Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review If you are using Office365 and it is within your budget, utilizing SmartCloud Connect as an interface with a CRM is a no-brainer. It remains hidden when Outlook opens, but with an email selected you can open it with a single click. It then allows you to associate the email and even attachments with email addresses that were included in the to, cc, or from sections of the email. It's a very intuitive user interface and saves time in email tracking.
Read full review Pros Customization - we are able to make Nutshell make the most sense for our company and processes Scheduling - the ability to set tasks allows us to never forget a follow-up call or email 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 Read full review Integration with SF Logging call Creating new task and events Read full review Cons SWOT analysis --- currently we put this in as custom fields but they don't link up at all and are hard to read/navigate. We also use the custom fields for other information we want to capture. It would be nice to build those in so they can show the info as bullet points or something --- currently paragraph form and hard to find things at a glance. Funnel could use some work. Only shows how many leads are currently in that part of the pipeline which doesn't give us a good historical comparison. Read full review Sometimes my plugin gets disconnected from my Gmail. This needs to be fixed. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.

Read full review Support Rating 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.

Read full review Alternatives Considered Well, my team had trials for these others and they all prefer Nutshell for different reasons. I prefer it as I need a user-friendly software to help me out as I am not a big tech guy. I have heard others in the office say things like they like the way activities are scheduled better, or the way nothing ever gets accidentally erased if they hard crash or power goes out.
Read full review Out of all the other utilities we've used, SmartCloud connect seems to be the most stable. The other interfaces sometimes caused glitchy integrations with Outlook, requiring a user to restart the add-in to restore functionality, but so far that has not been the case with SmartCloud Connect. SmartCloud connect also allows you to connect to different CRM's instead of just one, which means you can still use it when migrating between CRM's.
Read full review Return on Investment Nutshell's mobility has provided significant ROI for me since we've started using the CRM. I've been able to provide immediate feedback to clients, schedule meetings from the field with confidence, and much more. Nutshell's tagging features have helped us craft custom mailing/email lists. We struggled to do this in the past. Read full review It has just made me more proficient. Read full review ScreenShots
