Hey Nicholas,
I'm the head product guy at Close.io - you should check us out at http://close.io/ -- or so it's not just me tooting my own horn, see what some of our customers are saying at http://www.quora.com/Reviews-of-Close-io
We have had a number of web/design agencies use us as well.
Basically, we've tried to make a CRM that streamlined and reduces manual data entry, to help you get more done. Would love to hear any feedback you have and I'd also be happy to answer any questions about the CRM landscape in general.
I think the complaints here are not mostly performance related, rather it's an issue of feature bloat, trying to do too many things, lack of focus, and an example of legacy decisions that led to a product that certainly wouldn't look the same way if Apple started over today.
I also manage a large music collection but entirely agree with this article. They could (should) split the app up into a Music app (just like in iOS 7) to manage/play music, another app for Podcasts, etc.
Looks like a screenshot from OS X Messages rather than from iOS.
