Pobuca Connect

Vorteile

Easy and a quick way to import large amount of contacts simultaneously.
Easy Grouping of contacts with extra custom field making it easy to filter all contacts to a limited few.

Nachteile

it is not quite easy to detect duplicate contacts especially if you have a large data set.
Problem having duplicate organizations with similar names. I think for this in case of an existing organization with similar name should be merged rather than creating another.

Vorteile

Easy to use, no adds. good interface. better search option.

Nachteile

Nothing to say. All about to say that it needs to include theme so that user can enjoy their own theme.

Vorteile

Pubuca Connect does a great job of storing contact information and allowing multiple people to access the contacts under different permission levels. The ability to utilize custom fields is also incredibly useful. Having both Android and iPhone apps is very useful for us.

Nachteile

However, Pobuca Connect has a long ways to go before businesses can use this product alone for their contact management, email marketing, and customer relationship management. Let's start with the integration with Office 365. While it is very useful to be able to login to Pobuca using our Office 365 credentials, the integration doesn't go far enough. The Pobuca Outlook addon, for example, allows searching for contact information, but doesn't allow edits
For email marketing, many businesses can't afford to hire another web developer to design and maintain email templates that will be mobile friendly, tablet friendly, laptop and desktop friendly. Currently, the email marketing editor is simply a HTML WYSIWYG editor box. Having a robust and interactive email template designer similar to MailChimp and dynamic contact database fields for personalizing a mass email campaign would bring this email marketing tool in line with their top competitors.

Additionally, while Pobuca users can be segmented into different permission groups, there is currently no method, short of paying the developers several hundred dollars to create a report that can be easily generated showing the edits and changes in the contact database mapped to the specific user that made those changes. Currently, if one disgruntled employee had the permission to delete all contacts in the Pobuca database, they could and the rest of the users wouldn't know who performed the action, or how to undo the deletion operation.

Vorteile

Easy to import contacts, and easy to arrange them by organisation. Fast customer service. The software will synch contacts across an organisation (although this is less useful to a lone worker like me). Nice little desktop app which helps you find what you need quickly (e.g. someone's number when you need to make a call). Great value for money as it's free for a single person like me; can't comment on the other pricing structures. Storage of data is GDPR compliant.

Nachteile

Having nicely imported all your data, you can't EXPORT it without upgrading to a paid plan, which is a bit annoying if you want to move to another contact manager.

Vorteile

The sorting; the interface; the search;

Nachteile

I dont have something in mind. Nothing occurs

Vorteile

IT HAS DISTINCT FUNCTIONAL MODES, AND IT'S VERY PRACTICAL TO ORGANIZE A COMPANY'S CONTACTS, LIKE CUSTOMER CONTACTS.
THE INTERFACE IS MODERN, AND SIMPLE .

Nachteile

POBUKA HAS AN INTERFACE MODERN, AND SIMPLE BUT THE SEARCH DOES NOT WORKS WELL. SOMETIMES IT TAKES A LONG TIME IN SEARCH AND OFTEN NOT FOUND.

Vorteile

Very systematic approach towards the contacts database formation.

Nachteile

have fields with max letters capacity because of which sometime its difficult to feed complete info.

Vorteile

-Easy on-boarding
-tools for import from other software
- app for mobile and add-in for outlook integration
- short learning curve
-access / rights management (who sees what)

Nachteile

- needs better language support on data entry (other than English)
- better integration with office 365 (i should be able to add a contact right away from new email
- login through add-in has to much friction

Vorteile

Easy to use, friendy, quite useful and helpful

Nachteile

Every time I use it, requires to enter credentials even though I choose to keep me signed

Vorteile

The User Interface is great! They also have excellent customer service. I loved the overall interface. It is also available across the devices which is great! If you are very big organisation with a lot of contacts, this would definitely help you.

Vorteile

Easy, simple to use and had all the features I required

Nachteile

There is not a lot to NOT like other than a few annoying points on not being able to duplicate contacts.

