The Challenges

01
The pathivy’s reliance on a fragmented tech stack—centered around Pipedrive and supplemented by multiple third-party tools—led to rising costs, workflow disruptions, and a lack of technical control.

This complexity hindered operational efficiency and limited collaboration between sales and marketing.
