In its favor

Why people choose Anthill CRM

The signal that keeps Anthill CRM on the shortlist. Sourced from G2, Capterra, and customer scoping calls.

Anthill's workflow streams let teams assign actions to Sales, Admin, and Support and monitor each team's performance on live dashboards, making it popular with operations-led businesses that want process visibility rather than just contact storage.

The per-user pricing at £55–75/month with unlimited storage, automations, and dashboards provides cost predictability that mid-market teams cite as a reason they chose Anthill over larger platforms.

Anthill's dedicated CRM Success Manager and free onboarding for multi-site deployments (11+ users) earns consistent praise in reviews, with customers highlighting the team's responsiveness during live deployment issues.

The platform's full customer journey tracking from first contact through post-sale care attracts businesses that want to manage leads, quotes, invoices, and SMS reminders within a single system.

Bespoke customisation is available on Professional and Enterprise tiers, allowing businesses with complex sales cycles to configure Anthill around their specific processes rather than adapting to a fixed schema.

Customers report that Anthill does not integrate natively with external systems like dealer management platforms, forcing teams to maintain separate tools and re-enter data manually.

Some reviewers note the dashboard UI could be more flexible and that additional filters would help surface insights without exporting to external tools for further processing.

A steep learning curve in certain workflow and customisation areas has been cited as a barrier for teams that need to onboard quickly, with users noting it takes longer than expected to configure advanced automations.

Multiple reviews mention glitches appearing during live operation that only surfaced after the testing phase, suggesting gaps in the pre-deployment validation environment for heavily customised configurations.

Platform scorecard

Strengths, weaknesses, and where Anthill CRM fits

Grades across six dimensions, plus a SWOT-style view of where the platform shines and where it falls short.

SWOT — strengths, weaknesses, and use-case fit

Strengths

Workflow-centric design maps naturally to businesses with complex, multi-team customer processes.Unlimited storage, workflows, dashboards, and automations on all tiers removes record-count anxiety.Dedicated CRM Success Manager and free onboarding on 11+ user deployments provides structured go-live support.JSON and SOAP APIs provide programmatic access to Enquiries, Customers, and other core objects.Integrates with Sage, Google Analytics, and WordPress, covering common SME stacks.

Weaknesses

Dashboard configurations are not exportable — they must be manually recreated in the destination.No native integrations with some external systems (e.g. dealer management platforms), limiting data synchronisation options.Public API documentation is thin; no published rate limits, bulk-export endpoints, or field reference guide.The workflow-as-pipeline model requires careful remapping when migrating to column-based CRM platforms.Review corpus is small (24 verified reviews) — limited third-party evidence for deep technical due diligence.

Where it works

UK-based mid-market businesses with 11–50 users that qualify for free onboarding and a dedicated CRM Success Manager during deployment.Operations-led companies managing customer processes across Sales, Admin, and Support teams who need live role-based dashboards to monitor each team's performance.Multi-site organisations (11+ users) where the free training and setup package, combined with per-user pricing at £55–75/month, provides cost visibility.Businesses with complex, multi-stage sales cycles that benefit from workflow streams mapping every customer interaction rather than simple pipeline columns.Companies running Sage, Google Analytics, or WordPress who need native integrations within a single platform for contacts, quotes, and automations.

Where it struggles

Teams dependent on external systems like dealer management platforms that require native CRM synchronisation, as Anthill lacks these integrations and forces manual data re-entry.Organisations needing flexible dashboard filtering or quick insight generation without exporting to external BI tools, given the limited filter options reported in reviews.Businesses planning a future CRM migration where dashboard portability and comprehensive API documentation are required, since dashboard configs cannot be exported and the public API lacks published rate limits or bulk-export endpoints.Teams with heavily customised configurations who need thorough pre-deployment validation, as reviewers report glitches surfacing only after go-live rather than during testing.

What gets migrated

Anthill CRM object support

Object-by-object support for Anthill CRM migrations. Per-pair details surface during scoping.

Enquiries

Fully supported

Enquiries are the primary intake object in Anthill, created via the JSON API endpoint /api/v2/enquiries and automatically triggering the associated workflow on creation. We migrate Enquiries 1:1, preserving the enquiry ID returned at creation time and re-establishing workflow-state linkages in the destination.

Customers

Fully supported

Customer records hold the core contact and company data. Anthill's SOAP and JSON APIs expose Create, View, and Modify operations. We map standard fields (name, email, phone, address) directly and flag any custom properties for field-level review.

Workflows

Mapping required

Anthill's Workflows define every customer interaction process and allocate actions to teams. Because workflows are configuration-heavy objects with team-level assignments and state-based triggers, we export the workflow definitions as structured metadata and map each step to the destination's equivalent process object.

Activities

Mapping required

Activities tied to Enquiries and Customers represent touchpoints across the journey. We preserve activity timestamps and content but note that Anthill does not expose a documented activity-history bulk endpoint, so migration relies on per-record API pulls or CSV export supplemented with API validation.

Dashboards

Not in this platform

Anthill's live, interactive role-based dashboards are configuration files tied to the platform's internal visualisation engine. These cannot be exported as data and are not exposed via the API. We document dashboard structure during scoping and recreate key metrics manually in the destination where feasible.

Automations

Mapping required

Automations in Anthill trigger personalised notifications and email/SMS sequences based on workflow state transitions. Because automations are workflow-scoped and reference Anthill-specific contact properties, we map the trigger logic to equivalent automation rules in the destination CRM, noting any property naming differences.

Custom Properties

Mapping required

Anthill supports custom fields per object, but the schema is not publicly documented in a reference format. During scoping we pull a field inventory via the API and map each custom property to its destination equivalent, flagging any picklist or data-type mismatches.

Users and Team Assignments

Fully supported

Anthill organises actions by team (Sales, Admin, Support) and assigns owners to records. We map Users and their team associations directly. Note that Anthill does not expose a dedicated user-list endpoint in the public API documentation, so user data is collected during scoping.

Pipeline Stages

Mapping required

Unlike conventional column-based pipelines, Anthill represents deal progression through workflow stream states. We extract stage names and statuses from the workflow definitions and map them to the destination's pipeline stages, flagging any stages that have no equivalent.
