CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi, my name is Jorge Alfonzo and i'm doing research to solve one of my company's problems and I think that CiviCRM is what we need.

The case:

My company is a non-profit theater managed by a bank. But, my company also do the Public Relations to the bank it self. the issue is that the company is often madding events, for the bank or for the theater, and every time they want to do an invitation list they have to start from zero. they have to call the people using a notebook, or an address-book (not very efficient, right?).
So I start researching for a way to manage the contacts in real, updated in real time on a cloud if its possible. with an smart data base how let us to organize the contacts for entity (those are from this bank, those are from that media channel, ...) or for what they do for us ( client, member of the bank, media, VIP, ...). They want the program to be compatible with Outlook that they currently use, the want it to have a free license, to be able to be exported easily to an excel page or book.

this is the program for us?

Sorry if my English isn't that good.

there's a limit in the number of contacts CiviCRM can handle?

I don't really think I know, is matter of time to know. but I will tell you as soon as i I know.
