Simple/Basic CRM Software?

There's a real shortage of decent CRM software on the Mac. Daylite is probably the best of 'em.

 

make it in FileMakerPro or MS Access

 

bento or highrise

 

I vote for Daylite

our small business uses Daylite and has for a couple of years. It's a little quirky at times but the development team is very responsive and they update it regularly. It works well with iPhone syncing and it's pretty powerful.

Grab the demo and use it for a while. It has a bit of a learning curve but it's worth it.

 

CRM Software

Hi guys,
As per my experience regarding CRM business solutions, CRMLogic is a professional services firm focused on CRM business solutions. Their approach is a blend of management consulting and technology know-how, which provides us with contemporary business outcomes - not just software.
One can get benefit of their wealth of experience from simple solutions with little customization through complex extensions with deep integration to related systems at: http://www.crmlogic.com.au

 

I will recommend Maximizer CRM software. It is a provider of simple, accessible CRM solutions. I have been using it for many years. It has great features and there are many benefits of using Maximizer CRM Software and now with the cloud version it is available for the Mac.

 

CRM Software

I think what you really need is a good contact management solution. There are tons of CRM solutions out there, but most are going to be full of features that you probably won't need. I'd lean towards a web-based system so you don't have to worry about any compatibility issues. I recommend BatchBook, but there are a lot of other systems out there. If you need something with some more "OOMF", I suggest checking out crmsoftwarereview (dot) org. They've got a good collection of user based crm reviews.

 

Have you looked at Plan Plus Online, from Franklin Covey. You can use it on a Mac, PC, iPhone, iPad, etc

Base

Base is a really neat, tidy and intuitive solution. I have been using it since last week and really like it. Easy-peasy

I too am looking for something basic like this. I've worked with CRMs like Salesforce and Goldmine, however, those are too much power for what I want.

I mostly just wish to have the ability to organize contacts by company, and keep notes and schedule tasks pertinent to each contact.

I'd also like to view them by company, so the workflow would look/act like:

View list of companies
Open company
View contacts/basic info about company
Open contact
View info pertinent to contact (email correspondence, notes, tasks, etc.)

I was hoping something in the price range of Bento would be able to do this (only one user is necessary.. for now), and it would be able to export data in case we move to another CRM in the future.
