Contactually app good for
I hunt around the App Store frequently- searching for the best organizational tool as a sales rep...well, folks- Ive finally found it. Thank you for finally ending my App Store search!
Not only will Contactually now import all your Address Book contacts seamlessly, but if you connect your Contacts app to Facebook and LinkedIn, you get all that contact data as well! Now I have even more of my contact in the one place I need it most!
Really like the update, I dont know what I would do without Contactually
Really helpful to have Contactually reminding me to review my Dashboard each morning. It’s great knowing where to focus my time for the day.
Really like the daily notification. It makes planning my day easier.
Contactually keeps moving this app forward, now adding push notifications and support for landscape mode - crucial for us iPad users. Im excited to see whats next!
Some bad moments
There is a myriad amount of bugs with the website and the app. The issues seriously affect work flow. The app should include a pipeline too. I couldnt even use the new updated app for 2016 for 2 months... I asked support for help, but they said it was my phones fault. The app still shuts down whenever I scroll through the tasks or create tasks. Im currently looking into other CRMs because Im always on the go and not in the office so a phone app is essential. I can live with the bugs on the desktop, but not on the app.
Ive tried several times to fall in love with this tool but we end up just "being friends". The idea is great and anything that helps you stay in the forefront of a customers mind is awesome.
The bucket process is a bit clunky but that was okay until the app just stared crashing, slowing down or just failing. However this never version released yesterday the developers have fixed this.
The crashes are much faster and the failures more consistent. Many times the app just fails to open at. Kudos team, if youre going to crash .. Do it early, do it simple and with minimal user interaction thats what sets them apart now.
I would have given this app at least 4 stars before the most recent update. However, when I updated a few days ago it broke and now wont open at all. It just keeps crashing after the initial logo screen. I need this app to work, so please fix it!! Ive tried deleting it and reinstalling it many times and restarting my phone, nothing worked. I have an iPhone 5s with iOS 8.
When this first launched it was a great tool. Contactually pulled in updates from social media sites, but that no longer happens. Support has diminished. Expensive solution for what they offer. Would not recommend.
The app crashes on the Contactually launch screen with iOS 10, rendering it completely useless. I assume it will get updated eventually, but as Contactuallys developers had months of notice to prepare and test for iOS 10, Im not optimistic for a quick turnaround and not thrilled to pay to not be able to access and update my contacts on the go with Contactually.
Not only is the app overpriced...so is the service. You have to sign up on the website to use the app.
