Contactually CRM (discontinued) vs. Demandforce

Contactually is a very powerful CRM, even though it is extremely simple to use. It is very intuitive and fun to use! Their templates for nurturing and follow-up are phenomenal, so if you have a sales cycle, this is the tool for you. I even use it to keep track of family and acquaintances' interactions, as Contactually can alert me when it's been 30 days since the last time I talked to person A. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is because price has been going up in recent years.

We use Demandforce to reach out to 'old' customers. If they have not had an invoice generated in X number of days/weeks/months/years, we can create a custom campaign via email/text to reach out to them and attempt to re-engage with those customers to generate new 'existing business' or entirely new leads for our Sales team to run.

• The get connected prompts is a very useful feature.
• Good data consolidation picked up from a variety of sources.
• Once added, the contact profiles are updated regularly with how the contacts' LinkedIn profile would change.

Incentivized

• Aesthetics has been updated in last few months for organization and is easier to see: colors, grid lines on front page, and font style.
• Allowing our office to include specific items in reminder appointment emails allows personalization to make confirming appointments easier.
• Allowing patients to write reviews allows us to know what the office is doing well and what we can improve on.

Incentivized

• Pipeline functions. It's pretty bare minimum right now.
• Capturing text and phone calls outside the app. It's hard to remember to initiate both from the app.
• Calendar function. You should be able to edit the calendar in Contactually and it would sync with your Google calendar.

Incentivized

• Flexibility in Design!
• Overall Look & Feel of Templates (look at what Squarespace is doing, it is possible!)
• Usability (it's a bit clunky)

Just doesn't provide the sophistication that I seek. It's a simple solution with some innovation automation relatively speaking, but ideal for individuals and small businesses with basic CRM needs.

We are constantly being contacted by comparable organizations. If Mindbody Online integrated a feature like Demandforce, we'd move over there to keep everything in one platform.

Easy to use, does not require a strong technical background at all.

It seemed to have everything that I wanted and wasn't too expensive.

I do not have any alternative products to compare this service too. It was in place when I came aboard this company and I have no say in its continuation or replacement. As from what I can gather, there are many alternatives to this platform, but Demandforce is the only one I am aware of that runs in your system tray and is passively ran in conjunction with your accounting database.

Incentivized

• It's had a very positive impact in building and maintaining my relationships. The ROI has been positive as an affordable and user-friendly CRM.

Incentivized

• It's taken a lot of the reporting and guesswork out of the equation. That has saved us a lot of money.
