What is a deal team?
Freshsales enables multiple users to work on the same deal. For instance, in a company, a deal is closed in collaboration with multiple users such as account manager, sales representative, solution engineer, legal advisor, etc. Any sales rep who is part of a deal has the same access as the owner of the deal. Similarly, you can also create teams for leads, contacts, and accounts.
