Apptivo

If you need a CRM system to help manage projects, this is a great option. Some of the other apps we didn't use such as accounting, etc. Because we only needed a basic system, we chose Apptivo. Also, because the price was right. Also if you need immediate support, Apptivo is great! If it's complicated though, it did get a bit challenging.

• Allows for various address lists to make sure contacts are in the correct category.
• Can assign contacts to different leads.
• Allows you to add notes and personal information for each contact.

• Homescreen claims to be the center of the application however the sub sections are mostly flawed or do not function as one would expect.
• The built in email client kinda works but depending on which section of the app you are in the default font will be different from your signature. Also you cannot add a cell phone to staff signatures. I asked about this for months. It was never fixed. When will CRM companies learn that email is STILL the center of many business. It is unacceptable to have different fonts in the same mail and signatures that change from client to client.
• They frequently messed up our contact data.
• Multi currency exists on invoices but not on other apps.
• Fragmentation with their apps....some apps are still on version 3 some on 4 and some on version 5. This means you are forced to deal with 2 or more different user interfaces within the same app.
• No consistency between the apps.
• Often there is little or no integration between the apps inside Apptivo.

Without a doubt, the best thing about Apptivo is that it has become a perfect internal and external communication platform. This platform will allow you to know who is taking care of certain tasks with clients and control all projects with your clients. With very affordable plans for your pocket, it has a free version for up to 3 users. It far surpasses quite a few CRMs in the same category. Apptivo CRM allows you to customize many details and work with it does not consume time or resources. You are faced with a very comfortable software to use, simple and well designed.

Apptivo is always quick to respond whenever we have had a problem over out time of using the program. The customer service reps are always very polite and professional in their responses and are very knowledgeable! I have never gone to them with a problem that they don't do everything in their power to help solve, and most times they have (abbreviating states is the only issue we weren't able to solve).

If you are starting a business and want a free app or nearly free app that can grow with you....then apptivo could be for you. However if you grow faster than them then you will be quickly seeking alternatives

Although Constant Contact, Robly, and Mailchimp are more email based, they deal with contacts in a similar manner. Apptivo has more options for things like adding time limits to subscription, assigning leads to certain contacts, etc. Also, exporting addresses is a lot easier which comes in great handy for mailings and for CASS certifying the addresses
