### "Daylite is the perfect Apple Mac/iOS CRM and Project manager."

January 22, 2018

5.0

Pros

Daylite integrates so closely with the Apple ecosystem. It has allowed us to consolidate on all Apple technology and know that everyone has the best product for integration. One of the best parts for us is that it allows us to not only save and store as much information on our clients and transactions as we need, but it allows us to find, access, and get reports on that information. Many other CRM's that we tried previously were real estate industry specific, but they did not actually allow us to get the information in the ways that we wanted.

Cons

As we are in the real estate industry, there are many real estate specific products that were easier in the beginning to use. They were set up the way the majority of real estate agents/brokers work. Daylite took some extra time and effort to setup in the beginning, but we are now feeling like the extra time was worth it as we are able to customize it more to our systems. Just be prepared to put in the extra time up front.

### "I use Daylite to store all my emails and equally as important patient reports. "

May 30, 2017

5.0

Systematic integration of information technology. Can be used in a variety of circumstances from professional storage information to family documents.

Pros

Allows me to store all my contact communications and relationships to me so that I can efficiently respond to any questions as well as send out notices. For example I have a patient category that I can send group communications regarding treatments and government subsidies as well as I can send group emails to other traders regarding our outcomes. The program does a lot to systematize the information provided over the Internet and as such is a very valuable if not essential hub of my business. I am particularly appreciative of the support that I get which includes staff logging on and showing me on my computer what I need to do.

Cons

I have been using Daylite for several years now and have become accustomed to working with it. Difficulties have arisen typically in synchronizing the Daylite database with other programs such as Apple Mail.

### "Tons of functions, could be improved"

October 21, 2021

3.0

Pros

My company uses Daylite for all sorts of purposes including our day-to-day calendar, CRM, contact guide, etc. For these uses it is a great program and helps us organize our calendar pretty well

Cons

This software has been challenging to download/operate on certain Macs, often stops working and is not super easy to use on iPhones

### "Bloodstream of my business"

November 8, 2017

5.0

Daylite helps me manage all aspects of my small commercial photography business.

Pros

Daylite helps me link and keep track of all aspects of my business, from client acquisition to project management.

Cons

I wish the program were a little snappier on my computer. Overall, this software is well-thought out and very powerful.

### "Excellent product"

February 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

Very easy to use. Intuitive product. You can customize any field or area of the program that will allow you to track pretty much any information you want.

Cons

Integration across platforms is tricky. I do not believe you can use this product with Microsoft software

### "A good CRM, but lacks integrations."

December 23, 2020

3.0

I've been using Daylite through the company I used to work for (and now contract for) since around 2007. They use it primarily as a CRM, but also as a project management tool to track time worked against projects. This is where the problems started, as we would create "Appointments" in the calendar for time spent on a project, then manually tally everything up at the end of the month. Talk about a royal pain. You also can't do billing directly to clients (to my knowledge), which means you need a separate software solution for that. The more "administrative" elements of my business I can put under one roof, the better (which is why I'm using Freshbooks, which is admittedly accounting software and not a CRM, but Freshbooks has a lot of integrations with other CRM solutions).

Pros

To the extent that I've used it, it's easy to use. To me, it feels like a glorified phone book with a calendar. The GUI is pretty easy to get around, and I like the organizational structure it provides for managing the data.

Cons

It feels like a standalone piece of software that lacks integrations. I'm no expert in Daylite, but not being able to easily track time or invoices against customers/projects was always an issue for me.

### "Total and simple, yet powerful integration with everything Mac OS"

December 14, 2017

5.0

Seamless with Apple OS

Pros

Seamless across all devices is first and foremost important. Integration between Apple Mail and Daylite is invaluable. Simple and intuitive interface that is customizable to our industry. No downtime, need for extensive backup plan of data. Customer service is 100% on point with any questions or issues I may have

### "Review"

March 6, 2019

4.0

Very positive.

Pros

Using Daylite allows you to see Daylight (I'm Australian) as you are able to open less time infant of your computer and more time outside of the office due to increased productivity and efficiency.

