Allow bulk / batch editing of contacts, especially in custom fields
I've just imported a bunch of people from our mailing list. But now I need to batch edit all those contacts, and I can't do that without editing each one individually.

We had the same question. Ways we were advised of achieving this is to either:
1) Create a bespoke journey - add the contacts to that journey (via list / segment) then use the update field action to update the contacts.
or...
2) Export the contacts to excel - update them in excel then re-import. The contacts will no be duplicated, but rather matched via email addresses then merged.
Hope that helps somebody in the same boat! :)

Same issue here! A bulk editing feature for contacts should definitely be added. It's extremely time consuming to edit one at a time!
