BizConnect
[BizConnect] is a great tool for all those people who are messy in managing their contacts and want things to get managed. It is a comprehensive tool even for a large number of business cards. One can share contact to anyone using this tool without facing any difficulty. It manages contacts so well and I can get access to any of the contact very easily. It has some flaws like the customer support team and Subscription rate.

1. Making broad changes to data, like moving ownership of records from one user to another for a new Sales Rep or a moved Sales Rep. 2. Making broad changes to data for product changes, product introductions and such (product naming changes, product description changes, etc.). I recently had to make a change to the name of a Product Option. Product Options are a sub-object related to Product. This name change was in 22 places. Okay, 18 [is] not a lot, but to make this change individually 22 times is still very tedious and takes too much of my time. Instead, I set up my Grid with the Object and sub-Object and made all 22 changes at once with a mass change. Piece of cake. And I don't have to go back to several of the records to see if the change was made successfully (something you have to do with Dataloader). I could see the effective change all at once on my Grid screen.

  • Reshapes the user Interface into an intuitive, clean, easy and thoughtful way, meaning Salesforce can be practically used for applications that (in my Opinion) salesforce was never designed for.
  • Mass updates are a God send, Leaving quick and meaningful notes, setting up meetings with clients or upcoming calls to maintain contact, all from the same screen without information overload... a real achievement.

Cons
BizConnect
  • Its interface is a bit tricky.
  • Its charges [feel] outrageous and unfair to some extent.
  • Although its scanning is accurate, it takes time and I think this is the point where it needs improvement as scanning should be fast.

  • Does not allow users to create new Campaign Member records; we would like to be able to add multiple Campaign Member records to a Campaign in a Grid.
  • Does not allow users to create new Task records; we would like to be able to add multiple Tasks records related to the same user but multiple Opportunities and Contacts.

They have always been incredibly responsive to my questions. They have a great chat feature within their application for asking questions. Their replies show up directly within the app. Super easy functionality to use. On my own accord, I even reached out to the CEO of the company and have had a great dialogue with him on LinkedIn.

CamCard was a bit slow and pathetic tool for the management of business contacts. I really didn't admire the scanning feature of the CamCard which is the most exceptional feature of BizConnect. Moreover, CamCard didn't organize cards in a way BizConnect organizes. and the CamCard didn't work well according to my needs and demands.

This is the 1st inline editing product we have tested. The only reason we would ever go with another product is the price.
