Organize Contacts
You can typically store comprehensive contact profiles that include names, phone numbers, email addresses, job titles, company affiliations, and even rich details like social media links and photos. Many platforms also let you add notes and custom fields to tailor each contact to your business’s needs.
The contact-management module allows you to tag and segment contacts using labels, categories, or custom fields. This makes it easy to filter contacts by criteria such as location, industry, or engagement stage, enabling more efficient search and targeted communication.
Yes, these systems typically record interaction history—emails sent, calls logged, meetings scheduled—as well as notes linked to each contact. This provides a full engagement timeline and aids collaboration across teams.
Absolutely. Most contact-management features include the ability to import and export contact data via CSV or spreadsheets. They also integrate with email, calendar platforms, CRM tools, and other business applications to ensure seamless data flow.
Data Import
Most contact-management tools support standard formats like CSV, Excel (.XLS/.XLSX), VCF (vCard), and sometimes JSON. They also typically provide template files (e.g., formatted CSVs) for smooth uploads.
During import, you'll be guided through a mapping interface to align your file’s columns—like Name, Email, Phone—with the system’s internal contact fields. You can often save these mapping preferences for future imports, saving time and ensuring consistency.
Duplicates are generally detected and handled based on your chosen rule—options usually include skip duplicates, update existing entries, or merge details. Error logs highlight specific rows with issues (like invalid email formats or missing required data), helping you correct and retry only the affected entries.
Yes—if your import file includes columns for tags, custom attributes, or group identifiers, the system will process and apply them accordingly. This lets you enrich contacts during import and ensures they're ready for segmented communication or follow-up workflows right away.
Track Leads
You must include first name, last name, and email address for each contact in the import CSV. Optional fields may include phone number and email consent status. Templates usually ensure you stay within the correct format.
Yes, you can update existing contacts. If a contact’s email already exists in the system, the tool can update fields like email consent based on your input in the import file.
