"Recommended"
What do you like best about Dynamo Software?

As an asset management firm, we rely heavily on Dynamo Software for our client relationship management needs, and it has proven to be an excellent tool. The platform’s ability to streamline our communication is one of its biggest strengths. We can easily send out personalised emails to clients, ensuring each message is tailored and relevant, which enhances engagement.

The client tracking functionality is also highly valuable — we can log meeting notes in detail, keep records well organised, and store important client information in one central place. This ensures continuity and consistency across our team, especially when managing long-term client relationships.

Overall, Dynamo has helped improve both our efficiency and the quality of our client interactions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynamo Software?

Creating new templates can be more complicated than expected, with a learning curve that may require additional time or support. Additionally, the platform does not always remember login details, even when the “Remember Me for 60 Days” option is selected, which can be inconvenient for frequent users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Donna Parent of Dynamo Software

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback on how Dynamo Software is supporting your asset management firm. It's great to hear that our CRM capabilities are helping streamline your communications and enhance client engagement through personalized outreach. Also, thanks for sharing how features like email automation and meeting note tracking are contributing to your team’s efficiency and consistency.

It's also wonderful to hear that Dynamo's centralized data repository and relational data architecture are enabling your team to manage long-term client relationships with greater clarity and continuity. These are core strengths of Dynamo’s platform, and it’s rewarding to see them making a real impact.

Your feedback on template creation and login persistence is incredibly valuable. We understand that the template builder can have a learning curve, and we’re actively working to improve usability in upcoming releases.

"Helping us manage deal lifecycle activity from CRM to track record"
What do you like best about Dynamo Software?

The ability to capture data and relate it to other data which helps simplify our reporting needs and establishes a golden source of truth. In addition the platform is "open" and data can be ingested or shared with other platforms/sources. The platform allows us to also capture data from connected stakeholders who sit outside our organization meaning we can quickly obtain information and aggregate/report in near real time.

The platform is also flexible and we have customized it for many of our internal process that support our deal lifecycle.

We also enjoy working with the Dynamo team who we have regular touch points with. They are open to feedback and genuinely want us to succeed in our objectives and are continually investing in and improving the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynamo Software?

In comparison to some newer solutions in the market the user experience is dated.

Some issues where "fundamental" functionality falls short in todays modern world (e.g. Business Card Scanning in the mobile app having a low success rate) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Donna Parent of Dynamo Software

Thank you for your detailed and insightful review. We’re pleased to hear that Dynamo is helping your team establish a single source of truth and streamline your deal lifecycle—from CRM through to track record. Your recognition of our platform’s flexibility, open architecture, and ability to connect with external stakeholders is especially meaningful, as these are core pillars of our product vision.

We’re equally grateful for your kind words about our team. It’s our mission to be more than just a software provider—we aim to be a true partner in your success.

We also appreciate your candid feedback on areas for improvement. You’re absolutely right that user experience and modern functionality—like mobile business card scanning—are critical in today’s fast-paced environment. That’s why we’re excited to share that Dynamo v3.0 launching this fall, and it’s designed to directly address these needs.

With v3.0, you can expect:

>> A modern front-end that delivers a smoother, more intuitive experience across devices

>> Streamlined navigation and reduced clicks to help users move faster and more confidently through the platform

>> A more modular, scalable architecture that supports faster rollouts and easier configuration

We’re committed to continuous improvement and are excited for you to experience the next evolution of Dynamo. Thank you again for your partnership and for helping us shape the future of the platform.

"Helpful for data consolidation"
What do you like best about Dynamo Software?

Additional plug ins are the most useful, for example being able to mass upload and edit data via Excel and having the Outlook add ins which does not disrupt our usual workflows. Having the marketing campaign functions is useful and getting insights on clicks and opens helps us to create more targeted content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynamo Software?

The user interface is a bit outdated and makes it feel harder to onboard than it actually is. For example, products with more modern interfaces like Notion, Airtable make it feel easier to onboard even if it is actually more complicated. Sometimes it's hard to troubleshoot specific use cases just by googling and time consuming to go through all the blog posts off Dynamo's website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Donna Parent of Dynamo Software

Thanks so much for your review. It’s always good for us to hear about how the Outlook add-ins, Excel integration, and marketing campaigns are making your workflows smoother and your outreach smarter. It’s clear you’re using Dynamo the way it’s meant to be used: as a central hub to consolidate fragmented data into actionable intelligence. That “whole story” view of your investors is exactly what we strive to deliver, and we’re thrilled it’s working for you.

Thank you too for your honesty about the UI. It’s great to know that onboarding is easier than it looks, but we understand the importance of having a modern, intuitive experience. That’s why Dynamo 3.0 is focused on a ground-up redesign with a refreshed user interface, built to feel lighter, faster, and smarter. Expect easier navigation, streamlined troubleshooting, and AI-powered search to help you find answers and solve use cases effortlessly.

Thanks again for being part of the Dynamo community—we’re excited to bring you the next evolution of what our platform can do for you and your team. If you have any other feedback or need help, please don't hesitate to reach out to your Account Manager or Client Success Manager.

"Dynamo Client Review"
What do you like best about Dynamo Software?

DDA document loading and data scraping has been one of the biggest value adds to our organization. It has created numerous efficiencies for our team and allowed us to focus on more value-add functions at work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Dynamo Software?

I think one of our biggest pain points has been the questionnaire function. It has changed platforms a few times over the last few years and isn't super user friendly, requiring us to lean heavily on our client success team to get our surveys out. While we appreciate all the support from client service and the support team, we do like to try and be self sufficient where we can! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Donna Parent of Dynamo Software

Thank you for taking the time to post a review and for highlighting the value Dynamo has brought to your team—especially around Dynamo Data Automation (DDA) document loading and data scraping. We're thrilled to hear these capabilities have helped streamline your workflows and free up time for more strategic initiatives.

We also appreciate your candid feedback on the questionnaire functionality. You're absolutely right—self-sufficiency is key, and we recognize that the current experience has room for improvement. That’s why we’re excited to share that Dynamo v3.0 is on the horizon, and it’s built with exactly these kinds of needs in mind.

Dynamo v3.0 introduces a modernized, intuitive interface and a reimagined user experience across the platform. One of our core goals is to empower users with enhanced self-service capabilities—including a more stable, user-friendly approach to surveys and questionnaires. With a modular design, smarter automation, and a best-in-class front-end, Dynamo v3.0 is designed to reduce reliance on support and give you more control over your processes.

Thanks again for your contribution and being a valuable member of our Dynamo community!
