Redtail sells CRM software built for financial advisors. Bottom line: the plans are easy to compare on paper, but only if the written quote matches the plan you think you bought.

Your next step: read the plan-page facts, then email Redtail the questions below. If you’d rather build client acquisition under your own firm’s name, see how OJay works with advisors.

OJay Media also sells marketing to financial advisors, so we have a commercial interest in this topic. This page doesn’t rate Redtail. It makes no claim about the outcomes of Redtail’s customers.

How should you read Redtail reviews?

Peer threads and vendor pages answer different questions.

Ask how each vendor quote was measured and which firms were left out.

Advisors also discuss CRM tools in forums such as r/CFP on Reddit. Read those threads for operating details, like onboarding effort and workflow fit, and check the date on each post.

Directory listings are category labels. They do not prove how Redtail will work inside your firm.

Four steps for reading Redtail reviews: separate vendor quotes from peer threads, question selected stories, read advisor forums for operating details, and ask for references you can call.
Vendor quotes and peer threads answer different questions.

Which questions should you send Redtail?

These questions come from what the plan page and the home page say, and from what they leave out.

Send them by email so the answers are in writing. Then compare the paperwork with those answers.

Jump to what the plan page listed. Ask Redtail to put the number for your user count in an email.

Redtail listed a five-user maximum for Launch. Ask Redtail what happens when a sixth user needs access.

Redtail listed Imaging and Speak inside Growth. Ask Redtail whether Speak needs broker-dealer approval for your firm.

Who helps me after launch? Ask Redtail for a sample onboarding plan and training schedule.

If an answer is vague, ask again in writing. If it stays vague, that tells you something too.

Five steps: email your questions to Redtail, get written answers, check the answers against the agreement, have your compliance reviewer or attorney read it, then decide.
Written answers are the ones you can check.

If you sign up, what should you track?

Decide before your first week what you’ll measure. Then your decision rests on your own numbers.

Adoption. Log how many advisors open Redtail each day in week one.

Count tasks and notes actually entered in the first month.

Workflows. Count workflows you run without a workaround.

Count support tickets you open in the first quarter.

Review the numbers after one quarter. A shared spreadsheet is enough, as long as the same person updates it.

A checklist of five numbers to track after joining a CRM: daily opens, notes entered, workflows run, support tickets, and quarterly review.
Review these after one quarter.

Should you use Redtail?

That depends on your practice more than on any review.

On its own description, the product suits advisors who fit this picture:

  • You want an advisor-focused CRM with published Launch and Growth plans.
  • You can staff onboarding so the database does not sit empty.
  • You can ask Redtail for your user count and plan mix by email.

Slow down if:

  • Your broker-dealer blocks Speak or related tools.
  • Your team cannot staff the move of notes and tasks into the CRM.
  • The written answers differ from what you heard on the demo.

If you’d rather build a way for prospects to find your firm under your own name, that’s what OJay does. You can see our process and decide whether it fits.

If you reuse reviews, ratings, or ads in your own marketing, have your firm’s authorized reviewer check them first. The SEC investment adviser marketing guide and FINRA Rule 2210 are documents for that reviewer. This article is not legal or compliance advice, and it does not mean any service is approved.

About Oliwer Jonsson

Founder, OJay Media

I built OJay Media Marketing after watching strong advisors get let down by generalist agencies that didn't understand compliance, high-net-worth prospects, or what it costs an advisor to win a new client.

I've spent 7 years in performance and direct-response marketing, working with RIA and advisory firms across the US and Canada. That work adds up to over $220 million in pipeline AUM across 22 RIA partners. Past results are not guarantees of future outcomes.

We take on at most 4 new clients a month, so every firm gets my direct attention. Our fees are tied to qualified appointments rather than retainers. Every campaign is built for the SEC Marketing Rule and FINRA Rule 2210, with copy that leads with credibility and evidence instead of urgency tactics.

  • $220M+ pipeline AUM
