The functionality servers a lot of different uses. > > **Cons**: The ease of use and custom reporting is not intuitive and locating specific charts and data sets can sometimes be difficult. > > The wide range of functionality is a good solution for various needs across different departments. ----- ### "Backstop Review of Investor Relations module" — 4.0/5 > **Ajay** | *10 April 2023* | Investment Management Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very easy to use product and transition from legacy applications has been quite easy for all our Advisors and Admins. Their training program and help tools are excellent.Very customizable product > > **Cons**: While APIs are for all out of box data integration, it can be better exposed with custom data fields specific to each client > > Overall, great saas software with flexibility for users and management ----- ### "Mostly for reporting, needs improvement on analysis" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *9 May 2019* | Investment Management Software | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: Strong in terms of accounting and tracking capeabilities > > **Cons**: Interface is dated and it is not very strong on the investment analysis side. Comparability / plugins in excel often cause issues > > Experience is overall positive, although the company does have serious issues that it needs to address to compete with other investment analysis softwares that exist. Interface / plugins need work. ----- ### "Backstop Review" — 4.0/5 > **Jeannine** | *8 March 2023* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Valuable calculations and contact management > > **Cons**: Lack of flexibility in the UI. Limited integration between contact data and account data. ----- ### "Ready-to-use CRM with sensible extensibility" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *19 July 2018* | Financial Services Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Backstop hits the sweet spot between features and extensibility. Out of the box, the platform meets 70-80% of our business requirements. Our firm fortunately has the know-how to use API and Excel Toolkit (ETK) to cover the last mile. Most importantly, the product team listens to its customers and continually enhances the platform based on our input. You would unlikely get such feedback loops from the likes of Salesforce, Oracle or Microsoft. > > **Cons**: Compared to a CRM startup that has unlimited flexibility to innovate, Backstop may seem more mature and risk-averse. The UI/UX seems a little dated, and mobile-responsiveness and mobile app have room for improvements. The labeling of different data entry screens should be more standardized as well. > > A cloud-based CRM to centrally store business contacts, collaterals, qualitative and quantitative data and share amongst different departments. Combing Report Builder, Excel Toolkit and API allows end-users to self-serve business intelligence. ----- Page: 1 / 3\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.in/software/169054/backstop?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.in/software/169054/backstop) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
