Notes Comments Collapsed by Default
Prior to 12/2025, comments on Notes were automatically collapsed by default, but, beginning approx. 12/08/2025, they are all now automatically expanded.
This is particularly frustrating to me for at least 2 reasons: 1) it really clutters up my screen and requires a lot of scrolling (haha), unless I click on the option to collapse comments under each Note and 2) it causes security/privacy concerns while sharing my screen with someone else (unless I open every Note I may possibly need to view and then collapse any sensitive comments before screen sharing, or constantly pause/un-pause if sharing electronically).

"Location" Filterable & Searchable & Visible on Calendar
We have multiple offices and not being able to filter the calednar by location or have it be seachable is very limiting to our reporting and scheduling capabilities.

CRM > Custom Export Template > Pinned Note fields
Please add fields to the Custom Export Template so that we can select for "Pinned Note" and "Note Created Date." We use Pinned Notes to show KYC info, but we need to make sure to update them every year... RedTail does not provide a way to find out which of them are outdated. This report would solve that.

search on primary phone/email/address
I can run a report on clients that show what phone #s, emails, and addresses are designated as primary but I cannot run a search to see just those clients that have (or don't have) a primary phone/email/address designated. We need to have a search option to see that so we don't have to run a report and delete the non-needed information

Scrap Worflows and Start Over
Let's go RedTail. Improve your look & feel, functionality, and logic.
For example, Workflows are totally unworkable and forces practices to track processes in other applications, opening the door to your competition.
There are so many other applications that handle repetitive processes in a more logical and user-friendly method. Do some research and hire away some programmers, Orion.

Attaching an Email from Outlook to a Client Record (when client is not on the chain)
Redtail should have a feature/integration with Outlook to attach an email to a client record, when the client email address is not included on the chain. I understand email archiving can capture communication with the client, but there are instances where our team has emails related to the client and we should be able to save those without copy and pasting into a note.

Add 'Assigned To' column on the main Workflows tab
Add 'assigned to' column on the main Workflows tab. As a supervisor, I want to see who all the workflows are assigned to, not just who owned (created) them. Currently, the workflow tab only shows Owner. A supervisor needs to see all of the workflows and who the workflows are currently assigned to in order to track any bottlenecks or hold ups. If I choose Workflow Tasks from my Today screen, I can see Assigned to, but I can only see those workflows assigned to me.

Workflow tasks should show up in the regular activity list of "things to do today".
I would like Workflow Tasks to show up in the regular activity list of "things to do today". That way, I can view past, upcoming, etc. workflow tasks in my regular activities list. Our entire office, including owner, HATE having to go to a completely separate area to see workflow tasks. As a matter-of-fact, many Workflow tasks are missed because they do not show in the regular activities list. This feature would be VERY helpful in doing our work, planning, and filling in when staff members are absent.

Adding account selection to workflows
Please add the option of linking an account to a workflow (similar to how you tag an account to an activity). This would prevent manual entry of an account number when working on a workflow that that is needed. For example, if the workflow is to move money in or out of a particular account, it would be nice to tag the particular account that is affected to the workflow. It shouldn't be mandatory to create a workflow, but optional based on account-specific workflows.

Do not automatically expand comments under notes section in client record
Please return to having users drill down to the comments in the notes section of a client record. This morning we found the comments suddenly expanded on all notes in our clients' records. We rely heavily on note and comments, however, with the comments automatically showing, our team is spending an undue amount of time scrolling through the notes section to find pertinent information.
Could this be an option in preferences?6 votes -

Holidays
Why are all the Holiday's not listed on the calendar? Mother's Day and Father's Day are missing. Christmas and New Year's Day are there but not Eves. Good Friday shows but not Easter. ALL HOLIDAYS NEED TO BE SEEN!

one year anniversary
It would be great if there was the option to set an alert for a new client's one year anniversary with their advisor. Ideally, after the "Client SInce: " field, there could be a check box asking if we want a reminder of the anniversary, similar to how the 'enable dob reminder' functions.

view projected revenue on opportunity page
I would like to have the projected revenue be visible in the total calculated on the opportunities dashboard, not just the total projected dollar amount. This would be a way to track potential income, which is very important to us advisors.

Employer Address Shared to the Contact Card as "Work" Address
It would be helpful if the business/work address of an Employer fed over into the contact card of the contact under "work" address. This would eliminate unnecessary time manually adding in the work address if multiple employees are clients. I'd recommend treating it just like a "Family"... If a contact's work address is different than the main address, then make it possible to have the work address added first, then assign the Employer to the Individual. That way, the Employer address will be shared to the contact card.

Notify Creator of an Activity via Email (not just added attendees)
Many people at our firm create their own activities and we would like to be able to receive the email notification for an activity being created. We understand that currently, only attendees added by the creator of the activity get notified. However, it would be great to be able to get notified via email as the creator of the activity as well.

Calendar & Users
When adding an activity for another user in calendar view, it would be great if the pop out drop down did not default to "me" rather the user(s) calendar that you are viewing.
This would be helpful when scheduling meetings for multiple users/advisors.3 votes -
When I search notes for a specific term, it would be very helpful if the specific term is actually highlighted in the larger note.
Highlight the term searched within the note. If I type "dog" rather than just pulling up the larger note that contains "dog" highlight that word for quicker location within the note.
