Goldmine here... I say use... it's on, but no-one seems to have much interest in
it. Our MD was quite vociferous in getting the one package standardised accross
the group, but the sales & marketing people have refused to use it, so
no-one else bothers now. It's not a bad system, it seems quite powerful, but
then we don't have 70,000 customers. We've found that a shared address book in
exchange/outlook serves our purpose.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

all</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=010080514-02082003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Does
anyone use, or have experience of, a contact management package? Any
recommendations? I've a (potential) client who uses ACT! but, with around 70,000
customers, finds it very slow. Looking to change. Any one know Goldmine or
MS's CRM? Or know another good one?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
