I just switched over to BCM from a simple CRM that I had been using for the
past 3 years and frankly, along with being unstable (BCM has to shut down and
restart a few times a day), I'm running into all sorts of other issues
(unable to share data base and can't seem to get any answers), a SIMPLE WAY
to print out an envelope for one contact (you need to buy a 3rd party add on
for all the things that BCM doesn't do, etc etc. You'd be better off going
with something like Maximizer which is quite reasonable. A lot of people I
know use it but I thought it best to have a MS product. It seems I took the
wrong road....don't make the same mistake I did.
