When user creates a contact in Outlook it is does not appear in CRM.
Is that by MS design ?
Server-side sync is used. CRM\Exchange on premises.

You mean Track button in Outlook plugin?
Remember we are using Mac OS X , there is no plugin for Outlook.
So only manually or exporting contacts to file....?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
You can try using server-side synchronization: Check out this link from Microsoft.
In most cases, server-side synchronization is the best synchronization method. Note that you must be an administrator to synchronize with server-side synchronization.
It also looks like there could be a 3rd party solution but it would come at a cost.

Contacts that are created in CRM appear in Outlook because of a default filter that synchronizes contacts owned by the user to Outlook. This filter can be deactivated or modified and new filters can be created.
Contacts created in Outlook are never automatically added to CRM - users have to explicitly click on the Track button to create the contact in CRM.
