Using LinkedIn to generate contact/company information

Using LinkedIn to generate contact/company information

Hi, we are currently in the process of implementing Bigin. One thing we really miss is a functionality that automatically generates contact or company information based on an email address or name/address. Before switching to Bigin, we were using Teamleader, which used LinkedIn to look up the necessary information to fill in the fields.

Considering Bigin already has a good integration with Twitter, would it ever be possible for Bigin to create one for LinkedIn, or any app/website that is able to automatically generate the data for the fields for contact/company?

Essentially all you see is a list of numbers adding up to the total. It is very difficult to see if things are right without being able to see what exactly each transaction refers to. Going into each transaction one-by-one is not a workable

Even worse that it takes multiple clicks to do it. Can there please be an update to: 1.) Allow us to apply tags to batches of notes in one go. 2.) Make it less clicks to add a tag 3.)
