Many clients. Endless activity. Solve360.
We help you manage your client interactions and keep everyone coordinated If you work with people you manage a lot of information. This work consumes most of your time and creates little value for your clients. Coordinated teams spend far less time “communicating” and more time planning and doing the right things. Imagine the benefits you'll realize supported by a simple, client-focused system. Discover how our Solve360 will make a huge impact to your bottom line. Oh, and the best part is your team will actually use it.
Is Salesforce too clunky and expensive? Does Highrise lack the integration and features you need? Finding everything else needs a workaround to fit your business? Then you'll find Solve360 is the ideal solution for your team to manage their clients, stay focused on the deals, organize projects and ensure timely responses.
Reach out to your clients Solve360 blends the concepts of CRM and Project Blogs into a private, versatile hub where sales, support, operations and clients team up and stay coordinated. Securely publish individual Project Blogs to anyone with an email address so they can stay up-to-date and collaborate with your team on specific projects.
Every contact and project gets its own simple page If you've mastered the art of using a whiteboard we'll get along great because Solve360 keeps everything known about a contact or project on a single page. On that page your team gathers around what's happened, documents a plan and manages the events, tasks and milestones that are promised.
See things your way What makes Solve360 distinctive is the ability to change the database form fields with a simple drag and drop; now you see the information in a way that makes the perfect sense for your business.
Bring it together It's the tool that helps managers supervise the entire process, improving the precision of the business information and the communication between people working together on one or more projects. With all relevant records in one place, Solve360 keeps your various teams organized and in-sync with what the priorities are.
A well-designed CRM database for working with people and processes Get your everyday work done faster. Maintain a journal for all the people you do business with. Manage work activities on a private Project Blog where you can whiteboard your tasks, events, files, notes, maps, websites, photos, calls. The real-time Activities page provides at-a-glance access to what your company is working on, what needs to get done and who is doing it.
Amazing things can happen when people work together; the same applies when your business applications do too. Solve360 provides more useful points of integration with Google Apps than any other CRM out there.

A taste of what clients have recently said about Solve360 ...
Easy to Use, Powerful Solution Backed By Great People I've been searching for a long, long time for a robust and simple CRM and project management solution and discovered Solve360 yesterday. Sugar, SalesForce, BatchBlue, Basecamp, Highrise self hosted solutions etc etc. You name it, I've probably tried it at some point. If you need a solid, cost-effective solution to organize your activities, resources and sales contacts I highly recommend Solve360. Integrating with Google Apps and FreshBooks is the icing on the cake :)
Nathan Van Prooyen, Rainmaker Commerce
I'm an aged computer geek. My compliments to the Norada team for incredible responsiveness to your user community!!!! You have "raised the bar" in the software space redefining the meaning of "service" in "software as a service."
Kenneth R. Portnoy ("Ken"), NAA Life
Amazing CRM and Business Tool - Everyone Loves It Solve 360 has been an amazing productivity and sales support tool for our business. It's clean and straightforward to use and people are updating their client records pro actively because they find it simple, helpful and productive. The best part is, it has a good integration between sales, operations and management needs, so it's creating better teamwork and workflow. Now Marketing is using the MailChimp integration to help our marketing campaigns and again, it's easy. Also the support has been the best I've ever had from any product, anywhere - way to go - it's refreshing.

Bringing it all together The C100, is a select group of Canadians based primarily in Silicon Valley supports technology entrepreneurship and investment by leveraging the group's collective experience, expertise and relationships to help mentor and grow a new generation of successful Canadian-led technology companies.
As such we were looking for a CRM that would allow us to maintain our growing member database to manage and keep track of the events, contact lists, companies etc. Porting over the information from various sources into Solve360 was a very smooth process and navigating this powerful system is becoming more and more intuitive. With the help of the super responsive and dependable folks at Solve360 we are now in the process of hooking up the back-end of our online forms into the Solve360 system. Will post more reviews about that process but for now a definite thumbs up for Solve360!
Anar Simpson, C100
Great Product! Fabulous Customer Care!! As a small business marketing coach/consultant, I needed a program that was able to track clients and prospects, all communication (emails and phone calls), activities, work projects, etc. Solve360 does this and so much more. It is easy and straightforward so the learning curve is minimal and the benefits immediate! On top of a great product, the customer care is stellar!! Questions are answered quickly and thoroughly. We had a specific idea on how we wanted to use this product with clients and when we inquired about the possibilities, they worked with us to ensure they understood our issues and outcome desires. Then they came up with a recommendation for us on how to use Solve 360 with our clients that addressed every issue we'd voiced. This took several days and they were patient and interested in working with us to give us just what we needed. If you want a great, easy to use product with knowledgeable staff who will work with you to get the most benefit out of their product, look no further than Solve360 and Norada!!
Mary Helen Richer, SellMore Marketing
Solve360 Having worked with systems like Salesforce.com and other even older legacy systems for managing projects, sales, reporting, etc. it was such a relief to finally work with Solve 360. The entire system is incredibly easy to use, and the tools are so easily customizable and fluid that you can do just about anything you want or need to run a business. Previous experience made me expect a long and complex process for migrating our existing data into the Solve system when we signed on, but (as with many things involving Solve) I was yet again delighted and surprised at how easy and intuitive the data transfer actually was. The support staff is excellent and highly responsive - some of the best customer service I've experienced professionally. Highly recommended all around.

We spent three months trialling different combinations of systems. Solve360 provided the answers we needed I run a renewable energy company in the UK and have been trying to keep overheads down so we can stay very competitive, whilst providing an outstanding client-focussed service. Here's how we do it:

Solve works fantastically well. Where there is the odd glitch, the technical support is amazingly responsive using a very friendly forum approach. Clients can be invited in to view project "blogs" as they happen, but can be kept away from sensitive documents. This builds huge trust between us and the client. Its cheaper, faster and better than anything else on the market. But actually there isn't anything like it on the market.
Carl Benfield, Prescient Power Ltd
Innovative approach, real results. Solve360 marks the future of CRM and Project Management Continually amazed at what Solve360 can do. Instead of forcing people into little workflows that solve little problems (save 10 minutes here!) Solve360 lets you answer the big questions: What do I need right now to get the job done, how do I share that with my team and engage with my clients.
Graduate from Highrise, Capsule and other bush league systems for the real deal, get Solve360.
Adrian Sanders, VM Associates
I tried the simpler applications and Solve360 wins hands down. I have been using Solve360 for almost two years now. I have experimented with some of their popular competitors but nothing else comes close. If you are happy with a to-do list approach, then you might manage with some other PM and CRM services. You will likely end up paying more though, because other apps are not integrated. Every business needs to manage projects and people, I wonder why most other companies keep PM and CRM separate?
If you want a flexible yet comprehensive solution to managing your business processes then you will be hard-pressed to find a better solution than Solve360. It is completely customizable to work the way you do.
John Bardos, LMNOP
After using Solve360 for over a month, we're absolutely convinced this is the missing link! We're a small team with people across four states. Keeping everyone synchronized has always been a challenge. After switching CRM and project management systems several times in the last few years, we once again found ourselves looking for a better system. The hodgepodge of software apps, spreadsheets and disparate web utilities were no longer working for us - we needed something more integrated, more centralized, more collaborative, less "mechanical", something our staff would actually use and if we saved some cash in the process that was a bonus. Were we asking for too much? :)
Solve360 turned out to be EXACTLY what we have been looking for all these years. The flexibility of the system is perfect for our us because it allows us to set things up the way WE need it to be. The project blogs are amazing because they let us post branded project pages directly to our clients with ease. The tools available for reporting and viewing activity are tremendous and gives us everything we need and then some. On top of all that, the app has been fast and reliable.
Steve from Solve360 recommended Google Apps because it integrates nicely with the CRM and PM features of Solve360 and so here we are - very excited about dropping our old email system for Google Mail and using Google Docs so we can co-edit documents online.
We're not techies or risk takers. We're just business people trying to make it through the day. Thanks so much for making it so easy!
Kim Bouchard, Access Retail
Great App, Great Service I recently wrote a negative comment about Solve360 due to my frustration on a Google App bug. Today I am changing that because Solve360 has great potential with their application and their customer service is admirable. They responded during a weekend afternoon and made it work. it is organizations and products like this that are worth using and supporting. I am a Solve360 customer.
Héctor R. Barrera
Great product and a great team Solve360 is a very powerful contact, projects and a sales tool CRM all-in-one. Solve360 is fast to use, fast to get in to, and focuses on the essentials of the who and the what of your business. The interface is slick and lets you flick between tabs of people, companies and projects lighting fast, all still within a web browser. The competition look like clunky database front-ends compared to this
Chris Wood, Revector
I finally found the CRM that I've been looking for. After searching high and low, I have finally found Solve360 and am one month into deployment. I strongly recommend that folks look at this closely because it should not be overlooked! I tried ZOHO before and I couldn't fully deploy or get my staff to adopt it. It was complex, clunky, and buggy. Salesforce would have been a race to ever escalating costs, yikes! Solve360 staff has been super prompt and helpful in getting our company to learn the ropes. I love the different approach to CRM and the fresh attractive design and simplicity.
Richard Burbank, Evergreen Home Performance
I could not image working without 360 now that I've seen the proverbial "productivity light" Hands down - this is a fantastic application. I can not imagine ever working without this again. I thought I was organized and that I didn't drop balls until I started letting 360 do all the heavy lifting. It was only then that I realized how short I was falling. Solve 360 will help you work exactly how you wish you could if you had unlimited hours to devote to small tasks. Focus on the big picture - let this technology take care of the day to day.
Michael Dias, Art Bellies
Great CRM + Great Service As a new small business, we have experimented with a number of CRMs that are friendly (price-wise) to small businesses. Solve360 is by far the easiest to use and most functional. We love the "web 2.0" format and the versatility in tracking interactions. The fact that it syncs 2-ways with google contacts is ESSENTIAL and this is the only CRM that I've found that does it. Thanks, Solve360, for making our lives easier!

