In contrast to some CRMs and platforms, Pipedrive is designed to scale and grow your business.

What happens when you integrate Convin with Pipedrive? 

You can automatically create a task in Pipedrive without any human intervention. 

Let's take a look at how you can integrate Convin with Pipedrive step-by-step: 

1. After the sales guy gets on a call with the prospect/client, the Convin assistance is activated and the call is automatically recorded by Convin. The transcription and analysis are ready to be consumed by all Convin users. 

2. As soon as the call is completed, a task is automatically logged in Pipedrive against the relevant lead, contact, account, and opportunity record in the CRM. 

   
Following a call, Convin can automatically push a completed task to the appropriate Pipedrive account. This task will contain the following data points:
1. Recorded call link
2. Topics Discussed
3. Action items/Next Steps

5. The overall sentiment of customer

3. There’s a chance that your sales rep may have created a task in Pipedrive before joining the meeting. In such cases, there are 2 possibilities- First, a new task is created with all the data points from Convin or the original task will get updated with Convin’s data. You can discuss your preference during the onboarding phase.
