Ability to see and edit Notes with Contact Redesign

[NicoleR999]

Hello!  With the recent updates to the contacts, simple functionality is no longer available.  

1) The notes are no longer available.  I understand that I can run the report and then create a custom field and re-upload, but that seems unnecessary. The notes field was very helpful with the date/time stamp.

2) Adding contacts to the lists now requires multiple clicks.  Previously, you could type the first few letters and the list would auto-populate that would allow you to select.  Now, you have to scroll through the list.

Hi @emilyb798 what about our updated contacts management dashboard does not fit your needs? What information are you unable to find in your contacts? What steps are you currently taking and how would you expect to find this information instead?

Bring back notes. I am not ok with having them just taken away. Period.

Please bring back NOTES as a function in our contacts. NOTES are quite critical to business. They let us know more about our contacts, what shows they attended, what classes they attended, when they signed up for our list. It's incredible important data for us. Please put this feature back on the site!

Please bring back the notes in the Contacts section. The new and improved updates are dead to me without the notes that I've curated over many years.

Where did the notes on our contacts go? I input lots of important information about when and how I met my contacts and now it is gone! You need to let people know before you wipe out their data! I need this information back. I'd like it in the contact data base but will take it as a one time spreadsheet if that is all you an do. How can I trust you with my data if you arbitrarily choose to delete it ???

We would also like the notes feature back, as well as the ability to add a contact to a list by typing, rather than scrolling down to find the right list. Also, can you make tags a column that could be included when looking at a list and it's contacts? Currently you can modify the columns that show up, which is a nice feature. It would be helpful to see what tags belong to a contact.

Also please let the notes be available as one of the columns in the list view!

Hello, Has a decision been made about this issue? It seems there are many people who really need the NOTES feature back. Thank you.

100% need this back. Not sure why this is gone, but now I'm stuck using a second tool and a second contact management system to keep track of notes on my contacts. Mind boggling that the feature was removed "in the name of progress". 

FWIW: I run a monthly dinner series and I use the notes to keep track of the details about my attendees, including food allergies. I can't use tags for each and every food issues or discussion point related to their needs or business interests (that would end up being hundreds of unnecessary tags). Notes was a critical workflow tool. Now I have to create a spreadsheet outside of CC to duplicate the contact database. Kinda pointless to keep a CRM if I'm creating a backup CRM to make notes in!

I need my notes. I have very important information in the notes and it's all gone.  I am not okay with this.  I would of liked to have been told about this before they were taken away.  There is a specific note file I need and its no longer available. This hurts our company. How can you take a big piece of the data base away?
