I loved Cobook, which started as Mac app initially with a 2-way iCloud-contacts sync. When FullContact acquired Cobook, the sync became only 1-way from iCloud to FullContact. Is there a way to sync FullContact contacts back to iCloud contact book?(haven't checked in a while)
@nikitakorotaev Sync for iCloud is bidirectional -- if you're having issues, please send a note to support@fullcontact.com and let us take a look.
@nikitakorotaev We released support for 2-way iCloud sync in September of last year. If you connect your iCloud account to FullContact, we will provide the 2-way sync given the account is set to "Sync" in Settings. Please note that we don't support syncing with iCloud accounts that have 2-factor authentication yet.
@laurenlperfors our iCloud sync is indeed a 2-way contact and tag sync. Thanks!
HUGE fan of FullContact. I used the free trial for a few months, and as I've spent more time in the VC world I've realized that my network is my most valuable asset. Spending the $ on the premium account is 100% worth it, my contacts are cleaned and synced across gmail, icloud, etc. I also use the tags to keep track of people searching for jobs, potential LPs, etc.
@fletchrichman - thanks for your endorsement! We love hearing from happy customers!
@nbrempel - so glad you found us! We offer free concierge onboarding if you'd like to understand how to fully benefit from FullContact - sign up here: https://www.schedulicity.com/sch... - thanks!
I LOVE FullContact. I discovered it initially through Product Hunt and it's transformed my contact management, making it seamless to sync just the contacts I want across various business and personal accounts. I tag my contacts with the location, type of work they do, and any relevant brands so I can pull up, for example, people who founded tech companies who live in SF who worked at Google in a single command. I use the gmail extension and am enjoying the native app so far.
@gillianim - we appreciate your endorsement! We love to hear from our happy customers!
Will it take care of the pesky issue around imessage contacts appearing differently between mobile and desktop imessage?
@datarade - it should! You'll want to make sure you have iCloud connected to FullContact and set iCloud as the source for syncing contacts between devices / accounts connected to FullContact. If for some reason after getting FullContact and iCloud setup it's not working as expected, our Customer Success team would be happy to help! You can reach them via email - support@fullcontact.com. Thanks!
FINALLY! Solves so many problems for me in terms of address book cleanup and processing.
FullContact has always been the best way to manage your contacts — but, it has been mostly limited to the web and mobile. Now that it is on the desktop, I can leverage functionality like selecting multiple contact records quickly so I can edit, merge, update, or delete the records in batch.
This is a great addition to an already great service. FullContact is by far the best contact management solution available and now it’s available on my desktop!
Hi @steveraffner - we offer a basic free plan as well - you can store up to 5,000 contacts and sync one account (Google, iCloud, or Exchange). You are welcome to connect more than one account but the information will only two-way sync with your account in the "Sync" mode. Hope that helps! Here is more information about our pricing options: https://www.fullcontact.com/apps.... Happy to answer any other questions you may have!
@carlzeta - glad it's working well for you. I'm sorry to hear you are disappointed with our pricing. We offer a free basic plan in addition to our paid plan (https://www.fullcontact.com/apps...). Many users are looking to sync two or more sources (Google, iCloud, Exchange) together, which can be labor intensive on our servers. For this reason, the multiple sync is currently a paying feature only. Our Premium users find a ton of value of us doing the work to have a unified contact list across accounts and devices regardless of where changes are made. In the future, we are considering adding an additional pricing tier for people who are using less of the current feature set. Thanks again for providing your feedback!
@jessicahnolan thx for the reply, yes i'm using the premium for all services to be synced, but still. ;)
I'm Head of Product @ FullContact. We are so excited to launch our Mac app today! The app has unique features specifically designed for power-users trying to manage their contacts. We believe we've even made it enjoyable to view and update your contacts. ;)
Check out how it works:
The magic of our product is that we provide a more comprehensive view of your contacts with just an email address. We look for public information like their social networks (Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.) job title, location, photos, and more. We help you know your network better.
Let us know what you think!
@jessicahnolan is there a 2-way google contacts sync enabled? Once I cleaned my contacts / duplicates on your mac app, I'd like my google contacts to be properly organized so it spreads everywhere (iOS, etc).
@ilan if you connect your Google account to FullContact and set it to "Sync", your Unified contacts will sync 2-way. Keep in mind that we allow one account to be set to sync on our free plan. If you'd like to sync multiple accounts together to have a unified list, you'll need to upgrade to our Premium plan. On our Premium plan you can unify up to 5 different accounts (Googe, iCloud, and/or Exchange) so that if you make a change in one place, it will sync back to all the other connected places. I hope that helps!
@jessicahnolan Correct me if I am wrong. Our contacts will be stored in your server which will be served to your premium customers via your API. Am I right?
@siva7891 We do not provide your private data to our API customers - here's a link to our privacy policy: https://www.fullcontact.com/priv...
App is a little slow at launch but love FullContact and excited to watch new features roll out.
@swinterroth - I'm sorry to hear that you've experienced slowness with the app. Please do us a favor and use the "Send Feedback..." option from the FullContact menu to send us your logs. We want to investigate ASAP to resolve any possible issues. Thanks for your support of FullContact! We are excited to continue to develop new features for this product! Let us know what you'd like to see next! :)
Is this paid? I seem to read people saying its kind of pricy and you download it for free
@andrealbuq94 - we offer a free basic plan in addition to our paid plan (https://www.fullcontact.com/apps...). Our basic plan allows one account to be set to 2-way sync as well as storage of up to 5,000 contacts. Our Premium users find a ton of value in our multiple sync features where we sync two or more Google, iCloud, or Exchange accounts together and keep them in sync regardless of where changes are made. Additionally, our Premium plan offers a unique feature called Email Signatures where users can opt-in to have us capture contact information from email signature blocks in Gmail and use this to update or create new contacts in FullContact. This is a huge time saver for many people! If you're interested in learning more, our Customer Success team offers free concierge onboarding - https://www.schedulicity.com/sch....
@swinterroth is correct! That's one of the most compelling features of our product @udimov - we keep all your contacts from different accounts and devices in sync. If you need any help getting setup, I encourage you to sign-up for our free concierge onboarding that is available to all FullContact users (even those on our basic free plan!) - https://www.schedulicity.com/sch...
@udimov Hi Dmitrii the password is only required if you would like to sync your iCloud contacts to FullContact. Otherwise it is not required.
@udimov To be clear, we don't hold on to your password, we exchange it for a token to interact with iCloud. We'll be supporting iCloud app-specific passwords soon.
@samir_doshi - awesome, thanks for the positive feedback! My address book was a mess before FullContact. :)
