### "Daylite is ok"

March 26, 2018

4.0

Pros

Daylite has a lot of functionality. I like how it keeps a timeline/paper trail of interaction with contacts. I also like that it keeps important dates such as birthdays and anniversaires on the calendar.

Cons

I really dislike how hard it is to disconnect the Daylite Assistant from MacMail. It slows down my computer on startup sometimes and I cant figure out how to remove it.

### "Daylite "

January 29, 2020

5.0

Pros

Daylite is user friendly with many customizable functions which suit our business well. The task system keeps us on track and nothing gets lost in the shuffle. We also are utilizing the activity sets to create systems and projects for workflow. Daylite will enable a new untrained employee to enter into our business and take care of our clients easily Some much information is captured and stored in a sensible manner, it creates a continuum of customer service.

Cons

At times, there are too many reminder boxes popping up on screen. It would be beneficial if we could like directly to the companies with who we do business, rather than logging on another screen.

### "It has been a great system to keep track of many opportunities between multiple people."

March 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that you can chose what email gets linked to what. It does not chose for you. It has also been helpful to look back on history of contacts for deals that happen every year.

Cons

I wish automation was a bit easier to do. It seems difficult to get things to happen automatically but we continue to learn new things about the pipeline and tasks.

### "Excellent workload management tool"

September 30, 2019

4.0

Daylite has contributed to the growth of our agency, allowing us to scale our systems, increase workload and manage execution with consistent quality and reliability. It's been essential to our success.

Pros

Daylite is a powerful piece of off-the-shelf software that helps us book and schedule projects, track new business opportunities, and manage workflow effortlessly in real-time, with full visibility for all team members.

Cons

Daylite didn't have the resource planning capabilities we needed, so we had to adopt a separate tool for that purpose.

### "Daylite is...ok."

February 16, 2021

3.0

For a Mac user it can be a decent option, depending on your needs.

Pros

Daylite is the fundamentally 'ok'. It's run of the mill, super standard CRM system with no real competitive edge or something it excels at over others. It does things alright though.

Cons

Quite a few things are clunky, or an option can be missing. Expect the epitome of mediocracy, and you will not be disappointed.

### "Essential"

May 9, 2020

5.0

I used the software for over 5 years and I recently came back to it having started a company with a partner. It is perfect to centralize the information and keep everything transparence.

Pros

This software is like an assistant to me. Once out of my head, I know the information will come back at the right time reminding me what I have to do.

Cons

The app has a lot if limitation. The mail assistant is great, but complicated for answers on the go via the Iphone.

Reason for choosing Daylite for Mac

I have used it in the past. I loved the customer service. I always got answers to my questions or problems.

### "Daylite is simply an amazing tool, even for unintended uses"

February 22, 2019

5.0

I am using Daylite to manage software development projects with tasks and communications which are mostly not sales related. The flexibility and ease of configuration make it an ideal tool, even for this unintended use. I went from an inbox with 250+ red flagged e-mail notifications for various project issues, diagnostic reports and inquiries, to zero in less than half a day. Now the mess of flagged e-mails is categorized, assigned to project and tasks with priorities and keywords. The best part is that it only takes a few seconds to do the same for any new e-mail which allows me to keep my inbox clear without interrupting what I am doing or loosing track of important communications in a sea of less relevant information.

Pros

Daylite is a superb application which should be used as an example to developers on how to create a complex applications which are user friendly and easy to use without being dumbed down for power users. Excellent integration with Apple mail makes processing incoming e-mails into Daylite take only a few seconds.

Cons

Due to its incredibly full feature set it creates an impression that it is complex to configure for specific use which is not at all the case.

### "It helps me greatly in organizing emails of the individual clients, and having a good overview!"

November 22, 2017

4.0

Pros

Fairly organized layout of client file, easy to add important client data. Although the choices for reminders, or tasks are almost overwhelming. Although make an easy email reminder pop up box to follow up an email, in a day, two days, next week, etc! That would help greatly.

Cons

I don't like that the templates are hidden in the preference folder, put them in the side bar, I like to use them a lot for my mail merge. Too many steps to get to these files. The Geo information looks interesting, but how do I use this information? Is their a way to pinpoint Clients in an area on a map?

January 11, 2018

4.0

Pros

Ease of Use! We don't have to train new employees how to work with it! Super stable and it's very easy to maintain your own Daylite server. The compatibility with CalDav & CardDav is very helpful.

Cons

Some kind of web interface would be nice, so Windows can use it if needed. No integration with FileMaker. Self-Serve version has fewer features than Cloud version.

