“What I like the least about Maximizer is that some of the field can be deleted that shouldn't. When we first got Maximizer, the amount of fields made it hard to find any one particular field. When I deleted some of them I later found out that they were needed to produce some reports and that I was unable to recreate them. As such we are unable to use maximizer to its full potential.“

### "Maximizer Review, a positive overall experience. "

November 28, 2024

4.0

Other that not being able to produce certain reports, Maximizer does exactly what we need it for. Keeping track of client information and interactions.

Pros

what i like most about maximizer is the ability to add custom fields and the ease of importing data once I figured it out.

Cons

What I like the least about Maximizer is that some of the field can be deleted that shouldn't. When we first got Maximizer, the amount of fields made it hard to find any one particular field. When I deleted some of them I later found out that they were needed to produce some reports and that I was unable to recreate them. As such we are unable to use maximizer to its full potential.

Reason for choosing Maximizer CRM

Pricing was the biggest factor, but we also had limits on what CRM's we could use due to our compliance department.

I use Maximizer for all our business needs for prospects, clients & internally. It is very beneficial for a range of options including the integrations & documentation. Very easy to learn.

Pros

Very easy to use & learn. Intuitive design & process. Lots of features to use to optimize your business. Able to hide features you aren't using. Very customizable to our business. Really great overall considering the other CRM's in the market.

Cons

There is nothing I dislike about Maximizer.

December 20, 2024

5.0

Amazing! I use Maximizer on the daily. Our office would not be able to function without it.

Pros

I love the integration with outlook and template options. This saves us so much time! I also use the statuses often to check in on our workflow and help ensure no one slips through the cracks. I also love the export/import features these save me so much time and are helpful for date reports.

Cons

No real complaints, on area that could be improved is having a client facing portion of the software.

November 1, 2024

5.0

I have used this program for over 30 years and tried most competitors in that time frame. I have always come back to Maximizer for it's ease of use.

Pros

A simple layout that does not overcomplicate what a salesperson really needs to do. I've often thought this program was built for Salespeople and not Management

Cons

It's integration with the newest version of Outlook is still lacking

### "Great Customization with Room for Improvement "

October 30, 2024

5.0

Pros

I like Maximizer for its high level of customizability, allowing me to tailor fields, dashboards, and modules to fit my specific needs. Its comprehensive contact management system is very helpful in my role, as it enables detailed tracking of customer interactions, history, and preferences. The integration with third-party applications like Outlook and Office 365 enhances workflow efficiency, making it easier to manage customer relationships and streamline day-to-day tasks. I also enjoy the addition of the Maximizer Bot "Assisto" as its a great way to ask quick questions about where to find or how to do something new.

Cons

The mass email feature in Maximizer CRM can be frustrating, as formatting often appears fine during drafting but looks misaligned or unprofessional once sent, which impacts the customer experience. The email feature on Maximizer as a whole feels quite outdated. Additionally, managing and splitting household contacts, while not a frequent task, is time-consuming and inconvenient when it does come up.

### "Great Product to Keep Your Business Running Smoothly"

July 27, 2022

5.0

Maximizer is a very important part of our day, we check it to see what tasks we have coming up, have completed, and what we are waiting for. It makes our day run smoothly and keeps everyone on track.

Pros

The features I like about Maximizer is that it is easy to use. There are many features that we use to keep the company running smoothly, even if someone is on holidays. You can add their tasks to yours so you know what needs to be done while they are away. The program keeps the client's files secure and easy to access when looking for a form. The customer service is wonderful and fast in helping find solutions.

Cons

There isn't much negative I can say. I don't use alot of the features, because I don't have time to just play around and see what else I could use to help with efficiency.

### "Ray's Review"

October 25, 2022

5.0

There are too many problems it solves to list, but suffice it to say, I could not run my business without a CRM and a Case Management system which Maximizer does very well!

Pros

The best part has always been the comprehensiveness of the product, how modules fit together, combined with Mail Integration. These have always been key for me. It's easy to use for the most part if you enjoy technology and when you need them, support is very close and very good.

Cons

The price is high in my mind. I enjoyed stand alone because I was more in control of my expenses. I could keep a version running until I had to upgrade. I don't like the never ending cost and in truth, it has caused me to begin looking for alternatives.

Reason for choosing Maximizer CRM

I have been a Maximizer user for over 30 years

November 7, 2024

3.0

I started using it for a bit, but it seems like a lot of extra work to insert contacts.

Pros

It is a useful tool, that can help offices run more smoothly. I can keep track of contacts and to do lists

Cons

it feels scary to use and it is not super straightforward.

### "Overall Poor Quality and Poor Service one set up "

September 2, 2022

1.0

Overall experience was very poor. I would recommend going with a different CRM software solution.

Pros

The software is easy to alter to fit specific processes. They have doe a good job in making the software easy to change without having to hire a tach support team to make the changes.

Cons

The software is VERY basic and doesn't have the ability to sync with multiple email addresses, link emails to the software after they have been sent, there is no email automation to speak of, you have to click multiple times to link every single email to Maximizer. I came over from Salesforce and should have just bit the bullet and paid the extra set up costs. You better hope you don't have a technical problem as you will have to follow up with them multiple times over the course of several weeks to get the problem fixed all the while your functionality is at a stand still.

### "Maximzer"

July 7, 2021

4.0

Overall, it works for what we use. I have been with Maximizer for over 25 years. The cost continues to increase and of course that is a factor.

Pros

I like that we have one place to look for information on our clients. We have saved a lot of trees because of this feature. I don't use a lot of the features available through Maximizer, but this one is critical.

Cons

I would like to be able to send out appointment invites. I really would like a search option so we can find files saved under each client easier. This one would save us a lot of time.

### "Max CRM Review"

March 5, 2020

3.0

Its ok. What really put me off is every time you need some assistance they turn it into a huge billable hour exercise. Talk about ripping off your customers.

Pros

The product out of the box works for what we need, I have the advisor template on mine and it still has the design on selling, and the sales process. This inst the focus of the average advisor. This does the basic features required. however it certainly isn't what it could be.

Cons

It doesn't have the ability to track products well. It took leads tab and renamed it opportunities and felt that was a improvement. it wasn't. We end up using a global note to record and track all items a client has with us.

Reason for choosing Maximizer CRM

This did the basics and got us going.

Hi Brad, Thank you for leaving a review of Maximizer. It's always great to hear feedback from our customers and gauge where we can improve. If there is something we aren't doing well to fit into your workflow I would love to discuss. I feel that you have had somewhat of an off-putting experience due to particular charges, perhaps changes in your software? I would love to discuss and help design a workflow that benefits you. Please reach out to: support@maximizer.com and let them know you would like to discuss the set-up of your Maximizer CRM and we will get a Customer Success Manager on a call to discuss and plan a path forward. We look forward to hearing from you! Best regards, Adam Wilson Head of Customer Success

### "Difficult to set-up, pay as you go support, pieced together from other CRM's"

July 31, 2018

3.0

If you are not a savvy database programer or don't have a staff member that is, then you will likely find this CRM to be very difficult to use and customize to your practice. The cost keeps increasing and once you have been using the system, the company knows they have you on the hook and will keep the price increases rolling your way. Using this is like being caught between a rock and a hard place.

Pros

Online access from anywhere. Dashboard provides a good overview of your business. Wealth edition has some customization to the financial industry.

Cons

The way it is sold and supported is not CUSTOMER friendly. The resellers charge for everything and don't want to teach you how to be independent of them. They would rather do it for you without educating you. Pretty expensive. The webinar support is inadequate, they won't answer some questions and tell you that they have people you can pay to get that done. We should be able to learn it ourselves. You will have to buy a second access for your Administrative Support person, which is not the case with all competitor products and seems like a cash grab. Subscription is paid annually not monthly, so if you don't like it you are out a big chunk of money. Will not separate out billing for multiple advisors in a firm.

### "Daily necessity of my business"

February 13, 2019

5.0

I keep detailed client meeting notes, important dates and follow-ups are automatic. I don't personally utilize the email integration within Maximizer, and hope that some day soon Maximizer will release functionality with MacOS for Outlook Integration, as this would be a huge pro for my business / work-day.

Pros

Customizable to your businesses needs and functions. Organization of all client data and notes. Follow up functionality, and searchable User Defined Fields a huge asset. Access from web/cloud based from anywhere.

Cons

Outlook integration compatibility does not work with MacOS which is a huge negative for me. The Windows Outlook & Word compatibility is seamless though.

### "Upgrades"

August 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

After many years, we upgraded our on-premise version and the way the tech installed it, it grew out of proportion and blew up our server. After a lot of conversations with their support team, we eventually got things up and running again on a new server and this time it didn't grow so big. Then we decided to move to the cloud version. While our database wasn't that big, for some reason our files still were. But their conversion team worked wonders and brought it down to a manageable size again so we weren't paying a fortune for data size. The training was better this time as well as the support team.

Cons

Can't sort UDFs or search for things that were easier to do with our on-premise version.

### "A good piece of CRM Software"

August 2, 2018

4.0

Overall experience is quite positive from an administrator end, from a user perspective I have & have helped people who have had problems navigating and using Maximzier to its fullest potential when they are brand new to the platform.

Pros

Maximizer in comparison to some of it's competitors runs a very light & simplistic method of storing data. This is mainly in respect to have to act as the admin for the data, but Maximizer exports and imports quite nicely from most data subsets which makes maintaining data on a day to day that much easier.

Cons

The site is very dated (especially before the reskin of 2017), and this causes user intuitiveness of finding things were one expects them to be quite difficult. At this point it is a difficult process to properly bring the website into the 21st century, since a massive overhaul would leave many existing users lost.

July 16, 2021

4.0

Pros

This software is easy to understand and become comfortable working in when it comes to contact management and email integration. Maximizer offers many tools to be able to customize your data for your specific business and to continue to build on as your business grows. The ability to set a personalized dashboard to keep targets top of mind is very helpful and is a great way to start the day.

Cons

Having better integrations with other software would make our lives a lot easier. As well as having better duplicate checking for entries would eliminate a lot of work hours used to maintain a clean database.
