Or the greed to use it. If you're trying to move on everything and keep stuff from slipping between the cracks, the greed will eventually motivate you. At some point, it'll hit you when you realize that using CRM to track your leads could have landed you that x thousand dollar gig. it'll also give you the visibility to realize that the lead you're chasing isn't nearly as hot as some of the other opportunities you have in the fire.

We have an in-house CRM (but we are a telecom, so we need a CRM.) As an MSP depending on size a CRM might be very nice. NTG I would think you would be big enough to need a CRM. Keep all of the customer contact information organized.

We are. We have MS CRM for real CRM duties. And we use MS CRM for a customer ticketing system. And we use ManageEngine for our internal ticketing system now.

Our company deals with residential and small business clients. Definition of small business in my world: "one man shops, mom & pops, and businesses that have no server and usually less that 15 workers"
I used to use Business Contact Manager for Office (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/what-is-business-contact-manager-for-outlook-HP010262568.aspx) for many years. Of course I also ran my shop on Office Accounting 2007 software (after demoing the 2006 release).
Now I use I use RepairShopr for my tech CRM and WHMCS for my marketing/web design CRM along with ZenDesk.

@technobabble I had never heard of your hosted repair shop CRM before. An interesting product. Might be perfect for your business model. Very cool.

I started using that and WHMCS in October and haven't looked back. RepairShopr also has been updating their product almost monthly adding user requested features and they have fantastic tech support!
