Managing Contacts

With Insightly, you can keep all contacts in order and monitor important information about them, from background, email history and important dates, to any projects or events they are engaged in. There are three options of importing contacts: from a file import, Gmail address book, or you can get them to the system manually.

The Power of Links

What makes Insightly so great is its ability to link related items together. The link section is available for tasks, contacts, organizations, opportunities, projects, notes and emails. This allows you to move between the different records in your database easily, making them intuitively connected and just one click away.

Reporting Options

Insightly offers specific reports and analytic options that can be customized to your needs. It focuses mostly around sales opportunities, but it is capable of analyzing  completed and overdue activities as well. With Insightly CRM, you can easily see opportunity details such as:

  • responsible user
  • pipeline
  • pipeline stage
  • close date
  • probability of winning
  • value

Share helpful graphs and reporting with your team and analyze your business from any side you need.

Tasks and Calendar Set Up

Insightly gives you an opportunity to stay organized by managing tasks and events effectively. Structuralize your work by categorizing tasks with email, follow up, phone call, user, and status. Stay responsible and track all your assignments by due date with email reminders without even logging into the system.

Workflow automation

There are two ways to automate work with Insightly by using activity sets or pipelines. The first option is a template for tasks, which can then all be applied to a Contact, Organization, Opportunity or Project at once. Pipeline, on the other hand, is a set of several stages that can be defined for both projects and opportunities. Check out a quick video for more instructions:
