Contacts

PortalProdigy allows you to maintain detailed records on individual contacts such as prospects, customers, members, employees, etc. The individual Contact Records serve not only as a place to record and lookup contact information such as addresses and phone numbers but also a link into other features related to individual contacts including event registration records, contact management, advocacy participation, contributions, purchases, exchanges and more. The Contact database further serves as a data merge source for message broadcasting via email, fax or printed communication features.

When you manage interactions on the internet you are managing relationships and conversations with people. So it makes sense that practically every PortalProdigy feature works in conjunction with the Contacts database. Contact information may be imported from external data sources, input manually via an Internet browser or collected online from website visitors. You decide how much and what information to collect based on the needs of your organization.

An assortment of relationships are maintained between contact records and other data components of the system such as Companies, Special Interests, Orders, Biographies, Registrations, Notes and Ticklers, etc. For back office administration, jumping quickly from one related record to another and to related lists and archives is simple and quick either by clicking on a link or submitting search criteria into efficient search templates.

  • Central database for creating, updating and reporting information on all sorts of contacts including visitors, users, members, employees, customers, vendors, prospects, regulators, constituents and staff.
