I have been figuring out that between Quickbooks Pro + Bento 2 + Addressbook.app + Google Contacts that I’ll have a CRM solution. I need to be able to have/track customers between all of the applications since I haven’t found an “all-in-one” solution that doesn’t feel like overkill. I hope to eventually have hundreds and thousands of customers but I’m not there yet and most of the solutions I have found are for multiple users and a corporate-ton of customers. I’m almost tempted to drop Bento 2 since it requires a lot of attention that I feel could be better spent actually contacting customers. Simple solution would be to create a new group in my addressbook.app and just keep it sync’ed with google and Quickbooks.
So to wrap up my CRM rant I’m looking for a: single user + integratable (Quickbooks Pro on PC, addressbook on Google, mac client counterpart, and Blackberry from the cloud) + small customer base/startup with ability to import from xls/numbers file.
