For me, using Dynamo to manage my finances and business operations has been a game-changer. The platform provides a full range of functions, including document management, contact management, investor reporting, client portal, real estate administration, lead management, investment tracking, and accounting, that are tailored to my particular needs. My process has been substantially improved and the need for additional systems has been removed thanks to the smooth connectivity between these components. I like the platform's user-friendly interface and simple navigation since they make it simple for me to get about and find the information I need. I was able to adapt Dynamo to my particular workflows and requirements because to the customization possibilities. I can now make data-driven decisions and learn a lot about my investments and business operations thanks to the powerful reporting and analytics features. Overall, Dynamo has exceeded my expectations and has given me the tools and functionality I need to successfully manage my investments.

Pros

I'm excited to discuss my favorite aspects of Dynamo Software. Its broad and integrated nature is, in my opinion, its most notable aspect. I can access a variety of capabilities with Dynamo, including accounting, document management, contact management, investor reporting, client portal, real estate management, lead management, and real estate administration, all on a one platform. My efficiency has increased dramatically as a result of this centralized strategy, which does away with the necessity for many ad hoc systems or manual procedures. Everything being in one location makes it easy for me to switch between modules, have access to important data, and complete tasks. The user experience is further improved by the user-friendly design and simple navigation. Additionally, Dynamo's flexibility to modify and adapt the platform to my particular specifications has been priceless in enabling me to modify it to fit my particular processes and demands.

Cons

Thus far, my experience with Dynamo has been very positive and I have not encountered any issues or concerns.

Best CRM tool

Reviewed on 23/01/2023

Pros

Overall the CRMs I have used I prefer Dynamo. The software is easy to use and easily customized and automatically syncs mostly with outlook.

Cons

There is nothing to dislike as things are right now. Among all the CRMs in the firm, the software has been the best for me as a user.

I would be a big fan if it would just work faster.

Reviewed on 28/06/2018

Pros

Love all the tagging that is possible and the integration with Outlook. Love the signature parsing functionality.

Cons

Often very slow, which is frustrating in a fast-paced industry. Long lags. Seems like something that could be fixed by the company.

Response from Dynamo Software

We love to hear about clients benefitting from our seamless outlook integration and ability to create contacts with ease! We are sorry you have been experiencing speed issues, this is not usually a case reported by our clients. There are a number of things that can cause speed issues. The best way to solve this is to reach out to your Client Service Representative to explore this issue further.

Pros

Fairly user-friendly. More functionality that I will ever need but nice to know it's there!
Customer support and follow-up is amazing.

Cons

Could be a little more intuitive to find particular things. Or a way to get quick answers. Most importantly, I wish it could go back and capture historically through Outlook emails like competitors can!

Response from Dynamo Software

Thanks for the awesome review! We strive to ensure our Client Service team is available to readily help with any questions. Our team is always working to improve our training camp materials and add easily accessible assistance within Clienteer. We can in fact capture historical emails from Outlook using our historical automated e-mail filing process. Please reach out to your Client Service Representative for more details on this.

Reviewed on 28/06/2018

Pros

It's always evolving based on client feedback, which is great! We set our version up to match our exact needs and it's been very helpful.

Cons

How clicking something opens a new tab each time, resulting in LOTS of open tabs! Maybe a choice of opening a new tab or replacing the current one would be helpful.

Response from Dynamo Software

We definitely understand with an ever-changing world how important the ability to customize on the fly can be! We love getting suggestions from our clients as it helps us to build industry best practices into our software. We recognize the challenges of having too many tabs open which is why if you right click on an existing tab you can close all open tabs but the one you are currently on. If you reach out to the Client Service team, we would be happy to show you how it works!

Must-Have Software for Hedge Funds

Reviewed on 21/04/2019

Pros

Customer Service team is very responsive to any requests or questions we've had when using. Love the ability to have our LP and investor information all centralized in one location across the firm. In a fast-paced industry, we can often lose track of critical information that is the difference in an investment--Clienteer solves that issue for us.

Cons

As with most software, takes a short while to get used to. Also occasionally have speed issues, but would think that this occurs more so on our company's end.

