Rapportive can be accurately defined as a plug-in that gives Gmail CRM capabilities. How? Quite easily.
You procure and install the plug-in, and whenever you receive an e-mail from that point onwards the right-hand side of the screen will be employed to display information about the sender. You can figure out if you actually know him or not, and also whether or not the industry he is employed in has anything to do with yours.
The CRM aspect itself is strengthened by the fact that you can make notes on each profile. You can effectively label this individual as “Mr. Moneybags”, the other as “Mr. Stingy” and add any other kind of information you fancy. Whatever lets you better-manage your contacts can be attached to the visualization of anybody’s profile.
It goes without saying that the plug-in can be downloaded at no cost. If the description above sounded good and it piqued your interest, downloading and installing it is just one click away. Personally, I find it an interesting development and I look forwards to testing it further on in the days to come.
