Terence W
Owner
5.0

Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Terence. I'm the owner of Hello There Photography, and I would give Flowlu a five out of five. So before I was using Flowlu, I was using Excel to track all my client data. It worked fine for the most part, but the disadvantage of using Excel is that it does not keep a record of the changes I've made to client information, and it doesn't integrate invoices into my Excel documents. So that's why I started looking for another CRM, and Flowlu came into play. I actually tried Flowlu a couple years back and I did enjoy it, but I was also trying a bunch of other CRM systems at the time. So I actually switched over to another CRM software called Studio Ninja, which I tried for a little bit. But then, after COVID hit, it got quite expensive considering there wasn't much revenue coming in during COVID. So that's when I looked at Flowlu, and it had the option of a one-time purchase, which allowed me to spend more time exploring it and checking it out, and that's why I chose it and decided to stick with it. So starting with Flowlu was pretty straightforward. There were a few things, and I think with most CRM systems there's going to be a bit of a learning curve to figure things out. Overall though, I think Flowlu was pretty easy to set up for someone that doesn't really... I'm not very good with the online software. So yeah, it was relatively easy to figure out and sort out. And I know there's more that I'm not using. So if I took the time to research it and to figure it out, I think I could use it for more of its potential for my business. For someone that is looking to get a CRM system into the photography industry like I am in, I definitely highly recommend Flowlu just because for the price it does a great job with keeping track of your clients. There are still some limitations as of right now, as in I cannot generate and send contracts, but that is on the road map soon, and it's great that they have that organized together, and a lot of people can actually vote for what they want to see. So overall, I definitely recommend Flowlu.

Tyrone C
Engineering Change Officer
5.0

Tyrone: Hello, my name is Tyrone. I'm an engineering change officer. I gave Microsoft OneNote five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. I had issues with my team not having invisibility of what information was communicated between one another. So OneNote was the perfect platform to share that. The best feature I liked about Microsoft OneNote was the ability to share information between all my team members. The least thing I liked was the lack of features in the app. I would've preferred to have seen rulers, more color variety, better drawing capabilities for our users.
