Note: The CRM solutions listed above (with the exception of Goldmine which many advisors have used) have features specifically tailored for financial advisors, whether as stand-alone or integrated turnkey management in an advisor’s practice. A few solutions above are also overlays atop platforms like Salesforce and Microsoft. There are other “horizontal” solutions that offer basic contact management and CRM functionality for small businesses, like small advisory firms. These include (again in alphabetical order) Base, Batchbook, Capsule, Clevertim, Clinchpad, Contactually, Insightly, Highrise, Less Annoying, OnePageCRM, Pipeline Deals, Pipeliner, Podio, Nimble, Nutshell, Odoo, Sugar CRM, Streak, and Zoho CRM among many others.

If there’s one recommendation we’d make, it’s to kick the tires and test drive a CRM before making a purchasing decision that’s based simply on a feature checklist. We’ll write more about the “user experience” in software apps soon.

Hope this helps!
