Overall Satisfaction with Daylite
Daylite is used by the project management, billing and sales departments. We use Daylite to track and monitor client accounts, communications, sale opportunities and overall contact information. Daylite addresses the problem of organizing client information and communications when there are several people who need to contact clients and coordinate their communications with other teams. Daylite helps us keep track of emails sent between the client. It is also our "contact book" that has all the clients contact info and any special notes that would be helpful for other team members to know. Daylite also helps us track sales opportunities and what packages and services different clients have ben sold on or if they aren't interested in something we've already talked to them about. Overall, Daylite keeps us organized as a team!
- 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.
- Daylite has saved us hours of back and forth between teams because you can refer to a client account in Daylite and see al the most recent notes and emails.
- One of our business objectives to be friends with our clients and Daylite helps us accomplish this because we can leave notes on an account with helpful info we have learned about a client and it helps the clients feel how we all know and care about them because we remember things they've told us!
- Daylite helps us track our sales so we don't bug people over and over and so we can customize quotes for clients. This has helped us keep track of things and in teh end make more sales!
