Expected Reforms in CRM Landscape
For a long time, CRM has been an acronym, interpreting to be the solution for all business processes. However, verticalization of industries and sub-sectors call for a range of specialized solutions that are created from the ground up, rather than from adapting a generic CRM to fit a vertical.
Stating his opinions on the future reforms in the tech driven, CRM industry, the Founder & CEO of OptimaSys Group says, “Integrating technologies to achieve complete solutions will be a must in the coming years. Additionally, all softwares should focus on its open infrastructure, allowing the necessary in & out points to seamlessly communicate with all types of software solutions including the competitors. Making CRM solutions even more agile will benefit the user who has a central solution that ties into excellent third party extensions. Any process should always be defined and created together with the user community, which we noticed is not yet the case for many software companies. It’s not about the technology so much, it is and will always be about the processes.”
