It's my CRM, it's my task manager, it handles my email marketing, keeps me informed of my team's progress; helps w/ me a/r; which has saved our company time and money in getting rid of programs no longer needed, reaching a larger client base and in staying on top of our collections. They offer regular training not just on their crm but sales trainings by their team as well as outsiders, like \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. They are constantly improving their system; > > **Cons**: That I can't make groups on the fly; that invoices can't reference an ad name; that we can't track when a client open's an email. however, when I come up with these instances these can either provide me with a work around or they are in the midst of solving that issue. > > I have been very satisfied w/ Magazine Manager; the program, reaching and tracking support has improved immensely; training availability and said category for training can be suited for individual needs. ----- ### "Magazine Manager is a great tool." — 5.0/5 > **Janice** | *23 June 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Magazine Manager is a robust tool that has allowed our publishing organization to manage multiple aspects of our magazine publishing in one central source, saving us precious hours of duplicated efforts. We have been able to combine sales, sales marketing, editorial, magazine layout, and buyers guide data together. The buyers guide content integration has saved our team countless hours of review and manual updates of our buyers guide data. > > **Cons**: The email build function can bit difficult to use. There have been a lot of updates recently so there has been a bit of a learning curve. > > Magazine Manager has been extremely accommodating to our team and helping us come up with solutions for integrating data into the program. ----- ### "The Good, Bad & the Ugly" — 3.0/5 > **Linda** | *9 August 2020* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: The positive using this software is it is easy to see Accounts payable send invoices if needed. > > **Cons**: It is not user friendly. I find this software very difficult and cumbersome to manipulate. > > I find it much more difficult that my previous database to work with when it comes to cancelling converted proposals. ----- ### "So glad we moved to The Magazine Manager" — 5.0/5 > **Brett** | *6 June 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Their customer service is phenomenal. I love having a dedicated CRM rep, who feels like she is part of our team. I also love the fact that the software seems to be at a level that is equivalent to the major players in the CRM industry, but yet the company is tailored to the media industry and the customer service feels like we're working with a boutique firm. > > **Cons**: When we suggest changes, we're just one of many clients, all using the same software. So, their triage system feels a little opaque. We have one small but annoying issue that we've been nagging them about since we joined and I just don't know where they are in addressing it and why it's taking so long. I say this hesitantly, as their software is still lightning years ahead of who we left. > > Overall, I'm so glad we joined The Magazine Manager. It's amazing that it's all on the cloud. We joined The Magazine Manager in January and it took us a couple of months to transition fully. I'm so glad we made the change. It really has solved a lot of our problems as a business and The Magazine Manager seems committed to constant improvement. ----- ### "You really can’t go wrong with Magazine Manager — it’s easy to use, intuitive, and does exactly what you need it to do." — 5.0/5 > **Cecile** | *20 June 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What really stands out is how effortlessly you can find everything you need — the system is intuitive, well-organised, and simply works the way you expect it to. > > **Cons**: Sometimes I find there’s a bit too much information, or I’m not always sure how to use certain features. But I know this mainly comes down to a lack of training on my side, which is why I try to join the webinars each week. I know you bring out a lot of updates but it would be great if you could possibly include a back-to-basics segment as well — just to cover things I might have missed along the way. > > I really love it — I’ve tried other CRM systems, and they’re often far too overcomplicated for what you actually need. Magazine Manager strikes the right balance: it’s powerful, but simple and straightforward to use. ----- Page: 1 / 15\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/123307/the-magazine-manager?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.nz/software/123307/the-magazine-manager) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
