The Social Media integration and the Quick ease of getting contacts into the system and quickly sizing them up (knowing all their relationships) are excellent. This tool is great if you are just starting (alternative to ACT!, Goldmine, Outlook CRM Manager). In fact, as mentioned it–s awesome for providing insights in the social area which can even add to CRM tools like Salesforce.com, Sugar, or SalesLogix CRM which are lacking in this area. And, with API–s can be integrated into the tool, it–s great for real estate, financial service, or other professional contact driven sales relationships. It is also excellent for Fundraising Development Officers hoping to gain insights into their Donors!
Nimble allows me to naturally evolve addresses into contacts, contacts into prospects and prospects into clients. The systems gives me the possibility not only to “manage” my contacts but to nurture relationships by adding the right value. By following the signals (this is how Nimble calls activities on social networks) of my audience I am able to comment or add exactly the values others are looking for.
There–s two features that I really like Nimble for, in addition to the standard CRM features — the follow-up triggers, which are rather in line with the Never Eat Alone (Keith Ferrazzi) book I read in 2010, but also the social data remediation. Most CRMs are missing that piece. Also, the contact object layout is probably my favorite, of all of the CRMs that I–ve used.
Instant populating of your CRM from email and social sites; syncs calendar with Google calendar; customizable fields for your sales process to track deals; daily aggregation of messages from all of your social sites; VERY limited data entry required (essential for your sales team–s buy-in!). It automatically appends all of your emails and other interactions with anyone in your deal flow. Nimble is an intelligent relationship management platform created to help professionals build better relationships in a noisy, multi-channel world. Nimble provides a smart and easy way to track, engage and nurture relationships by automatically unifying important contact information, online conversations and social media profiles of valuable connections in one location, making it easier to organize and act on digital communication.
