Automatically add Smart Data to contacts

Francis Marx · September 2020

It would be very useful if Pipedrive could automatically add Smart Data to contacts (rather than needing it to be done one by one. The other CRM that we are comparing against (Streak) has this feature.

BTW Smart Data is great!

Hi @Francis Marx , thank you for your feedback and we appreciate your honesty!

Right now there are no concrete short term plans to make these improvements. Unfortunately with many customers and requests and with limited development resources we need to prioritise and make choices what to deliver first. We will make sure however our team will consider your suggestion, I've forwarded your input internally to them, as I can see how it could be useful to perform those actions in bulk.

I'm afraid I can't make any promises, though

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

Follow What’s New and don’t miss any new releases.
Follow What's Planned to know what we're working on currently and what’s to come.

Hi Francis @Francis Marx - question for your comment on contact "Smart Data is great". I figured this feature would include scraping the internet for contact specific data, like email addresses, phone etc...but i understand it to be simply gathering social links and maybe address data into the page. am i missing something / what about it is valuable to you?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi Ines, Adding Smart Contact Data by one click/automatically has been constantly asked on forums in the last 3 years. When do you think the Pipedrive product team will schedule this? Without the ability to copy the smart contact data to the actual contact fields, this feature is pretty useless.
Respectfully,
Mark

A big up for this feature request. Without any ability to copy, fill and populate automatically the data from Smart Contact Data this feature is extremely time-consuming and, therefore, pretty useless. The other competitor's CRM can deliver this promise within a few minutes, even with a large database. Why bother keeping Pipedrive?
