#23We wrote our own, lots of work but it's fully integrated into my company.

#24I'm interested in whether anyone has found one that will let you log messages from within GMail. I'm not talking about the "social CRM" that can pull up an avatar. I don't want to have to forward or BCC messages to get them into my CRM, so a simple "log message" button in GMail would be ideal.

#25I'm surprised no one's mentioned MediaWiki. Does it have some obvious problems I'm overlooking?
Overkill, non-salesperson friendly syntax, no CRM-specific functionality (that I know of).

#26We tried a whole bunch of things, but sharing contacts, managing notes, follow-up reminders, etc. was just too much of a hack to bother with for a two man shop like ours. So here's what we did: 1) Make a Google spreadsheet 2) Share with the team 3) Add a "follow up" column of dates 4) Sort by that 5) Learn to love the find-in-sheet command Works great!
Would be nice if you could make an example with your sensitive data replaced?

what do you mean by a simple log message button? what are the benefits for this? I'm curious because I'm currently using Google contacts.

#28Daylite. It's mac-only, but I'm mostly using it for my own purposes, so that's not a dealbreaker.

You have identified a definite pain point. Unfortunately it doesn't yet look like there is enough there for me to choose it as a core business tool.
I look forward to seeing it progress.
