    Contactability
    Contactability is really good for teams that are trying to branch out to an untapped market space. Especially those that are trying to disrupt the health insurance scene. This helps them get their foot in the door in the area and their name out in the community. The customer service representatives could be more responsive.

    FollowUp CRM
    One of the best things about FollowUp Power is that we can mark things for follow-up several months down the line, which we frequently have a need for since many of our clients are seasonal. For example, we'll get started working with them while they're here in Florida for the winter, then they'll head back north in the spring and not want to hear from us again until they return in the fall. With FollowUp Power, we can then mark them for follow up in the future rather than to have to somehow remember to contact them in the future.

    Pros
    Contactability
    • The software reporting system is really clean and works well and they are good at sending you leads.
    • Their customer service is also willing to work with you and they really tried to help me improve our ROI.
    • Since using Contactability our workflow is changing. We now only pick up the phone when someone is interested in our services. The prescreening is all handled and we have control over the flow, what is said. Even when we're out of the office we can log in from anywhere and see what's happening with our leads and those missed calls get scheduled for us automatically.

    FollowUp CRM
    • We love the dashboard feature. This is where we spend the majority of our time. The dashboard helps us avoid missing bid dates and deadlines.
    • The system is very intuitive and a new user will be up to speed within one hour after they start using the system. There is only one place to enter all data. This allows for ease of use and minimizes data entry mistakes.
    • Every task is date stamped to insure proper work flow and holds the team accountable to each other.

    Cons
    Contactability
    • Call the toll-free customer service number and you are transferred to a blank voicemail, with an electronic repeat of the phone number.
    • The software training videos were confusing to non technical users.
    • We encountered bugs with the use of Windows 10. Some of the futures were bugged.

    FollowUp CRM
    • It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous phone #s with a note beside each one ("his cell#", "her work#", "do not call before 9a.m.", etc.).
    • It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous e-mail addresses ("hers", "his", "her email address at work", etc.).
    • It would be nice to have a separate general information box where we could put comments in that would show every time we bring up the account (such as "her nickname is Bobbi", "their dogs name is Fido, "their son is currently stationed in France", "husband is going through chemotherapy", etc.), which would help us to remember personal details that are important to our clients.

    Alternatives Considered
    Contactability
    Contactability does a pretty decent job as it is very user-friendly and puts us in contact with our prospective clients. What they could improve on that Insightly does well is training and support. This could be due to the size of the company or their prioritization of resources. Overall we enjoyed Contactability better than Insightly.

    My company had already implemented FollowUp Power CRM for Construction before I arrived. I have used other CRM programs in the past, and FollowUp Power is much more user friendly, and I have already seen a direct increase in my lead to customer conversion ratio as well as increased sales

    Return on Investment
    Contactability
    • We got our people to become more open minded in trying new software and exploring options for automation.
    • Users got discouraged when the software did not work as it was supposed to and customer service was not there too help.
    • Once used correctly, we did have a large increase in the number of new clients that our office handled.

    FollowUp CRM
    • I have seen a lot better tracking on my jobs when it comes to scheduling and staying on top of my jobs.
    • The dashboard is part of my daily routine it tells me exactly what I need to follow up on weather it is calling the customer or checking on the customer.
    • Payments or what the current status of the job is.
