With AI, we should now be able to at least suggest companies for new contacts based on email addresses etc.. > > It's still a very useful tool which I use daily, it does what it set's out to do in a pretty easy to use way, although sometimes the UI is a bit strange. ----- ### "Capsule is simple to use and just the right number of features" — 5.0/5 > **Jesse** | *16 December 2021* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As a service provider I have a lot of contacts to track. I tried several CRMs (Hubspot, Monday, etc) but none were as simple to use as Capsule. I had basic needs: track new contacts and set reminders to follow up. While other apps had those features alongside dozens of other tools, Capsule made it very easy to start tracking and reminding right away. And that's on a free level\! The Gmail extension works really well and makes adding tasks quick and easy. > > **Cons**: If I was nitpicky, I'd say maybe a more modern design. But it's not strictly utilitarian, and it's simplicity makes it easy to do what I need. > > I've been using Capsule for several months and I am very happy. Occasionally I try other apps just to see, but none of them are as easy to use. Capsule feels like a gem of a CRM in a field crowded with lots of apps. If you need reminders of who to follow up with and when, Capsule does that really well—and can grow with you as you grow. Next year I'll likely need to upgrade from the free level, and I'll gladly do so. ----- ### "Features and Format Lacking, Good for the Basics" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *7 September 2018* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to export to Mailchimp has been very useful, it allows us to immediately update lists without having to go through multiple extra steps. > > **Cons**: Certain features I'm used to in a CRM are missing. The only way to correlate multiple organizations (as a subsidiary or similar case) is to make a note of it in the organization description and that doesn't link through. You're also unable to categorize a contact under multiple organizations, so you need to create a new person with the same name if you want to put them under more than one company. It would also be nice to have a better search and reporting function. The only things you can search for are the person, organization, case, and note content, so every other bit of information you'd like to search for and compile must be placed as a tag, which gets clunky and disorganized easily. There is some sales pipeline reporting, but the options are not as robust as other CRM systems I've used in the past. > > Overall, Capsule seems middle-of-the-road. It's been useful as a database to keep our pipeline and outreach organized at a base level but hasn't impressed beyond that. ----- ### "Day \#1 of the evaluation" — 4.0/5 > **Ben** | *13 September 2023* | Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: DAY \#1 - yes, I know, I know its early days but after using a high-powered corporate CRM for 20 years I find Capsules underlying principles of operations intuitive , and easy to understand. I accept there is much to do to get me back up and running in my small business but I'm really confident after my painful transition from a large US corporate CRM that it wont be as painless and frustrating. Also let me highlight an outstanding feature of Capsule. Hardware, software, R\&D catchup, and leapfrog etc is the nature of the industry. But what my intuition tells me after a long time in the game what will set this company apart (and I've seen many over the years: good and abysmal) is the quality and calibre of the support. The support team wants me to succeed\! :) and that gives me a lot of energy. I have spent 40 years in the IT game and to get a support response from halfway round the world in 4 hrs gives me great confidence. I will report back again year\! > > **Cons**: I will report back in the next 6 months to give an update. ----- ### "Easy to use, keeps my lead tracking process organised" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *14 February 2023* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love that it's easy to use, keeps my lead tracking process organised. No complicated features. I set reminders and track everyone I have contacted. I can access all features really easily and it just makes my sales and marketing manageable - without additional functions I won't use or need. > > **Cons**: When I import a CSV file - I need to format it slightly for it to identify all the columns - just an extra step which is a bit of a pain but not a biggy. > > It's positive - solves a problem, makes my life easier so it's a thumbs up from me. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/27508/capsule?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/27508/capsule) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
