Get laser-focused context
Tired of relying on back and forth email that gets lost in an ever-growing inbox of priorities? Or need to reference actual customer data to make decisions across your team?

Bonus Pro-Tip: Emailing and Text Message Sharing from Sugar Mobile
Another useful action commonly used on mobile is record sharing. Ever needed to share contact details and additional information while directly accessing a record in Sugar?
To share the entire record, use the Share option from a record's detail view. A link to the record can then be sent via email, text message, or any other method depending on your device's sharing options. From the desired record's detail view, tap the vertical ellipsis icon on the top right then select "Share" from the More Actions menu.
