“Ease of Use" tops the recent Ackert Advisory Group CRM Survey….According to an independent survey of 175 law firms conducted by The Ackert Advisory Group about CRM use in law firms, the findings revealed - “At your firm, if you value ease of use, according to this survey you’re more likely to get that through ContactEase.”
David Ackert, President, The Ackert Advisory
ContactEase has been a great tool for our firm. As we maintain the information in the database, we are able to efficiently run reports for different categories and scenarios. One of our primary uses for ContactEase is for direct mail campaigns. It’s really simple to create an assignment and assign contacts to them. We are then able to pull a specific list of contacts and easily export them to an excel spreadsheet. There is even an option to track when mail has been returned or a contact has requested not to receive mail. ContactEase allows you to choose what headings you would like to see on your report, you can make it as simple or complex as you’d like. This database has helped the marketing department keep a clean list of qualified prospects and referral sources, which is critical to obtaining an ROI. Our niches are growing at a steady rate and our President knows that is partly due to our marketing campaigns.”

“My search for a CRM started with testing over 20 different systems. After weeding through all the big names and even bigger promises the front runner was clear, ContactEase. ContactEase was built with accountants in mind. It is tailored to our profession in a way that no other CRM can match. From connecting referral sources to event tracking and promotion, ContactEase understands our unique industry.”

“Many firms find it difficult to track ROI using CRM but we recently used the category search in ContactEase to pull a list of our referral sources for an upcoming event. We uploaded the list, sent an email invitation using CE E-mail Campaign and not only had a much higher attendance at the event, but we were top of mind to one of the referral sources and we received a project for $12,000.”
