Overview of Duplicate Management Integrations for Pipedrive

To optimize your customer relationship management, a CRM is an indispensable tool, and Pipedrive is one of the most efficient and easy-to-use CRMs on the market.

In order to ensure the success of your Sales, Marketing, and Support efforts, it is essential to have a healthy Pipedrive CRM 😌 This is reflected in the quality of your data: up-to-date information, valid emails, no duplicate contacts and organizations... Let's review the different options for identifying and handling duplicates in Pipedrive.

‍

Pipedrive's Native Duplicate Management Tool

Pipedrive offers a native duplicate management tool called "merge duplicates." This tool is available for all Pipedrive plans, from Essential to Enterprise.

"Merge Duplicates" Features in Pipedrive

The "merge duplicates" tool in Pipedrive allows you to identify duplicates at the contact or organization level.

For contacts, it relies solely on information such as name, first name, and organization, and only these details. If two contact records with similar names and first names are linked to the same organization, Pipedrive identifies them as duplicates. The same detection occurs for an email present on two contact records.

For organizations, Pipedrive focuses on the "organization name" and "address" fields. If this information is similar, it will treat them as duplicates.

When Pipedrive identifies duplicates, you have the option to merge them. Most data will be retained, but Pipedrive will still ask you to prioritize one of the two records.

Advantages and Limitations of Pipedrive's Merge Duplicates Tool

The main advantage of "merge duplicate": it's a native Pipedrive feature. Even if you have a basic subscription, you will still have access to this tool.

"Merge duplicates" automatically detects duplicate records:

• With the same full name,
• Two contact records working in the same company,

Saving you from manually filtering them.

However, "merge duplicates" will not be able to detect duplicates more finely. For example, if a lead has been entered a second time into your Pipedrive CRM with an error in their name and constitutes a duplicate record. Or if a company has been spelled in several ways and the address has not been entered. Additionally, you will need to manage the merging of your duplicates manually.

Dedupely is a platform that natively integrates with Pipedrive and manages duplicate data in your CRM.

Duplicate Management Features of Dedupely

Dedupely is an external tool that natively integrates with Pipedrive. It offers a platform dedicated to duplicate management.

This platform focuses on the following actions:

• Duplicate detection: identification according to rules programmed by you.
• Duplicate merging: you will need to set the rules for merging duplicates.

Dedupely allows merging all primary Pipedrive CRM objects: contacts, organizations, deals, tickets.

‍

Advantages and Limitations of Dedupely for Duplicate Management

Dedupely offers advanced identification and merging rules for Pipedrive. However, it requires access to an independent platform. The interface, although connected to your CRM, will be present in another tab (or window).

To handle duplicates in your Pipedrive, Dedupely will need settings. If the automatic scan is not enough, you can create duplicate identification rules.

For merging contacts, organizations, deals, or tickets, you also have the option to create rules. You can assign them more or less importance, and it's up to you to manage the criteria. You will need to get hands-on:

• Create the desired duplicate detection rules,
• Set the duplicate merging rules in the tool,
• Launch the scan and merge

‍

Be aware that if you have more than 25 occurrences for a duplicate, Dedupely will pause and ask you to manually accept this massive merge.On the other hand, be careful because this will have an impact on your data. Dedupely warns you from the start: once a merge is performed, there is no going back.