Vorteile

Great to use it basically with -external / remote collegues. No need to have different lists with contacts, or trying to update different apps / programs. Especially for employees who are travelling or do not have a standard office base, it is great.

Vorteile

the search bar is supremely helpful

Nachteile

I really do not need the contacts section when I can search for business.

Vorteile

It's easy to use . The design is great and being online and responsive really is something . I liked the customer support also .

Nachteile

I think it lacks some features but on the other hand it's really easy to use because of that

Vorteile

easy, Filters with Favorites etc, Business Cards section

Nachteile

Not really

Nachteile

Non-existent support. Waiting months for my outlook contacts to be uploaded. Support claimed my pst files where too complicated for their bots. I guess they are too complicated for their staff too.

Vorteile

Ease of use, simplicity of layout, and the app. I've been looking for something like this for a long time and the fact that it's free is also a great plus as I would not pay for one but would do this work manually otherwise.

Nachteile

Would like to add photos for contacts; would also like to be able to add a company even if it doesn't appear in the suggested drop down list

Vorteile

The customer care service is always available

Nachteile

It is very slow. Too much for a timely use. Every time I change page I have to wait

Vorteile

That it keeps all my contacts organized.

Vorteile

easy to use, and functional
Org, contact structure is good

Nachteile

App seems better than desktop software. It can not prevent employee from using Apps.

Vorteile

Un très bon logiciel, ça facilite la gestion des contacts

Nachteile

Je recommande ce logiciel au utulisateur

Vorteile

Facilite la gestion des contacts et d'organiser le travail. C'est très utile.

Nachteile

Je le recommande, je n'ai pas une grande chose à y reprocher.

Vorteile

Simplicity and customisation of the metadata, no many unnecessary fields, structures, etc.

Mobile app makes difference when you are on the field and need to get the contact of the parent of your athlete. (we use it to keep the contacts of young athletes and their parents.)

Emailing to many recipients is important to approach the parents with important information.

Nachteile

The loading speed of the pages is awful unfortunately.... It sometimes ruins the whole experience. Have to wait for minutes to update a single contact.

Missing filtering by Tags with AND condition, i.e. select only those who have both tags "2006" AND "Parent".

Vorteile

I've tried almost every contact management app out there and Pobuca is one of the best, if not the best. Far better than the standard contacts app, of course. The UI is fairly straightforward even though the app itself does a lot for you. Contacts organization and the sharing of those contacts across multiple devices really stands out for me. I have over 1,200 contacts on my phone, so the Smart Search feature helps a lot, too, because I can't always remember the exact name or spelling of the name of the person I'm searching for. Toss in the biz card scanner and you've got Pobuca. Upcoming features are also apparently integration with social media accounts and the ability to send email and sms campaigns. Once those are succesfully implemented, there will be no question about which contact app I'll be using 100% of the time.

Nachteile

Personally, I'd like to be able to switch up the color scheme. The seafoam green is cool for the shirt I have that color in, but on my phone, I prefer darkmode colors!

Vorteile

what I like most about the application is: ease of use and the user interface

Nachteile

what i like the least is that i would like to integrate with microsoft outlook

Vorteile

1. Independent. Not connect to any other software or the cloud.
2. Simple and quick to learn and use.
3. The Android App allows me to make calls and keep track.
4. Was able to move all my contacts in a jiffy.
5. Search is fast.
6. Mutiple device support is great.

Nachteile

The Windows version does not work.
The Cloud based version is a bit slow.

Vorteile

Web-based, ability to search all fields, grouping functionality.

Nachteile

Often we can't login -- perhaps server issues, but it's really frustrating. The mobile app is not easy to use for some of our employees. The inability to backup a hard copy of all contacts is troublesome and for this reason we're researching switching platforms. There are other small things we've wanted to be able to do but can't, such as create a contact list using contacts with only physical addresses (no email address).

Vorteile

Pobuca is a great tool for sorting all of your business contacts. And helped me finally get rid of my old overflowing Rolodex.

Nachteile

It would be very useful if I could search by product that the vendors sell.

Vorteile

I really love that I can just search what I need instead of having to remember what each company sells. And that all of my contacts are in just one place.

Nachteile

This program defaults to the sellers name instead of the business which is and easy fix but would just be more convenient the other way.

Vorteile

I access easily all company's phone numbers and I am able to see role desk number and mobile

Nachteile

It would nice if i could copy a contact to my phone contacts
or at least to have copy-paste functionality available

Vorteile

The fact that you can add custom fields we need at the office for filtering our database. This has been most helpful.

Nachteile

There is no way to erase duplicates but by going one by one, this takes a lot of time, and you have to go all the way to the top, letter A, to scroll down to where you left off...
Changing the dialing way our government settled on july, was easier because I exported the whole thing to excel and that made this huge task more manageable.

Vorteile

Once you get the hang of it, second nature to pull up the app and find who/what you need. Ability to save/store/keep track of 10k+ business contacts

Nachteile

Having to download an app and break the habit of going to your phone contacts

Vorteile

Pobuca Connect is a comprehensive contact management application that helps us to collect all our business contacts inside a single address book.

Nachteile

Pobuca Connect should have more comprehensive third party integrations and needs to offer fast customer service.

Vorteile

That it is cloud-based.

Nachteile

That it arbitrarily cuts off the NOTES section of our Contacts after only one line of comments (We always have more information than that) and there is no way to access the rest of our carefully taken and maintained NOTES.

Vorteile

This is a great way for our team to store and share contact info.

Nachteile

Minor complaint so far is that sometimes it doesn’t automatically syncs and you have to manually do it.

Vorteile

The possibility of adding information of Organizations

Nachteile

That it is not possible to add different contact lists defined by me. For example, list of suppliers, lists of collaborators, even if they do not belong to the same organization.

Vorteile

Our team uses this to keep track of contacts in one concise place.

Nachteile

We would like to be able to see a contact's name in our Apple iPhone text messages. Right now, we just see their number.

Vorteile

I can easily get any number of any colleagues of my organisation.

Nachteile

Can’t export

Vorteile

Easy to use and very helpful for CRM Based Companies and for individuals as well. Quick support is a reason why i have selected this app.

Nachteile

1) sharing by selecting multiple vcards is not possible only we can share by exporting multiple contacts.
2) select all options is not there.

Vorteile

It’s easy to navigate while using my iPhone when I’m out marketing.

Nachteile

There isn’t enough space to include a contact persons information.

Vorteile

Fast response. Easy use.

Nachteile

In admin console (web interface) no user deletion or massively upload.

Vorteile

If our business was bigger this seems like a great idea.

Nachteile

Was difficult to understand and when adding contacts I ended up with multiple duplicates which made things very difficult for my partners.

Vorteile

We have been using Pobuca to store and distribute valuable contact numbers amongst our large physician practice. We have over 40 doctors who need to connect with specialists at three different hospitals. These specialists want us to use their super secret cell phone numbers but maintaining this database of numbers was onerous before Pobuca. Management of the database has been easy

Nachteile

The import function needs some refining. It was too easy to create duplicate entries from the import process.
Android app needs a few tweaks. Occasional crash issues and the search function does not clear out a previous search without hitting backspace.

Vorteile

Great customer service, stable app, easy to use, nice interface, bulk upload, nice mobile app

Nachteile

The customization of contacts are a bit limited (predefined deps and roles)

Vorteile

Accessible. It is nice to be able to access it just about anywhere. It is nice to be able to share it with my business partner and whatever we put in the database is accessible by all of us.

Nachteile

Too complicated. I was looking for something rather simple to use (without all the bell and whistles).
You should consider offering different programs depending on what your customers are looking for.
