Being totaly in the dark I'm looking for pointers on appropriate software for a Housebuilder to introduce to collate track and manage customers from initial reservation through to sale and afterword customer care if they have a problem.

So far I've only found out about a company called sunrise. Any other suggestions.

Requirement is for only about 3-5 users and cheap so a full blown bespoke program may be too expensive.

Thoughts please. Any Phers that sell this let me know.

ACT is what you want, its bloody easy and bloody clever.

Either that or GoldMine anyhoo...

We use Goldmine and its fairly versatile - haven't really compared it against ACT, so cant comment on which is best.

We found ACT! to be a bit cack so developed our own system inhouse. There is talk of us polishing it off and making it available for sale, but this won't be for a while yet.

Goldmine is supposed to be good but expensive.

so I can't sell you Siebel or MS CRM then?!?!SalesLogix (now from Sage) might be worth looking at too. There are two versions one for 5-25 (ie batches of 5) and works out around £400 per user. I don't know if that is too expensive for you. If you want more info just mail me via profile.
