Exporting GLM entered contacts to Outlook?
I think having a way to export GLM entered contacts to my Outlook contacts would be very useful and a time saver. My Outlook contacts are automatically synced with my iPhone, so having some sort of way to export GLM Organizations and Users to Outlook would make my travel and work life much easier, especially when I am doing site visits and need to make a phone call to a GLM entered contact.
These are moved to archived during client up effort in 2024 April.

It would be great if we could import GLM contacts into Outlook. The new president of our foundation has asked for this feature.

...If the sync could be controlled (i.e. showing what would be changed in each Outlook contact entry and allowing the admin to approve per contact entry or even per change), and
...if the applicants were no longer allowed to change their own names (so many times staff changes mean a person's contact info is completely changed to someone else! So "Tom" from last year could become "Ellen" from this year and we would be none the wiser,
...then I would LOVE this. But I wouldn't say it's the highest thing on my list. -

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the suggestion. I don't think this would be that difficult for us to implement.
My bigger question would a matter of priority. I'd really like to hear other users weigh in on this functionality, understanding that doing this means not doing something else.
That said, if it looks like something we can do without a lot of disruption / risk, and it "fits" into a release without us having to cut other development, I'm certainly willing to consider it.
Thanks for taking the time to add this suggestion,
