this company about 6 months ago and this was my first experience with Ad Sales genius. There was some necessary training required, but over the interface and interaction has been great. The staff is available and able to video chat which is very helpful, when we need them.
CONSI do think the email conversation could be improved. Sometimes the responses are as helpful as we would like. Perhaps we are not explaining in detail what the issue is, but the feedback can be less than stellar to try to troubleshoot how to fix the problem.
Reason for choosing MediaOS
Unfortunately, I was not included in making this decision. So, I can't exactly speak on what the deciding factor was. However, we have stayed and haven't ventured to anything else so we like the product and will continue to use it.

All Sales Genius Is a All in One Tool
It has really helped me keep myself organized and on track with my clients. I don't know how I got along with out it. It is so user friendly and takes very little time to learn. It also helps keep client lists so everyone know who has what client. That is very helpful and I can look at the list where ever I am. I use it everyday all day in some capacity or another.
PROSI love that this software not only keeps track of accounts but also does all the accounting. I can see client lists, invoices, agings and keep track of client emails all on the site.
CONSThere isn't much that I don't like about this system. Maybe the editing of client info is the thing I had most trouble with but it was easy once I realized I wasn't doing it right.

ASG is Absolutely Superiorly Great
The flow of features. Keeping notes and followups are seamless with reminders. Logging insertions, invoicing, and emailing are seamless. No need to "remember" to go back and do something. All just flows and several tasks are accomplished in minimal time.
CONSSometimes editing is hard. There is a particular sequence of buttons to push, so the learning curve for using the software is pretty steep. In other words, it's nonfunctional until you do it right. However, once the operator learns the sequence of steps, it is easy.
Reasons for switching to MediaOS

Intuitive Platform
ASG is one stop shop and I appreciate that concept.
PROSASG is a user friendly platform and most features are intuitive. I value the full integration from the lead/contact/contract points on the sales side to the invoice/payment/report/commission features on the accounting side. The "activity" feature that is seen and shared by all levels of the team is most valuable.
CONSFrom an Accounting perspective I would like to see the ability to forecast true revenue potential- project cash in the bank on a per month basis. I would like more flexibiity with the report features as well. It would be nice to generate a report focusing on one field (any field I choose) for various time periods.

ASG is a fantastic product for our company

PROSSales management and client pipelines are easy to track through this software. It has made my job as a sales/general manager so much more seamless in our daily activities.

Still much to learn
Positive and a great product overall.
PROSThe updates to the software make the program easier to use in regard to client management but still have a lot to learn.
CONSIt seems challenging to make any even slight changes to a contract once it's been 'won' which makes it appear a mess to clients. That might just be something to figure out with the new software updates but it's a critically important day to day resource that doesn't seem intuitive at the moment.
