Key takeaways
- Contact management software in Singapore should do four things: capture every enquiry, give each one an owner, hold the history, and make follow-up happen on a date.
- Tallium AI CRM is a flat $99 USD per month for the whole workspace, with unlimited users included.
- Most teams are live the same day. Import contacts, rename the stages, start moving deals.
- The honest alternative for many teams is a shared inbox, and it works until two people need the same live view at once.
- Teams in Singapore sell largely over email, and enquiries from there are captured as leads with the source recorded.
- Pipeline, conversion and win-rate reporting are included rather than gated behind a higher tier.
The symptoms that mean you have outgrown your setup
1. Nobody can answer the simple question of when this client was last spoken to and about what. 2. The customer list lives in phone contacts, an old spreadsheet and a WhatsApp group, and none of them agree. 3. Duplicate records mean the same client gets contacted twice with different offers.
Import and de-duplicate
Bring the spreadsheet and phone exports in as CSV, merge duplicates once, and work from a single list from then on.
People and companies, linked
Contacts belong to companies, so you can see everyone you deal with at an account and every deal attached to it. That distinction is what stops a business relationship being reduced to one mobile number.
A timeline that holds context
Calls, notes, emails, meetings and status changes stack on the record in order. The answer to when did we last speak takes a second, not a search through chat history.
How this works for businesses in Singapore
What works in Singapore is not always what the software assumes. Singapore SMEs are small in headcount but sell regionally across ASEAN, so a pipeline that tracks deals in several countries from one workspace is worth more than local territory features. Tallium AI CRM is set up for that: enquiries arriving over email are captured as leads with the source recorded, deal values are entered in the numbers your team quotes in SGD, and the whole team, from a two-person Pte Ltd to a forty-person operation across Singapore, works from the same records at one flat price. Common verticals here, including IT and software, logistics and professional services, all run on the same default pipeline with the stage names changed once.
What to check before you buy
Three questions decide whether a CRM survives past month two in Singapore, and none of them are on a feature grid. Can the least technical person on the team use it without training. Does it capture leads from the channel you actually sell on, which Singapore usually means email. And does the price stay the same when you hire, or does every new salesperson start a procurement conversation. Feature depth is easy to buy and hard to adopt. Adoption is the whole game.
Tallium AI CRM vs running leads from a shared inbox
A shared inbox is where most teams start, and for pure conversation it is fine. As a lead management system it has one structural flaw: an email has no owner, no stage and no due date, so triage depends entirely on who happens to be looking. That is why response times swing from ten minutes to three days with no pattern.
| Tallium AI CRM | a shared inbox | |
|---|---|---|
| Ownership of a new enquiry | Assigned on arrival, always somebody's job | Whoever opens it, if anyone does |
| Source tracking | Captured at entry, reportable by channel | Guessed later from the email signature |
| Status of an enquiry | Explicit stage on a pipeline | Read or unread |
| Follow-up | Dated task with an owner | Flag the email and hope |
| Duplicate enquiries | Matched to the existing contact | A second thread, answered separately |
| Reporting on lead volume | Live counts by source and stage | Counting emails manually |
Why teams choose Tallium AI CRM
Unlimited users, so the record is actually complete
Sales, support, finance, operations and the owner all get logins with permissions deciding what each can see. Per-seat CRMs quietly push teams to leave people off the system, and the customer history is incomplete exactly where it matters most.
Working on day one, not after a project
A sensible default pipeline, clean contact and company records and lead capture forms ship with the account. Rename the stages to match how you sell, import your contacts, and the CRM is live the same afternoon.
One account with Tallium Accounting and Marketing
The pipeline, the books and the campaigns share one login and one set of customer records. There is no integration to maintain between the quote you sent and the invoice you raised, because they are in the same system.
Built for WhatsApp-led selling
Enquiries that arrive by WhatsApp are captured as leads with a source tag and an owner, and the contact record carries the click-to-chat link. The conversation stays where your customers are. The commitments live where your team can see them.
AI that removes admin, not judgement
Incoming leads are sorted by intent so the ready-to-buy ones surface first, and follow-up messages are drafted for you to edit and send. It is aimed at the twenty minutes a day lost to admin, not at replacing the salesperson's read of a deal.
Your data stays yours
Contacts, deals and history live in your workspace and export cleanly to CSV whenever you want them. There is no lock-in through an export fee or a proprietary format, which is the right test to apply to any CRM before you commit.
Getting started, step by step
- Create the workspace and add your whole team. There is no seat count to decide, so add everyone who talks to a customer.
- Import contacts and companies from a CSV export of your spreadsheet, mailbox or previous CRM. Map the columns once and merge duplicates as you go.
- Rename the default pipeline stages so the board matches how you actually sell, then move your open deals onto it with values and expected close dates.
- Publish a lead capture form and put it on your website, so new enquiries create contacts automatically with the source recorded.
- Set the follow-up rule the team will keep: every open deal carries a next step with a date and an owner. This is the habit that decides whether the CRM works.
Frequently asked questions
Is contact management software the same as a CRM?
Contact management is the foundation of a CRM. A contact manager stores people and their details. A CRM adds the deals, tasks and pipeline built on top of those contacts. If you only need an address book, a spreadsheet may do. Once you are tracking value and follow-ups, you want the full record.
Can I import contacts from my phone and spreadsheets?
Yes. Export to CSV from your phone, mailbox or spreadsheet and import into Tallium AI CRM, mapping columns to contact fields. The important step is doing it once for everyone, so the team stops maintaining private lists in parallel.
How much does Tallium AI CRM cost in Singapore?
Tallium AI CRM is a flat $99 USD per month for the whole workspace, billed in USD, which teams in Singapore usually compare against per-seat tools quoted in SGD equivalents. Unlimited users are included, so the price does not change when you hire. There are no per-seat fees, no feature tiers and no contact-count steps.
Does Tallium AI CRM charge per user?
No. Every plan includes unlimited users. That is the structural difference from most CRMs, and it changes behaviour as much as cost: when a login is free, support and finance go on the system too, and the customer record stops having holes in it.
Is Tallium AI CRM suitable for a small business in Singapore?
Yes. It is built for teams of two to fifty who need a pipeline that stays current, contact records the whole team can see, and follow-ups that happen on a date rather than from memory. In Singapore, where much of the selling happens over email, the important part is that enquiries from those channels are captured as leads rather than lost in a phone.
How long does setup take?
Most teams are working in the CRM the same day. The account ships with a default pipeline, contact and company records and lead capture, so setup is importing your contacts and renaming stages rather than a configuration project. There is no implementation fee and no consultant required.
Can I import my existing contacts?
Yes. Export to CSV from a spreadsheet, mailbox, phone or your current CRM and import it, mapping columns to contact and company fields. Deals import with stage, value and owner, so an existing pipeline arrives intact rather than being rebuilt by hand.
