I would like to suggest that followers be added to the bulk edit feature for deals, people, and organizations.  This gives managers daily activity snapshots the following morning via email which is very useful.

    Hi @Matt Koziol , thank you for your input!

    While currently this isn't possible, you can add followers via import, which can maybe make at least one part o the process easier for you:

    That being said, I have forwarded your suggestion to our team so they can take it into consideration in future developments.

    Speaking of which, here’s how to stay on top of what’s coming down the line:

    Hi @Vincent Bultot !

    At the moment we have no news about this, as priorities and resource allocations for development have to be distributed and unfortunately not everything can be built or at least built in the near future. That being said, we appreciate your input and use it to give our teams thinking points to be considered in the future.

    I understand that the Pipedrive dev roadmap is pretty full, but not being able to bulk manage followers of people, deals and org's is making me consider switching to Hubspot. Managing the access rights of my remote sales team is just becoming too cumbersome. 
    Currently if I want a sales rep to follow a certain organisation I have to make them follower of the company, the deal and all the people involved.... this could be 5-8 steps on a recurring basis :-(

    This would be highly appreciated by us, too... even only displaying followers as a column in tables (and exporting them!) would help us a lot, as this would make modification through export/modify/import much easier than with the current "write only" mode.

    Hi Inês

    How do we go about 'removing' followers in bulk?

    Fully agree. Adding and removing of followers in bulk is a feature that is missing.

    Removing as you don't want to see all old colleagues names, years after they've left.

    Adding, for all reasons already mentioned.

    Agreed. This is not a new feature request but reporting an error or missing feature.
