Less Annoying CRM keeps shipping the small stuff users have asked for, and one big workflow piece.
LACRM is in steady customer-driven iteration mode — task customization, rich text fields, undo on destructive actions, twelve small requested features in a single release. The standout from the past six months is automations, which finally gives the product a workflow primitive comparable to higher-end CRMs without abandoning its simplicity-first positioning.
NetHunt CRM ships workflow, integration, and automation depth as it builds toward a more self-contained sales OS.
NetHunt CRM, a Gmail-native CRM, has been shipping steadily across automation, integration, and data quality work. Recent releases add Aircall integration for call logging, statistical email tracking fields, a workflow engine redesign with retry/cancel/history capabilities, and auto-creation of contacts from Gmail compose and social channels. The changelog entries lack timestamps, making cadence difficult to assess, but the breadth of changes suggests a sustained shipping pace.
LACRM is in steady customer-driven iteration mode — task customization, rich text fields, undo on destructive actions, twelve small requested features in a single release. The standout from the past six months is automations, which finally gives the product a workflow primitive comparable to higher-end CRMs without abandoning its simplicity-first positioning.
The product is broadening from contact management into light workflow tooling — automations, update forms, deeper Zapier hooks — while continuing to invest in the unglamorous quality-of-life work (relative date filters, undo merge, group search). It is positioning against feature-rich competitors by being the CRM that respects the user's time, not by matching feature surface area.
Expect automations to grow more triggers and conditions over the next quarter, especially around forms and pipeline movement, since the foundation just landed and Zapier integration coverage is being filled in. The next user-visible bet is likely a reporting or dashboard improvement, since visibility hasn't moved while the workflow surface has.
NetHunt CRM, a Gmail-native CRM, has been shipping steadily across automation, integration, and data quality work. Recent releases add Aircall integration for call logging, statistical email tracking fields, a workflow engine redesign with retry/cancel/history capabilities, and auto-creation of contacts from Gmail compose and social channels. The changelog entries lack timestamps, making cadence difficult to assess, but the breadth of changes suggests a sustained shipping pace.
NetHunt is expanding outward from Gmail toward a broader sales operations platform: telephony integration (Aircall, Ringostat, Binotel), messenger support, improved webforms, and enhanced automations. The workflow redesign—which adds retry logic, cancellation controls, and run history—indicates the product is maturing its automation engine for teams running complex multi-step sales processes.
More telephony and communication integrations are likely given the pattern. The automation redesign suggests upcoming improvements to trigger logic or condition branching. Email deliverability tooling (custom SMTP, manual send delays) points toward continued investment in outreach capabilities.
