"User-Friendly and Efficient, with Helpful Support"
3/5
What do you like best about folk?

I find Folk to be very user-friendly; the layout is clear and simple, making it easy for me to maintain my contacts. Additionally, linking it with my calendar and email was easy, and it was easy to set up and include into my workflow. I use it frequently since it truly helps me stay organised, and the number of functions feels just appropriate for what I need without being overwhelming. Although I haven't needed customer service very much, when I have, the responses have been prompt and helpful. All things considered, Folk greatly improves the efficiency and smoothness of connection management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about folk?

There are a couple things I dislike about Folk, even though it's generally simple to use and works well with my calendar and email. Certain jobs may feel constrained because some aspects that I anticipated are either absent or not as strong as I had wanted. Even though the setup was simple, it took longer than I anticipated to customise several features, and I've occasionally wished the interface had a little more flexibility. Although I don't frequently contact customer service, when I did, the responses were not as quick as I would have liked. These minor annoyances appear more frequently than I would like because I use Folk frequently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lightweight CRM that gets it right"
4.5/5
What do you like best about folk?

Folk supports my needs for a lightweight CRM for a small boutique consultancy. It's easy to implement (there's no implementation actually). Customer support was swift when I had a few questions about how to integrate with the rest of my tech stack. I use it as my primary CRM - integrating with my LinkedIn and G Suite accounts. I love how enrichment is integrated, smooth, and doesn't require me to go to external tools.

I've used the email campaigns a few times and probably need to use them more often.

I'm integrating with my Kit.com and Savvycal accounts to feed new prospects into my CRM. Plenty of power that I haven't tapped into yet (but plan to) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about folk?

Integration with linkedin can be flaky sometimes - but that's to be expected with how hard Linkedin is trying to block third-party players, especially smaller ones like Folk...

I'd love my Linkedin DMs to be integrated and to enable some Linkedin Automation (a la Dux Soup or Dripify) .

I'd also love a richer integration with Kit - e.g. bring over tags.

Enrichment is nice when it works, but there are cases where it leaves you hoping for a stronger (full waterfall?) enrichment capability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless CRM with Great Integrations, But Email Sync Needs Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about folk?

I like Folk CRM is not complicated. It's seamless, provides integrations and custom features that make day-to-day operations easy. As a serial social entrepreneur, a well-integrated CRM is essential and Folk makes it easy to know my ecosystem of connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about folk?

When emails are sent through Folk CRM, it does not automatically show as sent in email account such as outlook. Also, the plugin is GREAT, but would be beneficial if the Linkedin extension was integrated more in an IOS feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Feels like a LinkedIn-native CRM"
5/5
What do you like best about folk?

It fits naturally into my workflow with the Chrome extension that lets me add and organize contacts straight from LinkedIn. The UI is clean, intuitive, and fast. Saving leads via one click on LinkedIn saves a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about folk?

Creating deals still requires some manual work. I can save leads to lists in Folk with one click, which is great - but would be even better if deals could be created automatically.

To be fair, this is common with most CRMs. But since Folk feels so lightweight and smooth for tracking people and companies, I wish the deal pipeline had that same seamless experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's an amazingly powerful and inutitive tool to pull together all my LinkedIn contacts and to funnel them into manageable buckets for my CRM. Enrichment is amazing as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"modern CRM that keeps our partnerships and VC pipeline organized"
5/5
What do you like best about folk?

Folk has become the central hub for our AI lab’s relationship management. It’s incredibly easy to organize partners, investors, and ongoing conversations without things slipping through the cracks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about folk?

Email integrations can feel limited at times, and occasionally syncing takes a moment longer than expected. None of these issues are deal-breakers, but they’re areas that could be improved as the platform grows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
