Product Details

What is Daylite?

Daylite is a CRM and business productivity app that helps small businesses build stronger client relationships and close deals, then deliver on their commitments efficiently which increases revenue. Unlike classic CRMs that are built for “the boss” to report on sales with fancy charts, Daylite is designed to support day-to-day work, not create it. Unlike most CRMs that are web-based, Daylite is a real macOS and iOS app that works seamlessly with many of the built-in Apple apps, and all the Apple devices, you know and love! Plus, in keeping with the elegance and power of leading Apple apps, Daylite doesn't need a fleet of admins to run it. Normal teams can do great things with their businesses in Daylite.

Daylite helps small business worried about client communication, details, or follow-ups slipping through the cracks, not knowing how many deals are in the pipeline and what needs to be done next to close the deal, and not having visibility on what’s been done or what needs to be done next on projects. Users of Daylite have been able to manage more clients, close more deals, finish more projects, and grow more efficiently!

  • Multi-Factor Authentication is needed as soon as possible.

  • Daylite allows you to link your email so when you email a client it will link to their contact in Daylite and save the communication so anyone on the team can see all the emails that have been sent between the client and our company.
  • Daylite allows you to create "opportunities" for the different packages and services we offer. This lets us track where someone is in the process, if they are still thinking about a service, have been sold on it, or are not interested.
  • Daylite lets you leave notes on the account that everyone on the team can see. This has been so helpful for our company because it lets us drop helpful notes on personal things about the client that would be good for everyone to know.
  • Daylite doesn't let you connect to every email option. Last time we checked it wouldn't let us integrate with G-mail (which is widely used), so we have to use the Apple mail through G-mail so we can link Daylite to our emails. It's not a big deal, but could be improved.
  • Daylite has templated fields for adding contact information, while it gives you a lot of options, it doesn't let you edit all of the field choices. So if you want to have a field with a specific date, you can't change the name of the field to say "start date" it will just be "date" or whatever it is preset to.
  • The lists and smart lists that Daylite lets you create are not as intuitive as they seem. They have been difficult to set up and edit and it's made it hard to create lists with specific clients that anyone can edit, it only lest the person that create it edit it.

  • Its interface is quite modern and easy to use.
  • Another feature that stands out [about] Daylite is its integration with other Apple services. It integrates with mail, Apple contacts, calendar, Siri, and notes which collectively creates a friendly environment to access any information on the platform easily.
  • The dashboard is pretty much simple and helpful as the user does not need a high level of knowledge to navigate things on the platform.
  • Customer support is professional.
  • The main drawback of Daylite is that it becomes slow on its iOS mobile devices.
  • Sometimes I face a lot of retries to log into the account. The mobile app needs a change and needs an upgrade. Apps are lacking in giving appointment reminders on time. Sometimes it does not notify on the right time about the appointment with the client.

  • It has made permissible integration with the apple.
  • It has multiple features and works efficiently well.
  • Its document management is good and allows the editing of the document as well as publishing.
  • It is excellent in keeping the information of our clients safe and it is easy to get it back when needed that’s why I highly adore its contact management.
  • Its scheduling feature needs to be fixed as it fails in alerting us.
  • Data migrations are miserable.
  • Its price is quite unfair and unjust.

  • Daylite is the part of our work for a very long time and it still has a lot of significance in managing the customer effectively.
  • It has been a great find for us over the years as it is solving all the problems related to customers very efficiently.
  • The biggest feature that stands out is the app interface. Clear and intuitive in nature. Easy to use, perfectly designed to work on easily.
  • Its price is reasonable and provides efficient support.
  • The appointment reminder of Daylite is not much responsive. Sometimes it misses the dates and doesn’t give the reminder of a particular task.
  • Secondly, the mobile app on iPhone is not up to mark. It becomes slow while dealing with large files and tasks. Need a lot of updates to be helpful more. Exporting features needs a lot of attention as the system becomes slow while exporting files.
  • Daylite must have more integration with apple mail to select multiple emails at the moment easily.

  • It has all the features to easily track the project, attach emails and maintain a good workflow.
  • I have been using this platform for a very long time in my organization for managing business processes.
  • It helps me in managing the project, track the overall progress of the project, create and perform practically with the adding remainder of each and every task.
  • The main drawback of Daylite that I have been facing for a long time while using this platform that it becomes very slow while using on IOs devices.
  • I have to log in every time after some time of inactivity which takes a lot of retries to log into the platform.
  • Secondly, the most usable features also have the bid flaw which is that the appointment reminders sometimes do not notify on the time, it does not notify about the meeting with the client which results in losing the client.

  • Now I can easily process my emails, I can store them even I can pin them and make a sticky note so that whenever I have a meeting I can better assist the client.
  • This tool provides me numerous integrations to associate with Mac.
  • It is very easy to customize as I have customized the notification and alerts.
  • Its economic plans lack a few important features due to which small organizations cannot afford it.
  • Another difficulty is that it is found to be difficult in installing.
  • It cannot be configured easily like other products. Its limited integration is found to be problematic.

  • Allows for robust customization to meet the specific information needs of my company
  • Acts as a hub for daily activities and tasks
  • The mobile apps are not as nearly robust as the desktop version
  • UI could stand to be less clinical and a bit more visually pleasing
  • Ability to integrate with other apps more easily

  • Calendar : much more powerful than the basic Apple Calendar, it allows to schedule all kind of meetings, repeated or not, and to link them with contacts, categories or documents. The sync with mobile apps, both on iPhone and iPad, is perfect.
  • Contacts : a vital part of the software, as I manage contacts in many categories, and can with Daylite both have them I select only on my iPhone, but have multiple search criteria which are very helpful for my emailing list management for example.
  • Tasks : as an independent musician, producer and manager, I have a huge number of tasks to organize and coordinate. This is vital for my activity, and I save a lot of time with Daylite, as everything is with it simple and effective in order to create tasks, link and follow them.
  • I still do not use the Project part as much as I could do, even if I tried several times. I think some improvements could be done with the interface, in order to make it more intuitive.
  • The software is intented to be used with a US/Canada logic. It would be nice to be able to organize fields in the contacts in a different way, more logical to the different countries it is used in. Each country puts zip codes in different place for example.
  • It would also be nice to have the possibility to assign a contact to several categories, and to create sub-categories.

  • Emails can be attached to projects and tasks, helping the user gain background knowledge
  • Reports can be produced and printed to be used in Progress Meetings
  • Other data such as passwords can be added as Notes to a project
  • Project deadlines can be moved easily in Calendar
  • We're using Daylite 5 and are soon abandoning it because: a. Daylite 5 is not cloud-based (6, is)
  • b. Daylite is for Mac users only, and we need a solution for our whole team
  • c. There are many "rabbit holes" that you can go down in submenus that it can be confusing
