Create option to "freeze" the 'all day' row
Please add the ability to "Freeze" the "all day" row in the calendar so that it holds at the top of the calendar even when scrolling to later times in the day. When scheduling for multiple users later in the day (so that you are unable to see the "all day" row), it is easy to forget when people are out of the office, it's a holiday, people are working from home, etc... If that row were frozen, far fewer scheduling mishaps would occur!!

Auto-create inferred Memberships
Would love to see a popup window displaying INFERRED memberships based on the contacts existing family/memberships.
i.e. Barbara and Paul are married and have 2 children. Upon creating an Aunt/Nephew membership for Barbara. A pop-up window appears asking if you'd like to create an Uncle/Nephew membership for Paul, and Cousin/Cousin memberships for their 2 kids.
Bonus points if the window has dropdowns to change the membership types (for example from 'Sister' to 'Half-Sister') before confirming.
Please consider this. It would be a massive time-saver!

ability to move note box
I would love to be able to move the note box around while it is open so that I am able to see more about that contact or even look at other contacts while working on a note. Currently if you are creating a note there is no functionality until that note is completed.

Employer Field - Add dropdown feature to list Employers the user can select from
Our office has dozens of group retirement plans. When adding a new employee contact record, we want our office associates to select from a list of employers. Currently the Employer Field is open to any text allowing office associates to enter employer any which way. For example. IBM may be listed as IBM or International Business Machines or Intl Bus Machines. Because we use the employer field in creating quick lists, it is not useful if the employer field is not entered consistently. This is why I suggest a dropdown. Our administrators can prepopulate the employers to be in the…

Stop requiring different passwords for different parts of redtail
There should not be three different logins to go from Redtail CRM, to Redtail Feedback, and Redtail Support. Change it to one password to get to all three.....

More extensive family tree capabilities
The family tree that you can build out currently is extremely limited and linear - you should be able to build out siblings with their spouses and children. The membership section is out of the way and awkward to use.

Dynamic due dates for workflow steps
Instead of conditioning all workflow steps off a single target date, adding a feature where one step can be spaced a certain number of days from the prior step. If the first step is completed before or after its initial due date, the due date of the next step adjusts dynamically to preserve the spacing between the steps. The user can specify whether they want all steps to be conditioned off the target date, of if they want to create a chain reaction where the timing of each step is based on the others.

Column View for Opportunities
Feature Suggestion: Column View for Opportunities
I’d love to see a column-based view added to the Opportunities screen in Redtail CRM! This feature could function like a Kanban board, making it easier to manage and update opportunities visually.
Here’s how it could work:
• Sortable Columns: Users could organize opportunities by stage, type, or source, with each column representing a specific category.
• Drag-and-Drop Updates: Opportunities would appear as cards within the columns, and users could update an opportunity’s stage by dragging it from one column to another (e.g., from “Needs Contact” to “Meeting Scheduled”).
• Customizable Layout: Users could…

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).

Have the Timeline Link Directly to Acitivities
When I'm checking on the timeline, I can see my coworkers edited an activity, but since it doesn't specify to whom the activity is for, I don't always know where to find it. If I could click the activities in the timeline and have it link directly to the activity page, that would save me a lot of headaches.

Being able to import contacts ourselves
Seems like an unnecessary added step to have to send in to Redtail for implementation. Wouldn't it be more efficient to allow the client to import a bulk upload to manage themselves?

Would like to have date on UDF updated when activity is completed, e.g., "Last Review Date" updates when "Review" activity is completed.
We use UDF's, "Last Review Date" and "Next Review Date". Would like to have RT automatically update these UDF's when a Phone Review or Review type activity is completed.

opportunity archive
We'd like a way to archive opportunities by year so the information at the top (Closed Won and Closed Lost) is for the current year only rather than since the beginning of time.

Add documents to a contact record from the mobile app
It would be helpful to be able to add a document to a contact from the mobile app. when my office meets with clients outside the office we like to take photos with our phones of our handwritten notes that we give to the clients that way we can keep track and answer any questions. Ideally we would like to be able to upload that photo directly from our phones camera-roll directly to a clients notes or document section. Just like uploading a document in the desktop version.

Integration with BombBomb
Allow BombBomb and Redtail to automatically sync together or allow contacts to be sent to BombBomb, like they are sent to Constant Contact.
(May also be helpful to allow systems like Constant Contact & BombBomb to add notes to Redtail when an email/video message has been sent.)

notes in activity
It would be nice to be able to see all the notes, together, for a particular activity within the activity at least until the activity is marked complete. They tend to get mixed in with other notes in the notes section and it's hard to tell what is happening in that activity.
Or, it would be nice to have a button that would add the current date and time stamp to items typed in the description field.
