Definition

What is contact management software?

Contact management software keeps the details of the people you deal with, and ties them to the companies they work for. In CIPHER CRM a contact always belongs to a lead or a customer, so you see everyone at a client in one place, with the main person clearly marked and a quick way to reach each of them.

Most clients are more than one person. CIPHER CRM lets you add as many contacts as you need to each lead or customer, and every contact has their own phone, email, job title, photo and any custom fields your trade needs. One contact is marked Primary and moves to the top of the list, so everyone knows who to call first. Next to each contact are one-click actions to call, email or open a WhatsApp chat, which is a link that opens the conversation for you, plus tap-to-copy for any detail. When a new name comes up in the record's chat, you can add them as a contact without leaving the conversation. When a lead becomes a customer, its contacts carry across, and each customer contact can get their own portal login. CIPHER CRM is made by CIPHER Craft Pvt. Ltd., founded in 2018, and is rated 4.8 out of 5.

Client contacts in CIPHER CRM
The problem

What happens without client contacts

You only have the owner's number, and when they are away nobody knows who else to call.

Contacts for one company are spread across personal phones, email threads and business cards.

Nobody is sure who the main contact is, so updates go to the wrong person.

Moving a number from the CRM into your phone means retyping it digit by digit.

When a lead becomes a customer, the people you were talking to have to be entered all over again.

Why CIPHER

Why client contacts are better in CIPHER

In most CRMs a contact is a separate list you have to link up yourself. We keep every person on the client record they belong to.

  • People live on the client

    Contacts sit on the lead or customer, so opening a client shows everyone you deal with there.

  • One primary, clearly marked

    The Primary contact is promoted to the top, which settles the question of who to call first.

  • Nothing retyped on conversion

    Contacts follow a lead into the customer record, so the relationship carries on without extra typing.

  • Their own portal login

    Each customer contact can have their own portal sign-in, so the accountant and the project lead each see what they need.

How it works

How client contacts work in CIPHER CRM

  1. Open the lead or customer

    Go to the client record and open its Contacts tab.

  2. Add the people

    Add each person with their phone, email, job title, photo and any custom fields you use.

  3. Mark the primary

    Choose one contact as Primary so they show at the top for everyone.

  4. Reach out in a click

    Use the call, email or WhatsApp action beside a contact, or tap a detail to copy it.

Can I store more than one contact for a customer in CIPHER CRM?

Yes. Every lead and customer can hold as many contacts as you need. Each contact has their own phone, email, job title, photo and custom fields, so you can keep the owner, the accounts team and the site manager on the same client record.

What is a primary contact?

The primary contact is the main person you deal with at a client. In CIPHER CRM you mark one contact as Primary, and they are shown at the top of the list, so anyone on your team knows who to reach first without having to ask.

Can I call or email a contact straight from CIPHER CRM?

Yes. Each contact has one-click actions to call, email or open a WhatsApp chat. WhatsApp opens a conversation with that person for you to type in, and any phone number or email address can be copied with a single tap.

Can I add my own fields to contacts?

Yes. Custom fields let you record anything your trade needs about a person, such as a preferred call time, the branch they manage or the product lines they buy. The fields are set up without any coding and appear on every contact.

What happens to contacts when a lead becomes a customer?

They move across with it.

Can I add a contact while chatting about a record?
