    This can be used for different industries, healthcare, IT, retail or any company with a customer service line, big or small. if i had to ask, i would say "Do you have any type of filing system that you use?" "anything where you are keeping track of personal/ business information." Do you need access to information on a day to day basis? If they do , then this can be used , especially if you need to keep track of the numbers; we like how we can see if are things going up or down.

    • Customization - we are able to make Nutshell make the most sense for our company and processes

    • Tags - allow us to prioritize leads and segment our customers and potential customers
    • Communication - the ability to tag colleagues in notes for callbacks or updates to accounts is very helpful to keep everyone on the same page
    • Email History - being able to blind copy all our email communication to Nutshell, allows us to have email threads and notes all in one place

    • integration with email doesn't work as advertised
    • would like integration with quickbooks
    • If there is a misspelling in any one email address, you can not send a mass email. You must go back and correct each error before it can send.

    This is perfect for a small business / Home based business with SaaS. Nutshell constantly adds new features and the price is much better than more robust software like Salesforce.

    Usability
    Yext
    If you wish to reduce stress of managing multiple social media handles from a single place, you can use Hearsay Social. Hearsay Social helps you analyze, automate, schedule posts and even give ideas for posts. Rather than multitasking, one would obliviously choose a single place to track your posts. It also fares greatly as compared to its competitors. It has a great interface. Very easy and simple to use.

    Extremely easy to use and they help you throughout the process. I find it not challenging, an effective utility to help us prioritize and engage efficiently at a reasonable price point. We enjoy working with the team there and they're easy to access. I've already recommended it to two colleagues

    Nutshell's support team has always been great and they tend to go above and beyond. They are polite, friendly, personable and great listeners. They are also great about sending follow up emails too.

    Facebook Business Manager is also good however it has some limitations like it's very difficult to remove an ad account, we cannot schedule shared posts and the user interface is a bit complicated and not user-friendly. I like the user interface of Hearsay Social. I find it very simple and easy to use. Also, it has all the features that you might require in Social Media Management tool.

    When I first started with BCI, they were using ACT!. It was hard to navigate and there were a lot of spots for duplicate information that made it hard to know if you were in the right spot or not. Then if you had trouble, you would spend 3 hours on the phone with customer service and often they would not even be able to find a solution. I would not recommend ACT! to anyone. Since getting nutshell, I have learned a bit about Cosential and I know that it is more catered to the construction industry and can help with proposal creation, so I think that may be something we consider in the not-too-near future.

    • Nutshell CRM has had a major impact on ROI. The last program we used cost more and had fewer features and accessibility.
    • One negative impact is its email functions. As stated before in this review I need to be able to send large attachments and pics through email and Nutshell is very limited when it comes to that.
