How can I use Veloxity CRM?
Learn how to use the main features in Veloxity CRM:
Name | Description |
---|---|
Accounts |
Accounts represent the companies with which you have a relationship. These companies are often customers or prospective customers. Accounts could also include vendors, business partners, and non-business organizations such as government, healthcare, and education. Accounts are the places where your Contacts work. Record the businesses with which you have a relationship under Accounts. |
Activities |
Activities are the actions you perform throughout the sales process. Activities function as your daily todo list. |
Calendar |
Calendar View visualizes your activities in a calendar format. Veloxity Calendar integrates with Google Calendar allowing you to see all of your activities in one place. |
Charts |
A Chart is a visual representation of data. Veloxity has two main charting features: Chart Builder and Chart Viewer. |
Chart Builder |
Chart Builder allows you to easily manage saved charts, and/or create new charts from any data table. Chart Builder is represented by the pie chart in the upper right corner of the screen. |
Chart Viewer |
Chart Viewer allows you to easily view specific saved charts related to the data view. In Chart View, the chart type is preconfigured. You cannot change the chart type. The search backing the Chart View can be changed by clicking the Chart Title. |
Contact Roles |
Contact Roles allow you to define the role a contact plays in a specific opportunity. The role may be different than their job title. |
Contacts |
Contacts are people. Contacts are often involved in the purchasing of your product. Contacts are often related to Accounts and Opportunities. |
Data Tables |
Data is organized into Data Tables. A Data Table is composed of Records (rows) and Fields (columns) that hold Data. Each Data Table holds Data about a different, but related, subject. |
Duplicate Forecast |
Sales Forecasts display your estimated sales income for a given time period based upon Sales Stage, Probability, and Opportunity Close Date. Duplicate Forecast allows you to quickly apply a previous Sales Forecast to a current or future time period. |
Send and receive email within Veloxity. | |
Email and Calendar Setup |

Favorites |

Hub |
The Hub is your Veloxity Home Page. Use the Hub to quickly access the information you need from a single view. |
Inbox |
Veloxity Inbox integrates your Email with Veloxity CRM's innovative inbox features designed to save time and increase productivity. |
Leads |
A Lead is a prospective sales opportunity. Leads come in through many different sources: trade shows, web forms, conversations. The first step in the sales process is to figure out if a Lead is a legitimate sales opportunity. To do this, a Lead is nurtured through the Lead Qualification Process. Leads you wish to engage with are converted into Opportunities. Leads that are not a good fit for your business are filtered out. The Lead Record is a temporary record. The length of time a Lead stays active in your system depends on your sales cycle. |
Linked Records |
Linked Records are individual data records that show up as a link in the Linked Records Panel. Linked Records visually connect related data from a single record view without duplicating information. |
Mobile CRM |
Packed with everything you might need while on the road, Veloxity Mobile CRM offers you instant access to opportunity management, activities, communication tracking, customer data, and your sales pipeline from a phone or tablet. Manage Accounts, Activities, Contacts, Leads, and Opportunities from anywhere. |

Opportunities |
An Opportunity represents a potential sale to a qualified prospect that you are working to close. |
Opportunity Kanban |
The Opportunity Kanban allows you to visually track your Opportunities through each stage of the sales pipeline. Each of your Opportunities is represented by a tile that moves from left to right through each stage of your sales process. The Opportunity Kanban is made up of a series of different sales stages that form the sales pipeline. |