Cons

Product suggestions and enhancements are not acted on as soon as would be ideal. Now that you are not developing two parallel products; one self-serve and one cloud I am hopeful this will change.

### "Pleasantly rewarding"

January 25, 2018

4.0

Pros

Once over the initial hump of transitioning from Outlook to Daylite the program becomes easy to use and is more efficient.

Cons

Marketcircle does not provide live technical support. Chat and email are way too time consuming. Please provide live tech support!!!

### "Fund manager operating a debt fund"

January 31, 2020

5.0

I run a funds management business that lends money and we need to be able to stay on top of both investors and borrowers requirements. Arranging things in projects is a life saver because all my information about a project is in the same place, available to me wherever I am. When I need to interact with either a borrower or an investor I am able to answer their questions without having to refer back to the office.

Pros

It keeps my whole life organised. I work at two different companies and teach a couple of university courses each year so my life is busy. Daylite enables me to keep track of projects and people. It keeps everything I need in one place.

Cons

It's a function of how calendars work, so it's not a problem that Daylite caused, but it can be difficult to keep calendars synched across a variety of platforms and devices.

### "Perfect filters and reports"

October 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

Our team deals with 100 to 200 persons a day. Daylite is the best CRM for us when it comes to filters, reports, analysis and bulk edits. It easily integrates with all other tools via Zapier.

Cons

It should support Gmail and not just Apple Mail.

### "Get Product For The Apple Centric Environment"

April 13, 2017

5.0

Daylite manages customers, accounts opportunities with ease. Tightly coupled integration with Apple Mail and calendaring functions make it a seamless product that delivers results. It has depth and many time saving features as result of this tightly coupled nature of the Apple only ecosystem. It is this point where the challenge to Daylite exists, not the product but having the customer convert from a non-Apple platform to a Apple based computing infrastructure. The barriers of cost outside of Daylite are not insignificant, but the good news is that this cost barrier is becoming less over time and most users would be happy to move to an Apple based product.

Pros

Great Opportunity management. Ability to tag specific emails through the Mail Assistant to people, companies and opportunities is one of the greatest strengths Easy to create sales processes Find anything instantly with database wide searching. Easy to integrate with supported 3rd party applications such as bulk mailers

Cons

Single platform support - Apple Only. (Including no Web Portal Interface)

### "Oh, what a relief it is.... to finally make the jump to Daylite online!"

September 12, 2017

5.0

Can't run our National non-profit without it.

Pros

The integration of email, and tons of fields plus 13 extras, gives me plenty of flexibility to sort/select and find the record I'm looking for. Fr'instance, say, it's somebody I met at a Rotary Club in some state, but forgot the name, I simply do a search on any word or phrase (not necessarily a keyword) and Daylite finds the likely matches, whether in an email, or a note, or whatever. The associations of who is connected to who (whom?) and how, helps to connected the dots even more.

Cons

While there are plenty of report formats, and capability to modify somewhat, this could be improved. The Access database (at least from what I recall years ago) had a neat way to select/order reports & forms, such as listing, say, customers by city, within county, within state, within region, etc.

### "Great all-in-one CRM, Lead Management and Workflow tool for our business!"

June 8, 2017

4.0

Our company has been using Daylite for 5+ years. MarketCircle is great at listening to customers and making updates and changes that are helpful to us. We are an executive recruiting firm and use this software to track clients, candidates, and each position we are asked to fill.

Pros

Daylite helps us to keep all information about a contact in one place. We can have contact information, notes from every conversation, every email communication, every document we have sent, and every opportunity, project or task associated with the client. Daylite has a great deal of flexibility in the ways you can remind yourself about upcoming activities. It helps us keep commitments to prospects and clients.

Cons

We cannot find a way to scan and load contacts into Daylite. We also wish it interacted with Evernote. We also wish that we could create custom reports more easily. Right now, Daylite recommends that we use a partner to create reports.

