Junxure is customer relationship management (CRM) software supporting financial advisors with growth as well as helping manage advisory businesses, owned and supported by AdvisorEngine since the January 2018 acquisition.
Backstop makes planning and selecting the portfolio efficiently. There is a candid assistance in matters of resource utilization. Moreso, Backstop has a cost accounting notion, which makes the company control the expenses they make. Finally, Backstop has classical research procedures where analysis and decisions arrive after extensive assistance and evaluations.
Junxure has proven to be the best thing for our company, especially during COVID-19 and quarantine. We are all able to work from home and access all our clients' data online. We can assign tasks to each other without having to be in the same office space. Productivity and growth increased, and we have been able to focus more on our clients and their needs.
Clients can log in to view their investment statements. This is a timesaving benefit, as clients won't have to ask you every time they want to see how their money is performing. Being able to self-service will make your clients feel more in control of their money.
Being cloud-based means that the workflow monitor can be accessed anytime, anywhere. Nobody will forget important tasks as everything is being tracked. This allows staff to work from home and communicate with other employees with ease.
The pending action screen will allow you to reduce your to-do list and keep it in one central, accessible place. Workflow will see a major improvement!
Junxure is a wonderful tool and is easy to use. Once you get your team to work with Junxure more than they do chat, email etc., it will work well and save a lot of time.
Backstop support is fantastic. They always pick up the phone without a wait and are highly knowledgeable, I rarely need more than 5 minutes to fix an issue.
There are thousands of CRMs available in 2018. Junxure is one of the greats. You could use a non-financial-industry specific CRM, but I don't encourage it. Redtail and Wealthbox are great options as well, but often times the one available to you is going to be decided by your BD. If you are an RIA, I would check out their integrations pages and find out what other systems you already use. Especially if you BD uses a proprietary custodian. They may only be integrated with one CRM. Junxure is up there with the big boys, and you will be delighted by all the features. It's hard to say it's "the best", but only because everyone's firm needs are different. As the office tech guy, I beg that you don't throw a bad system at your admins without allowing them to vet for it themselves. Salespeople will tell you anything to get your business.
It has saved time by automatically capturing emails.
It has created efficiency from having to keep track of tasks manually or keeping power documents around.
It’s definitely worth the cost through all of the efficiency our firm gains. The ability to send work actions to teammates depending on their responsibilities is greatly helpful!
