Getting started on systems can be slow, but we have given our users super-powerful tools to allow them to do mass imports quickly and easily. The main two use cases for this are;

  1. New BriteApp users: who need to upload information from Excel sheets or from another CRM management system. Not all new users, such as startup companies, will want to do a mass import.

  2. Day-to-day management of your business: you may want to mass import a database of companies and contacts or a list of new inquiries from a trade fair.