### "Could not run my company without Daylite"

January 30, 2020

5.0

• Exceptional experience....again, I could not run my business w/o Daylite • My clients, partners & cohorts - and even my competition - marvel at the fact that I can literally pull any type of historical info. from Daylite that I want.

Pros

• Has a local client and local copy of the database...not requiring an internet connection to work • Seamless integration with Apple Mail application • Ability to very easily link pretty much any data type to any other data type

Cons

• Doesn't (yet) include some of the more modern features of some other CRM's (Ex: Suggesting or even auto-pulling Linkedin info. for contacts) • (Understandably), the project management features are not "collaborative" with clients....as each Daylite user much have a full Daylite account.

### "Stable, Mac (and iOS devices) dedicated CRM software, you're not going to need more "

September 8, 2017

5.0

Streamlining of customer relation management and project management. Saves a lot of work.

Pros

Easy implementation, rich functionality, integration with other Apple devices, iOS app for working on the road. Every functionality worked on first try with one exception, but then again the customer support was perfect

Cons

The user interface looks a bit outdated, yet it is easy to navigate. There is self-serve (i.e. company hosted, one time purchase) and cloud version (subscription). The company seems to promote the cloud version and the functionalityof the self-serve is limited in comparison with the cloud. Yet even the self-serve version functionality is more than sufficient for anyone.

### "Great and helpful, CRM directly inside Mac Mail."

October 25, 2017

5.0

Save time get both more of an overview and drilldown capability into contact-specific information.

Pros

Ties in directly with Mac Mail. Can even send personalized SMS to groups! Very nifty and clever in terms of group organization and filters. Has helpful 3rd party plugins for telephony, dialing out and showing who's calling you. Gives other calendar and contact apps edit capabilities with CalDAV.

Cons

The printing capability e.g. for projects with tasks and notes could be improved, in order to take to a meeting. In the beginning there was an issue with handling pdf attachments in mass mails, but it seems it has been fixed now.

### "Restricted to Mac and difficult to navigate"

January 27, 2021

3.0

Overall the fact that it was limited to only Apple products and was difficult to onboard new employees ultimately led us to stop using it.

Pros

Having it automatically track emails and phone calls was handy when used. Unfortunately a lot of the other difficulties meant I didn't use it much.

Cons

Not intuitive or easy to pick up. Seems like a lot of things were built for past users of the product who were used to it, not built to bring new users up to speed quickly. Also being restricted just to Apple products made it very difficult to use it company-wide.

### "All the Features I want and More"

April 3, 2019

5.0

Maintaining focus on every relationship and opportunity will take my business to a higher level.

Pros

The deeper I get into the Daylite app, the greater is my appreciation for the thought behind the functionality. I can easily filter my contacts in a way that allows me greater efficiency in my work. Details of contacts are displayed prominently for quick reference, without having to leave the list view. Integration with Apple Mail is absolutely brilliant. Apple Mail was not my primary mail app, but it is now. Creating a task, appointment or new contact from the Mail app saves time, but most importantly, the actual contacts don't slip through the cracks. I know with certainty I will make more money by using Daylite because I will build my relationships more thoroughly.

Cons

The interface isn't the most modern looking. I wish the font were larger, but I'm getting used to it. After finding out what Daylite does for me, it's worth it.

### "Very Robust System for Small Business---But you Have to Put the Work In"

March 15, 2017

5.0

Pros

Daylite has a lot of functionality and wonderful integration. (Our calendar and email integrates with Daylite). We use this software for our customer database. To get the most out of the product, you need to take the tutorials so you can learn how to "tag" customers and create mini databases. For example, if you have a buyer that has bought certain items from you company, you will want to tag that buyer with the name of the item so you can pull up reports. The more you use the tags and connections, the better your reports will be. We find these very useful, but if someone in the office forgets to tag a customer properly, the data is pretty much useless.

Cons

It is not "plug and play". You need to put the work in to understand the functionality.l If you have a "lazy" employee, you might not get the full use of the software
