We know that a large part of your day-to-day work revolves around your inbox, which is why ForceManager offers solutions to help manage this process more efficiently, as it is our ForceManager add-in for Microsoft Outlook.

This add-in allows you to create records in your CRM directly from your Outlook inbox. You can save only the emails of interest from customers, prospects, partners, etc., in your ForceManager activities, even if email synchronization is disabled.

How can I get and install the Add-in?

In the article ForceManager inside Microsoft Outlook, we show you how to do it so you can start taking advantage of its benefits. You can also install it directly by clicking the following button:

Note: If the "Save Email" button is not visible, it means that the selected email has already been saved.

4. Review the history: Once you have saved the email, you can view it in the history by clicking on it, where you will find its details, including the date, subject, body, account name, owner, and contact.

The following notification will appear if the email was saved using the add-in:

"This email was saved using the ForceManager CRM add-in for Microsoft Outlook".
