I have fallen in love..... Yes, Xobni has delivered new meaning to me, re-ignited my passion for using my email client - they have given me knowledge.
Ok, so I am a little dramatic, but I have used a ton of software in the past and I have experienced many broken promises in my quest to find a simple tool that will help leverage Outlook for a decent relationship manager. Well, Xobni delivers and does a few better. Not only does Xobni provide a more effective method of leveraging your contacts in Outlook, but it also tracks each email thread with that contact - maintaining an easily accessible history. Trouble finding that attachment sent by your co-worker last month, no problem Xobni also provides a listing of all attachments by each contact.
However, Xobni does not stop there. Every time you highlight an email to read Xobni updates with that persons information providing you with a summary of emails that you have sent this contact and what they have sent you. In addition, Xobni automatically searches each email for a telephone number and puts that front and centre for quick and easy access, as well, you will see a listing of all the people connected to both you through emails.
Click the organize tab at the top and you will see a summary of your appointments and tasks. Last but not least Xobni also highlights those people that you have not been in contact with from some time - helping you maintain your relationships.
The bad news to all of this is that Xobni is in closed beta, meaning you can sign up, but you will have to wait for an official invite to get your hands on this gem.
Xobni is not a CRM system, but it sure puts the steriods into your MS Outlook.
