New in Highrise — our Small Business CRM
Lead Reports, Whom You’ve Talked To, And More
First and foremost, thank you.
We want you to know we are so thankful for you, our customers. For all of your passion about Highrise and excitement for new features. For all of your input on how to make Highrise better.
With so many priorities and distractions, we love providing something that makes business and life easier and we’re so thankful to have the opportunity to do so.
If you’ve been thinking about sharing some Highrise love and have a spare few minutes, we could use a review on Capterra to help get the word out. Or if you want to give some credit and get credit for your own Highrise account, you have a special referral link.
As always, if you need anything, whether Highrise or otherwise, please shout. We’d love to help.
Please note we plan on having a window of downtime (10–25 minutes) next week on Monday, Dec 11 at 7pm Central time. The exact date and time may change. Please keep your eye out for in-app announcements about the downtime. We know this isn’t ideal and interrupts your workflow but the maintenance will vastly improve our infrastructure to set us up for the future.
And we hope you are having a wonderful start to your holidays. Here are some new goodies inside Highrise for you :)
P.S. You can also follow more behind the scenes on how we design products, run the business, and try to just get through life at a YouTube channel I host.

Lead Activity Report — Track and report sales activity
When you’re managing a team, or you, yourself are involved in so many follow ups and daily activities, sometimes it’s easy to get lost in the flurry of activity. It’s great to take a step back on a regular basis (especially right around this time of year :) and see everything your team has accomplished.
For this reason, we launched some high level reporting about a year ago:
But since then we continue to receive requests like:
Can we export our activity to use in a monthly report?
or
I’d like a report on how our leads are progressing through our pipeline.
We are happy to announce Highrise now has an activity report as well….

Find Whom You’ve Talked To — More activity filter improvements
Awhile back, we redid the Contact Filters so you can see which leads or contacts HAVEN’T been contacted within a certain timeframe.
While that’s been well received, we’ve found ourselves (and others) also needing the reverse. So today, we’re announcing the ability to filter on contacts you HAVE contacted recently:

And coming soon — the ability to save filters:
