Pipedrive, the popular CRM provider, recently announced the removal of its WhatsApp integration, which was powered by Twilio. This change may leave many businesses concerned about their communication strategy, especially those that heavily rely on WhatsApp for customer engagement. But there’s no need to worry—there are better, more seamless solutions available!
Why Did Pipedrive Remove Its WhatsApp Integration?
Pipedrive likely decided to remove the integration to avoid the complexity and resources needed to build and maintain a complete WhatsApp solution, such as an advanced inbox and automations. Managing these aspects can be a challenge, which is where a more specialized solution like Mercuri comes in.