Great Financial Tracking Software for Investor Relations

Reviewed on 30/10/2018

Pros

I use Clienteer because this establishes my relationship with my clients. The software has a great platform designed for people like me and others who work in hedge funds & banking institutions who need help in dealing with investor relations and other related finance administration. This software lets me view my client’s portfolios and track our developments.

Cons

This has happened to me a couple of times that the software lags and I’ve had to restart my computer each time. It worked fine after that and didn’t encounter this problem anymore.

Our overall Dynamo experience has collaborative. We staged our implementation in phases starting with CRM first. We continue to deploy more & more features, explore modules and are constantly considering better ways to do our day to day tasks. Dynamo support has been good whether tackling our questions about best practices, helping to guide us on new features, provide training or answering our what if or how to questions. We have experienced good dialogue and partnership in addressing our concerns.

Pros

We implemented Dynamo after years of our growing team being unable to 'find our stuff' on a network drive full of hundreds of folders that were poorly organized, named or maintained. Our team decided to start looking for a system to organize our data. That search started as a CRM system search and then evolved as we completed searches and demos to explore also portfolio management and reporting. Our reporting had solely been excel based and with significant history to store, we were tasking excel to serve essentially as a database. With each system/vendor we reviewed, the more capabilities we started to consider. Dynamo was appealing as it served to answer a number of challenges we were facing and because it was integrated, we weren't trying to fit a bunch of different systems/software together to make everything work nicely together.

Cons

Initially the reporting was less robust. This has changed dramatically and the reporting and dashboards are robust and dynamic. The shift from Tableau reporting to Power BI has really improved the quality of reporting.

We really enjoy working with the Dynamo team. The team is very forward thinking and service oriented. We have collaborated with Dynamo a lot to build new features and functionality with the system. The team always communicates deadlines and assists in any way possible with implementation.

Pros

Dynamo Software is a one stop solution for LPs. It has a great CRM platform as well as a fantastic portfolio management solution. You don't need to worry about connecting two systems together.

Cons

Dynamo did not have a connector to administrators such as State Street. However, we worked with Dynamo to build a file transfer and now cash transactions and reconciliations with our administrator are automated.

Our experience with Dynamo has been exceptional. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] did a great job onboarding us and building some finds or reports on his own. The continued support has also been exceptional. It is nice to know that if we need help there is a team at Dynamo to continue with the help and support we need.

Pros

There are several easy ways to get data in. Manual entry is easy and not time consuming. I love the many different ways data can be loaded into the database.

Cons

We are a firm that has clients with a lot of Transfers of Interest. This and the commitment/ownership are my biggest issues with the software. I would also say while it is my least favorite it is still way easier than our old system.

We have been using Dynamo for the second time, second organization for over 10 years. I feel all employees at Dynamo are very versed in the platform, knowledgeable and are at your reach at any time.

Pros

I used Dynamo at a previous employer and liked it so much I implemented it at GMF.

Reviewed on 17/03/2018

Pros

I have used a few CRMs throughout my career and Dynamo is the most user friendly and easily customizable of the lot. Being able to create fields and views without having to submit service tickets is immensely valuable in a rapidly growing business. I have been able to build our Dynamo tenant to most accurately reflect our unique business model instead of shoehorning into a preset box.

Cons

Our business model employs a significant number of transfers within and across entities. This has been my biggest pain point as the transfer process continues to change. I would love to have a process by which we could transfer from Investor Account A in Fund X to Investor Account B in Fund Y in a single step.

Seven Bridges has used the WebVision platoform for 5+ years and has always had a positive experience. Customer rep. is our main point of contact has always been extremely helpful.

Pros

Provides Seven Bridges client easy access to documents we share with them, plus the dynamic aspects of our website allows them to see their asset allocation summary and details. Additionally the Admin functions and MFA are very useful as an adminstrator of the platform.

As discussed with Erol Dusi it would be beneficial if the portal allowed our internal Web Services to be called from the Web Vision portal and rendered through JavaScript/HTML5 in some generic manner. Also easier use on mobile devices would be extremely helpful.

The small company feel makes everything feel customized, from the software to the client service. It's nice to be included in the dialogue with regards to future software updates.

Having all of our investor data and correspondence in one place has been a game-changer for us. Previously, we were using multiple spreadsheets and regular email to manage our investor relationships. Knowing all information and contact with investor is in one place allows me to sleep at night. Also, love the reporting and group email features.
