What is the best way to manage your contacts across multiple platforms and devices?

I think this does the best job of _automatically_ tracking contacts... but it's not great. Anyway, i sync all of my iCloud contacts here, and then there is deduping functionality to keep them merged and happy. not perfect... but not terrible to use as a "source of truth"

I have forgotten that I have contacts to manage with google contacts. Out of sight out of mind. I have changed multiple devices and the contacts are there and up to date

Hands down the best no-fuss solution to managing contacts. I change devices pretty often and I never think of contacts at all - Google Contacts syncs everything. The web dashboard to manage contacts is a neat feature.

I think, with a little bit of Zapier / IFTTT work, you could make Airtable a pretty cool contact database. You could even sync down your social followers in different tables, and have it all connect in one big one. i've used airtable in lieu of other CRM software for a local organization, and it's way easier and free!

I like using fieldbook for managing and organizing contacts!

For lack of a better option, I had used spreadsheets to keep track of it all in one place. Until testing Folk. Now I've got all my sources, accounts, devices all synced and the best thing is that Folk actually deduplicates them automatically! Other tools I had tried required too much setup because I had to manually merge contacts... It also lets you tag contacts and run them through simple flows - which is exactly what I needed to keep my network organized.

Best for business

This might help to synch Apple Contacts with Google Contacts mess, I hope.

Have all your contacts synced with iCloud on all your computers and all your devices.

Have a look at Agile CRM's contact management feature: https://www.agilecrm.com/360-deg... View everything you need to know about each contact on a single page and deliver a personalized experience with every customer or prospect interaction. > Build Contact Profiles Build a detailed profile for each contact that includes contact information, communication history, social media profiles, interests, points of engagement, lead scores, and related tasks and notes. Access all of that information from a single contact page. > Share Information Across Teams Because you’re working in the cloud, every team member—regardless of their department—can have access to view and update information on a contact’s page. Regardless of who is assisting your customer today, he or she will have all that customer’s historical data at their fingertips. > Improve Data Integrity When every interaction that your staff has with a contact is tracked and updated in real time, the information therein will always be up-to-date. And when there is one source of information that everyone in your company is using, everyone pitches into the data upkeep, producing cleaner, more accurate data to work with. > Maximize Efficiency With everyone able to update the information on a contact’s page, you’re able to capture more data and insight more quickly. This drastically reduces inefficient overlap that occurs when two teams, working in isolation, gather the same information on the same contact. Your team will be able to focus more on high-value tasks and less on data entry. FYI, Agile CRM has been rated as the best by: - G2Crowd, - Capterra, - TrustRadius Currently serves over 14,000 businesses worldwide! It's a free tool, you can try it and share your feedback! :)

I would highly recommend Contactzilla to manage your contacts. As a founder in a small to medium team, we wanted to ensure all of our contacts were in one central place and accessible to all (otherwise we kept losing them). I can sync between all our devices, and the best thing of all is I can set permissions on address books. Meaning only certain team members can edit or change address books. They offer a great pricing plan and even discounts for charities (which we are!)
