What do you feel is the best CRM available for running a real estate office and why.

I am a broker with 15 agents on my team. I'd like something that has the ability to manage leads, drip email, tasks, follow-up plans,...

Any feedback would be appreciated!

I have heard great things about Sales Force. I have never personally used it but it is my understanding that the program will actually take a lead, verify that is contact info is legit, and seperate the lead as a good or bad lead. I also know people using it for help dispurse leads to different sales team members to call and book the leads.

I use Send Pepper which is an auto responder system. I am able to manage my clients, drip emails, and follow up. I do not use it for anytime else but you should also check it out.

Go to GaryDavidHall.com. He is a "tester", and studies all the major CRM systems. If you tell him what your CRM needs are, he can tell you the good, bad, and ugly of them. I actually have him helping me now to make a decision to stay with TP, or move to another system.

IXACT Contact is a really great web-based CRM that's easy to use and specifically designed for realtors. In fact, it's one of the system's Gary David Hall reccomends. Some of it's features include drip marketing, Smartphone Wireless Syncronization, and Activity Plans. They offer a 5-week free trial on their website - [url=http://www.ixactcontact.com]IXACT Contact[/url] .

I'm a big fan of HighRise.... http://www.highrisehq.com.

Made by 37signals, who also makes BaseCamp, a project management program I use too, to manage tasks amongst my team.

Best of luck!
