Been looking at CRM options for my lawncare business. People here love to recommend Jobber, but I have some concerns about the bloat. I doubt I'll need GPS tracking, payroll management, or crew dispatch as someone that runs the work solo lol. Also checked out Housecall Pro, but it looks like it has the same issues as Jobber. But I have no experience with CRMs, so if I'm wrong please tell me.
Then I started to look into lightweight options, stuff like YardBook, GorillaDesk, Tofu which seemed to be built with solo operators in mind. So yeah, I'm thinking I'd need a suggestion from this side instead of the bigger side. But again, I have no prior experience with looking for CRMs, knowing what makes them better than the other, or if I even need a CRM to begin with. Afterall, I've managed just fine so far without, but I'm more on the side of feeling like I've scaled enough to need this.
I'm open to any suggestions as long as it has basic features like scheduling, client tracking, and invoicing. Let me know if I'm wrong about the CRMs I've mentioned, or if you have any straight recommendations. Thanks guys!
I'm looking for 5-10 advanced Slant users. My linkedin connection volume is pretty high and i'm trying to automate a lot of processes and I'm not 100% the best process flow.
I've already built a killer chrome extension that exports Sales Nav profiles directly into Slant. It works great. I'm trying to refine my internal Slant process workflow now and I'm looking for help.
Anyone want to jump on a zoom and chat for 20-30 minutes about Slant?
Progress Software has told ShareFile customers to shut down the Windows servers running their Storage Zone Controllers, confirming to The Hacker News that it is responding to a "credible external security threat."
The company has temporarily disabled access to the affected accounts, a step it says it took "out of an abundance of caution" while it works with internal and external security
Unknown threat actors compromised the Injective Labs SDK project's GitHub repository and leveraged it to publish a malicious package on the npm registry to steal cryptocurrency wallet private keys and mnemonic seed phrases.
The compromised version, @injectivelabs/[email protected], came embedded with fake telemetry functionality that exfiltrated data from cryptocurrency wallets. The version was
Researchers at firmware security firm Binarly have found six new flaws in U-Boot, the small program that starts up hardware as varied as home routers, smart cameras, and the management chips inside data-center servers.
Four of the bugs can crash a device. The other two could let an attacker who slips a malicious image in front of the bootloader run their own code, before the device
A group of coworkers and I have left our jobs to open our own accounting firm (We were all working in the accounting field previously) and we're looking into alternatives to the programs we've been using the past few years at our old place of employment.
The program we want to replace most out of all of them is Goldmine as Goldmine has been an absolute nightmare for us in the past.
We mainly used it to schedule appointments and as a logging system for our client files. So, that's what we're mainly looking for.
In terms of logging client files, we just need a system that lets us enter the names and phone numbers of clients and allows us to log the date they brought their paperwork in and who their file was given to within our office. Having a program to log files like this makes it easier for us to quickly look up who has each client's file in and when their paperwork was dropped off.
What we don't want:
- Nothing too complicated, we'd prefer to keep things as user friendly as possible
- Nothing too expensive, this is a new business and a lot of the other programs we need are not cheap lol
- No AI. We'd like to keep client info as secure as possible. We also like to avoid Gen AI as much as possible for moral and ethical reasons.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!
Dear redditors, would you use a CRM that has lead-generation with AI automation? Like basically CRM that searches for potential clients, stores them as leads, evaluates whether they are worth contacting, and helps prepare a personalized offer.
Researchers at Ledger's Donjon security team have shown that a precisely timed laser pulse, aimed at the chip inside a Tangem crypto wallet card, can reset the card's password to anything the attacker picks.
No old password. No backup card. Once it is reset, whoever did it controls the wallet and can move the coins out.
This is not an emergency for most owners. The attack needs
Details have emerged about three now-patched security flaws in the OpenClaw personal artificial intelligence (AI) assistant that, if successfully exploited, could enable credential theft, privilege escalation, and arbitrary code execution on the host.

Chinese cybersecurity company QiAnXin said that while the threat cluster may appear like a low-sophistication, high-activity operation that propagates malware via counterfeit installers using SEO poisoning techniques, it belies their true organizational
