Getting Started with Companies in Metanow CRM
The Companies feature in Metanow CRM enables you to manage business relationships at the company level, moving beyond a focus on individual contacts. This functionality is especially useful for organizations that handle multiple contacts from the same company or require a unified view of all interactions and tasks associated with a business.
Feature 1: Create, Edit, and Save Company Details

You can easily add new companies to your database or update the details for existing records. This allows you to store essential information, including:
- Company Name
- Phone Number
- Email Address
- Website
- Address (including State, City, Postal Code, and Country)
- Description of the company
This ensures all critical business details are stored in a single, accessible location for your team.
Feature 2: Create and Manage Custom Fields

The Companies feature lets you create custom fields tailored to your specific business requirements. This flexibility enables you to track additional data points, such as:
- Industry type
- Revenue range
- Number of employees
Custom fields are simple to create, edit, and update, allowing you to personalize the information you track for each company.
Feature 3: Customize the List View

The List View provides a comprehensive snapshot of your companies. You can personalize this view using the Manage Fields option, which lets you decide which columns to display. For instance, you can include or exclude fields like "Website" or "State" to fit your needs. This customization ensures you see the most relevant information at a glance.
Feature 4: Advanced Filters

The Advanced Filters feature allows you to narrow down company records based on specific criteria. You can apply filters to standard fields like "City" and "Email," or to any custom fields you have created. This simplifies the process of finding exactly what you need, such as companies in a particular state or a specific industry.
Feature 5: Sorting

Effortlessly organize your data by sorting company records. You can sort by various fields, including "Company Name," "City," or "State," which helps you quickly find the companies most relevant to your current tasks.
Feature 6: Search Across Standard and Custom Fields

The Search functionality is robust, enabling you to find company records using any standard or custom field. For instance, you can search for companies by name, phone number, or specific custom field values, depending on the searchable fields configured for Companies. This feature ensures that finding the right information is always quick and easy, regardless of the size of your database.