Easy import You can quickly import contacts from different systems including Excel, Outlook, Goldmine, Mac Address Book (vCard) and Highrise with no need to map fields. The import process goes the extra step to re-establish, new fields, categories and contact relationships to companies.
Excel lists for mail-merge and custom reports If you ever need to send data to Microsoft Excel, you'll find our export feature indispensable. With export, create spreadsheets from your Solve360 data directly from within Solve360 with one-click.
Complete your day-to-day work directly from an iPad™, Playbook™, or newer Android based tablet. You no longer need to be chained to a computer at your desk. Imagine accessing a client’s file from the car, a meeting room, walking down the street, or even in bed :) Keep the momentum flowing and squeeze out the rework and chatter by updating the team on a schedule, task or opportunity as soon as something changes. More on the iPad, touch/tablet application...
Lets not forget about your iPhone™, Droid™ or Blackberry™ Have quick access to the essentials such as your upcoming events, tasks and contacts wherever you are with this mobile version of Solve360 that's specially optimized for phones. More on the iPhone, mobile application ...
Mobile custom databases Custom fields and contextual fields are fully supported on our iPad and iPhone apps. Just imagine the possibilities here - a mobile database customized for your specific purpose. Go nuts with it!
No data lock-in Always available is a one-click export-all feature that provides ALL of your data in a standard format that can be imported into most spreadsheet or database applications. The exported data maintains the relationship of the data records (e.g. Contact > Task-list > Tasks). Included in the export file is a simple script to download all files and photos into a directory on your computer. Ask other vendors for that!
Link information with a point-and-click Get a complete view of your information by linking data records together using a simple point-and-click approach. For example, you can link contacts to projects, companies, project blogs, or even other contacts. Everything is connected and now you will know how.
Simple pages and lists not workflow A page and task-list based approach is a more fluid and agile way of getting things done and it is generic, independent of different systems, experience, cultures and other elements. Rather than detail a workflow that may be specific to each user at a point in time, propose tasks that will be highlighted and grouped and that can be seen and tackled by different users.
Built-in network sharing and security Securely sharing information is easy with Solve360. Windows and Mac users can access the same information simultaneously. And with the advanced security model in Solve360, you can determine what your users can do and see.
