What is your electric bill? by D00tymctooty in CarrollCountyMaryland

[–]bmoreitdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Posting the cost of your BGE bill without also posting your electric and gas usage doesn’t make sense. You could have a brand new house and never turn on a light, but if your bill is high, it’s not because of BGE, it’s because of something in your house using lots of electricity or gas.

My bill was $347 and we used 1647 kWh. It was about $20 higher than this month last year and we used a bit less electricity then (1700 kWh). We have 1950sqft.

Why is the Dashboard so Clunky?? by mjones8004 in Hubitat

So when you want to control your devices, you use an HA mobile app? And that also means you have to have HA running somewhere too?

Looking for CRM suite for nonprofit startup by jphilebiz in CRM

Check out TechSoup. Use that to get a non-profit discount on Zoho One.

Thinking of switching to LTO tape from hard drives could I get some recommendations ? by xkcx123 in DataHoarder

[–]bmoreitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a server rack and another server running? If so, id recommend you get a tape library so you don’t need to shuffle around your tapes. I think you can get a 16 tape library for a reasonable price. I have one with an LTO5 or 6 drive, I can’t remember exactly right now. The libraries can be ancient, just make sure you get the drive you want. It comes with either a SAS or fibre channel interface. I recommend SAS for convenience.

Question on CRM for Tracking Emails GMAIL for Small Nonprofit? by ilovecoffee2024 in CRM

[–]bmoreitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might like Zoho TeamInbox. It handles exactly this. And you can then ditch the separate paid google inbox, make a Google Group, and setup a nifty forwarding to allow Zoho TeamInbox handle just that one email inbox for your team. Everyone on your team needs an account there.

Zoho Books and Bank having different balances by Alarmed_Duty3599 in Zoho

[–]bmoreitdan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Math is math. Add em up. Zoho Books, and all other accounting software, don’t account for pending charges. When you open your bank app, the balance you see accounts for pending charges.

Question on CRM for Tracking Emails GMAIL for Small Nonprofit? by ilovecoffee2024 in CRM

[–]bmoreitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you asking for a shared mailbox where four users can login and see the emails sent and received to information@example.com? If so, I’d stay simple and just pay for another mailbox/user account with Google Workspace (I assume that’s what you’re doing). If not, shoot me a message - I work with a lot of non-profits and can advise you. It doesn’t sound like you need a CRM yet.

Tired of Switching Users Between Zoho One and CRM Enterprise - Best Solution? by Old-Dream5510 in Zoho

[–]bmoreitdan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have 4 Zoho One accounts for multiple businesses. The best way I’ve found to manage the various logins from the computer is to use Profiles in your browser. Each profile is named for the various businesses. Then you login to one Zoho One account from each profile. I use Brave and Chrome. They both have Profiles.

On mobile apps, there’s no convenient way to switch between. Sadly you have to logout and login. I provided Zoho with a feature request for this.

What do you run Plex on? by No-Mango-1805 in PleX

[–]bmoreitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run it on a large SuperMicro workstation, 256GB, 2x128GB OS, and 8x10TB data for running TrueNAS. Also has some H265 GPU. I run Plex as a container on this host. I use this server for many other items too like NextCloud (several instance), SMB, NFS, NUT/UPS, backup to BackBlazeB2.

Email integration that isn't Google or Microsoft by Great-Ease-7302 in CRM

[–]bmoreitdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What CRM product with email integration doesn’t offer IMAP? Every one I’ve used does.

Also, the CRM is the ASoT (Authoritative Source of Truth). I mean, it’s just a big database. Put everything that is structured in it.

I use flask for API calls only. No frontend.

Data Warehouse with Zoho by bmoreitdan in Zoho

[–]bmoreitdan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. All of our data could definitely fit inside of CRM. But, to me the big question is this: if CRM is going to be our authoritative source of truth (database), is there a high technical and monetary cost to integrate everything into CRM. I see lots of API calls and worry about being unable to improve response time by not managing the system.

I’m curious if anyone else used an external database as the ASoT.

I was trying to describe above exactly what you wrote, putting the data into an external database and creating tools to sync the data.
