SalesForce. Very comprehensive. Call records, file sharing, activity tracker, outlook integration etc

Redtail is an excellent CRM for our industry. Requires some basic understanding of a database so you can utilize their reporting tools. It is very easy to use for tracking open activities and notes across a team. Salesforce is an entire other level. Significantly more expensive and infinitely more customizable. It’s likely more then most advisors need but if you want the highest level of tech and automation then Salesforce is the choice.

Redtail. Powerful and flexible!

My firm consists of 65 employees and 20ish producers. We use Salesforce. It’s a beast to set up, but is excellent for customized record management, integration with outlook/phones, and measuring KPIs on an organizational level.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA
