    Inside Sales Box is great for call centers and places that require the call records to be related to the accounts. It would be less needed in situations in which calls are not an essential part. Inbound call records would be much better if they attached to the Salesforce records like outbound calls.

    In my opinion, the most valuable characteristic of SPO is that by answering simple questions a very complex product can be configured; therefore the scope of delivery is defined very well. In addition, SPO has great flexibility to manage prices and costs. However, SPO is configurator of parts that allows incorporating basic design rules for their selection. SPO is not a optimised for developing complicated engineering design rules.

    I selected this because already it has market place where professional people are there who make it easy for workers of different companies to interact with each other regarding their sales. It is quite good for professionals to talk with others in the same field and make easy your work.

    The previous product we used was developed by ourselves so my experience is very limited. I can say that having a software like SPO we can configure the product without any programming experience and this makes things faster and better. Moreover, I can say that MS Office compatibility is a strong point.
