# Custom Fields for Standard Objects

Custom Fields let admins extend Alano’s standard CRM objects—so you can track exactly the data that matters to your workflow (e.g. Telegram handle, deal priority, internal notes, custom tags).

You can add custom fields to Customers, Contacts, Deals, and Tasks.