### "Smallest of users finds things quite useful"

December 14, 2017

5.0

It helps me manage my emails and invoices and similar. It is much easier to use than my last database and it does the backups seamlessly. (The fields below about Industry and company size do not work)

Pros

Works seamlessly and reliably. And the few times I have had problems over what must be 8 or 9 years of use, they have been when I have changed computers, AND THE DAYLITE TEAM HAS ALWAYS BEEN MASTERFUL AT HELPING ME FIX THE PROBLEM! I could not ask for more, better, faster.

### "Terrible if you have big database - support is slow and no priorty given to issues"

June 1, 2020

3.0

Terrible. It was Good until there is a problem...

Pros

It basically does all we need when it's working.

Cons

The ISO does not work or sync. This is a huge issue that started over 6 months ago and I all I get is the run around about how they are working on it. No fixes, just "our engineering team is working on it". I've been using this software for 6 years and for the most part, has been decent until the last six months when I realised I am not a priority and they have little interest in addressing my problem. IF YOU HAVE A BIG DATABASE or plan on growing one, don't even start with with this program.

### "Arguably the best resource for integrating many projects onto a single platform."

July 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

Before Daylite, I had to work across multiple software platforms for different projects -- often multiple platforms for the same project -- which used substantial time and resources. Now, I get more done in less time and with less cost to self or company, because Daylite integrates wonderfully across just about all Mac platforms, and was easy to learn -- felt intuitive, like Mac products tend to do.

Cons

More phone support would be helpful, as would filling out the (very, very) few missing links between current/other software platforms and Daylite, to ensure a seamless experience from start to finish on every project. Minor quibbles, though!

### "Powerful, intuitive CRM"

July 29, 2019

5.0

All-in-all we love Daylite, but we wish we could extend its functionality to more areas of our business.

Pros

Daylite leverages the power of the Mac OS to allow you to manage your data using Smart Lists and incredible searchability. It integrates with Mail to automatically import communications. It is easy and intuitive to use and works offline with sync for increased speed.

Cons

Daylite has limited functionality when it comes to quoting and invoicing as well as limited integrations.

### "A great tool for team collaboration"

October 4, 2021

5.0

Pros

The team dashboard enables me to quickly assign tasks and delegate/create work lists for tracking who's doing what. It's also really nice that it syncs with my AppleMail so everyone can see what's being communicated to the client/prospect.

Cons

I feel there's a little bit of a learning curve, mostly because of its many features, it could be a bit more user-friendly. I also wish it wasn't restricted to Mac iOS.

Pros

I like the ability for it to be customizable by the end user.

Due to the end user customizeability it is incumbent upon the team to adopt common protocols in set up and use. Plus you have to buy add ons to create custom reports and widgets.

November 1, 2017

The benefit of keeping my day to day organized, which allows me to stay on top of things.

Pros

I find Daylite very easy to use and customizable for how I like to sort and organize everything that the software provides.

Cons

There is nothing that I have found thus far that causes me to not like Daylite. A little annoyance may be changing the spacing of the calendar time scale so that I can see my entire day on one screen without having to scroll up or down.

### "This company is not to be trusted."

November 8, 2018

1.0

After developing my entire CRM system around Daylite, they switch to a subscription service. It's bait and switch. My data and my system are now being held ransom. The company cannot be trusted. Don't commit yourself or your company to them!

Pros

Daylite has the best feature set available. It connects mail, projects, calendars, and more. One can get a lot done from within this one program.

Cons

Extremely expensive for an individual. I bought the product before they switched to a subscription model. If I want to continue, I must keep paying.

Review Source

Response from Marketcircle

November 19, 2018

Hi David, Is the price of the subscription your main hesitation for moving away from Daylite? We’d like to work towards having tiered pricing as we understand not everyone gets the same value out of Daylite based on your needs and which features you use /don’t use. Are you open to discussing how you’re using Daylite and figuring out a price point that fits your needs better? Also, with the subscription model your data is always yours. You can switch to the free plan at any time to still access your data in the event you want to stop paying for your subscription. Open to chatting more about this. You can reach out to our Customer Service Team at info@marketcircle.com

Daylite helps us have a repository that holds all the information we need in our day to day workload with regards to customers. We use it to follow up on todos and to delegate work, and keep track of information sent to customers.

Pros

Daylite is the perfect tool for us to view customer contacts, communications, promises made and tasks to do.

Cons

I would have preferred an iPad optimized version that had all the functionality that I have in the desktop version.

### "A Robust CRM for Personal Businesses"

August 22, 2018

5.0

Putting together campaigns and follow ups, whether B2B or B2C is absolutely seamless. Prepare to get organized in a way you couldn’t imagine before.

Pros

The integration between iOS and OS X make this the most powerful CRM on the market for small businesses running Macs. Making calls, reviewing notes, following up with customers, and formulating campaigns are brilliantly seamless with Daylite.

Cons

While it’s a solid, unhesitatingly buy for Mac shops, it’s unable to integrate well with A heterogenous shop— PCs and Androids don’t play well with it.
