User Testimonials
	Nimble	Shared Contacts for Gmail
Likelihood to Recommend	[Nimble] has been the best platform for us to manage contacts and information from the contacts. Great dashboard, fast UI, and complete package with all features helping us a lot. I would definitely recommend this software to other businesses to have this in their ecosystem to be more productive. Incentivized Margaret turner Business Development Manager Read full review	When working with several people at the same time, being able to access the full directory [with Shared Contracts for Gmail] makes things 100% easier. Provides a faster look at the company wide directory and grants access to contact whoever is needed. Now if its a company like mine; merged between two, sometimes it becomes a little complicated, due to the fact that it doesn't recognize some email domains (outlook based) and can cause problems sometimes when sending emails (you get an undeliverable email response, and sometimes the emails do get send and other they don't). And they won't pop-out as easy as a recommendation. First you would get the gmail based email and then the 'outsider' email. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Nimble is the CRM solution used to strengthen business relationships with our frequent and potential customers. We like that it allows us to follow up with our customers. Its integration with email tools, social networks, and other programs allows me to keep in touch with customers and prospects. Incentivized MP Maria Pulenta Client Account Executive Read full review	It has helped us save a considerable time. A simple way to share your connection with other Gmail users. It provided us with a centralized contact list that anyone could use instantaneously. The ability to share connections encourage you to have everyone's contact information at your fingertips without having to look them up. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	I dont like the functionality aspect of how one of the controllers is always on standby, they dont load balance, meaning you can be on the same controller for the life of the appliance The 4.x firmware was pretty buggy and it gave off a lot of temp alarms Incentivized Michael Haberkern Network Engineer Supervisor Read full review	I have been looking for a way to share our contacts within our organization for a while now. This process really improves how we were doing it within Google Sheets. My only negative is that it has taken so long for it to be functional within Google. Incentivized TC Tiffany Consalvo Practice Administrator Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	It's truly a great system if you get it for the right reasons. Don't expect it to do everything a mid market organization would require but for any small business or mid to large organizations which would like to integrate to it for the social insights capabilities this is a leading solution which can add value immediately Chad Stewart VP of Sales and Marketing Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	The platform has more advantages and positives as compared to challenges or negatives in comparison to other comparable products and platforms available in the marketplace. It was extremely easy to get started with the initial deployment which makes the choice much clearer. Finally its tight integration not just with Microsoft O365 suite, but also with [the] most popular social media platforms available makes it a very favorable platform in its domain. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Support Rating	Nimble customer service is enjoyable. With great patience, they work tirelessly to help their customers. It was highly beneficial to employees to have access to remote support sessions. We decided to get in touch with them to learn more about any previously mentioned features. Because of this, Nimble has a strong foundation. I think it's a fantastic option. Aononna Tazin Software Specialist Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	I cannot regard Salesforce as a perfect tool for CRM. I found Salesforce lacks many important features that we were looking for. Moreover, [the] email marketing feature of Salesforce wasn’t working well and I didn’t like that feature. But on the other side, the email marketing feature of Nimble works excellently and Nimble is a complete package for CRM. Incentivized LG Leo George Relationship Manager Read full review	Shared Contacts for Gmail is amazing to use when you need a lot of contact information on the go. If there's a medium level organization that needs a contact network that is easily accessible for remote work. I wouldn't recommend this for organizations whos works are based on leads and immediate revenue. Incentivized AM Angie Mondragon Talent Manager Read full review
Return on Investment	As the investment made with nimble is only 15 dollars per month, it is easy to return it and double profits in a short time, but this is totally relative to the number of people that are working on the platform account. Based on the above, it is easy to deduce that nimble is a little better suited to small businesses that require a smaller number of sellers, since it does not ensure that all sellers can cover their quota. Incentivized Maria Wiley Master of Busines Administration Read full review	Ease of contacts syncing across various device types helped minimize the tech support calls into our helpdesk Easy to use/self-help tutorials helped minimize the need to train end users Helped standardize the platform for the targeted business units Verified User Anonymous Read full review
