Finnish consultant company Yet Another Data Agency Oy started Pipedrive cooperation with SaaShop Inc. With the partnership deal, Yet Another Data Agency´s Pipedrive international customers were moved to SaaShop. This allows both companies to focus on their core business. Yet Another Data Agency´s owner, Data Analytic Expert Mikael Ahonen, believes that everyone benefits from the partnership. Especially clients who now get their Pipedrive support from leading global software marketplace. Who is also an official Pipedrive Elite Partner.
Yet Another Data Agency is a consultancy, offering cost-effective data solutions with a focus on Microsoft Excel. YADA is doing consultation and implementations such as workflow automation and reporting. Over the years, the company has expanded it’s services to Pipedrive CRM. Adding it to the portfolio started naturally as Ahonen used the software himself and blogged about its benefits. Soon the company started receiving interest over the easy-to-use CRM, and the Pipedrive customer base started growing internationally.
“My company’s focus is mainly on data consultation. With a growing customer base it felt natural to look for a partner who is specialized in Pipedrive. A partner who could deal with bigger volumes and larger customer companies,” Yet Another Data Agency´s Mikael Ahonen explains. He continues:
“This is a cooperation that truly benefits all parties: Customers get services from a Pipedrive elite partner with a wide software range. I get to serve customers better by recommending them to a trustworthy partner. And SaaShop can grow their partner network.”
Smooth Pipedrive cooperation: one week between initial contact and a partnership contract!
For a busy entrepreneur and Data Analytic Expert like Ahonen, it was crucial to find a partner that shares the same values of smooth cooperation and excellent service. Ahonen researched software marketplaces, finding SaaShop (and its Finnish software marketplace Ohjelmistoja.fi). SaaShop convinced him with their wide SaaS software offering and good Pipedrive expertise.
“I was pleasantly surprised by the SaaShop team´s drive. After our initial chat we drafted the details of our partnership in couple of days and finalized everything within a week! This speaks volumes of SaaShop´s customer service – they are easy to work with and I can happily recommend them to my customers and network,” Ahonen says about the beginning of the cooperation.
The CEO of SaaShop, Kaj Seeste, also praises the easy process: “When Mikael contacted me and asked if we were interested in Pipedrive cooperation, I said yes of course. We got along great and understood the interests of both companies. The partnership was drafted quickly. We have well-established processes in place for cooperating with software vendors.”
He continues about the changing software market:
“The way SMB companies are buying their software is changing. There is so much hassle if you buy all the licenses from different companies compared to buying them from a one-stop webshop. Adding Yet Another Data Agency´s Pipedrive customers to SaaShop marketplace gives them opportunity to consolidate all the their SaaS tools into the same single payment. Also the SaaS license management side is way more easier to the customer with a self service portal and one customer support.”
SaaShop’s partner program allows Yet Another Data Agency, and many others, to focus on their core business while getting provision on Pipedrive leads. The program is especially beneficial for Microsoft IT-Vendors who have small or medium size Pipedrive and Microsoft license customers whose main business is service or IT consultancy and want to help their small to medium sized customers.
