Highrise: Contact Manager

Posted in: Church Tech, Tech

Finally! A high-quality contact manager for the web that doesn’t suck. It’s put out by the same people that brough us Campfire, Backpack, and Basecamp: 37Signals, and it’s called Highrise. It’s the same overall format as the other program, so it’s somewhat familiar out the gate. And it handles tasks seamlessly with contacts as well.

What can we use it for? Of course there are the usual contact uses: database of other pastors, database of congregants, etc; but with Highrise, you can keep track of phone calls, visitations, etc. I can see it in any ministerial context, really, such as coaching or even youth ministry. 

It’s really a great tool, and I’m excited and relieved at the same time. You can find it here: highrisehq.com

We make surfing apparel in California, and we are using Highrise to manage our interns as they contact our network of bloggers to keep them current on our clothing line. It’s a great tool! Well worth the review. : )

Hey Robb:

Not sure how you found this site, but I love your shirts. I’m a subscriber to your blog, and love the March giveaways! Thanks! When I order a shirt from you the next time, I’ll do a review for you guys.

Thanks Derek!

We have some exciting things coming up, since you’ve subscribed to our blog you’ll hear it first there, but here’s a preview: We’re putting together some specially designed tees next month to raise awareness for breast cancer and we’re donating the proceeds to the cause. We’re calling the program ChariTees. Pretty exciting stuff!

We would love it if you would review our site, let me know if there’s anything I can do for ya.

BTW, I stumbled across your blog through the testimonial you have linked up on the HighRise site. : )
