A user comment became a fix: no more duplicate companies

By Shahrukh A. Khan

Someone on Peerlist pointed out that CSV imports could split one company into two when the spelling differed. Fair point, so I fixed it. - Company names are normalized before matching, so "ACME, Inc." and "Acme Inc" land on the same record. - Imports also match on website or company email domain, ignoring free email providers like Gmail. - The import preview shows new vs matched companies, and you choose to skip, update or keep. - Existing duplicates get a "Possible duplicate" badge and a Merge button. Contacts, deals, invoices, tickets and activity move to one record in a single all-or-nothing step, and the duplicate is archived, not deleted. Building in public works best when people tell you where it breaks.
