We integrate our risk analysis software directly with Redtail. I am in charge of supporting the integration with various CRMs, including Redtail, so I use my account to troubleshoot and demo to other Redtail and Riskalyze users. It helps us to get better visibility into the user experience of the financial advisors we service.
  • Organize Client information: its layout is intuitive and user-friendly.
  • Integrates seamlessly with other software that enhances productivity.
  • Powerful analytics allow deeper insight into the strengths and weaknesses of your business.
  • The aesthetics of the page could use a facelift. The grey-on-white serves as a subtle clue that I should not be having fun.
  • The workflow for searching for clients could be improved/made easier.
  • The integrations management page could certainly be easier to find in my opinion. It is in an unusual spot nestled beneath my name, rather than another location.
When it comes to managing clients and leads, Redtail is tough to beat. It provides a depth of information and insight into the clients that I would often have not even though to collect. It makes organizing leads and following up a breeze. A situation where it might be less applicable may be if you were trying to track individual customers for unique one-off items, like antiques, where having client information may or may not prove useful in the future. Even then it would still be worth the effort I suppose.
  • It has served our business in numerous ways, particularly in furthering our integration objectives.
  • It allows our support team to add value to our business by better understanding the functions of our integration partners.
  • It is basically the best part of what I do.
Quite honestly, I have visibility into a number of CRM systems and Redtail stands alone as the strongest contender. It has the most thorough and customizable interface of any I have encountered. There are few other tools that offer the unmatched flexibility and the depth that any business could stand to profit from.

We primarily use Redtail to help our customers with their client services and compliance. Alongside Redtail we've been able to easily document all client interactions and information in one place for advisors and the information is in one place for advisors.

Redtail helps our clients keep track of the information that they obtain from the tools and services that we provide. The integration capabilities that Redtail offers are amazing!
  • Redtail integrates with other vendors. This is game changing for many users and super helpful for hosting information in one single location. Redtail is the hub for all information about your clients and potential business!
  • Redtail has the ability to have custodians feed over client positions. This is cool, but even cooler that Redtail can feed over to other programs to analyze the investments (riskalyze).
  • Redtail has a stellar support team that responds in a timely manner. The team at Redtail is top notch and I'm excited to see where they go from here!
  • Redtail and LPL's client works don't have the ability to pull over the individual holdings. This is a bummer, as Branch Net does. Only thing is that Branch Net won't be around for much longer. At least that's what I hear...
  • It's probably my fault, but I seem to create a lot of duplicates in the product. It would be awesome if there was some automated way for Redtail to notice when I've started to create duplicate client profiles.
Redtail is well suited for keeping track of all things client related. If you're worried about compliance, log it in Redtail. Get rid of your file cabinet, whiteboard and whatever dinosaur legal pads you still have laying around. If you want to make sure you're doing things right, take notes in Redtail. Create tasks there too!

Redtail is really a one stop shop for prospecting and maintaining client relationships. I've seen Redtail work for so many people at this point, it's superb.
  • Redtail makes it easy to log customer interactions for compliance related fields.
  • With Redtail, you don't have to worry about losing information. Just pull up the customer's profile and make some notes on what is going on. You can never be too detailed in the advisor industry.
  • The integration ability at Redtail really saves us heaps of time. You can feed information over from the custodian straight over to another 3rd party. API is game changing!
Redtail is intuitive! I love how Redtail tends to be geared specifically towards financial advisors. There are some great CRMs out there, but nothing that takes care of a niche group like Redtail does. Redtail is built to make advisors successful and comply with FINRA. If you haven't considered Redtail yet, you might find that you're missing out on a simple and clean way to manage your client relationships!

I have worked in the financial technology industry for about 3 years, and I can honestly tell you that there are few tools better engineered, easier to use, and with more integrations than Redtail CRM. It can be used for most day to day CRM things like tracking investors and leads, but more importantly, they link with a ton of custodians and other software to display the high-level information that you might want to know about a client.
  • Client Profiles are amazing. I never realized how much time I wasted on hunting down context on clients.
  • Integrations with custodians, risk assessment software, retirement planning software. Everything you need is centralized here.
  • Fantastic customer service.
  • Would like to see more features for the LPL integrations.
  • A little buggy, but I'm knit picking here... no pun intended. As a cloud-based software, it is much more solid than alternative CRMs or other industry software. Not to mention the proprietary tools that are available to certain BDs (cough cough, they're all awful).
  • Ummm... maybe adding a little more flare to the pages... But again, knit pick. They can seem a little bland and boxy.
Truly, the only scenario I could see Redtail CRM not being the best option is for teams of 50 or more (not a specific number). For all the things that Redtail does well for an advisor, you may feel the limitations if you are a corporation that needs to track things outside of the advisory world. That being said, you could probably still make it work, but you are less in the target demo for the design team at that point.

That being said, Redtail CRM is fantastic easy to use, super friendly, and way ahead of any competitors. I would suggest you set up a call with them or stop at their booth at a convention, they will tell you if they can't meet your needs.
  • Track all relationships and status of leads.
  • Track relationships for current clients and how they are invested.
  • Have a quick, easy to read view of all your systems in one place (priceless).
  • Unified admin team.
  • Pays for itself. Integrate it into your daily routine.
First off. I have a love-hate relationship with Salesforce. It's a jack of all trades, master of none. That being said, maybe you run a bigger company and need different reports for different departments... It may make sense. To be 100% honest, I rejoice every day that I am free of it.

WealthBox is another great option. The biggest issue is that it does not integrate with our risk assessment software and our retirement analyzer.

There are a few other general CRMs like Zoho or Microsoft options, which are fine, but light on features.
