as it is a very flexible software that can be adapted to any business model, other functions human resource management, manufacturing and supply chain planning, all these functions are housed in a highly technological interface. I liked this system because it made automating accounts payable so much easier.the control of the basic accounting of any type of company

Couple of scenarios where Sage worked really well for us. Earlier we used to have servers locally based and we were have accessibility issues when employee travels to another locations. Plus the software used to lag a bit. Both of these issues were resolved by using Sage CRM. Secondly it was really difficult to train a new team member on using the old CRM. This is very user friendly and the dashboards are in such a way that a new person can also use it very easily.

This is a software that thanks to its integrations with other applications, makes it a very complete CRM for all departments. What sets it apart from the rest is that it has a very easy to use interface and everyone adapts easily to it, which generates that tasks and activities are executed more efficiently. Very good software and highly recommended.

Our company is 100% remote so onboarding remote employees has been fairly easy as the CRM is very intuitive. I can easily log into Sage CRM and see my team members activities, know where they have left off with clients and in turn where I should pick the conversation up with the client. Overall the experience has been great however the expense ( monthly packages ) were over our budget.

A sales department that needs access to update customer information quickly and easily, without entering the ERP system, where other customer info could be inadvertently changed. A manager who wants to see dashboards of their salespeople, an overall view of sales performance using KPI that are specified by an administrator or the manager themselves. A marketing director who wants access to the customer base to send out mailings, or e-mails. They would have the ability to create exports based on certain filters like location, revenue, industry, etc.

Sage CRM is well suited for organizations already using other Sage products.
For us, CRM has been a good software to use but I always recommend you ask [about] the ability to integrate with other softwares being used in your organization.
The product is easy to use and easy to install. The product is good for medium sized companies.

Sage CRM is very well suited to organizations using Sage accounting products like Sage 300C and Sage X3. There are many industries like NFPs that have vertical products for Donor management and fundraising. Sage CRM can be modified to accommodate these requirements but there are industry vertical solutions that are great out of the box.

I recommend you ask details about the best deployment options for you. I would always ask questions relevent to how you currently do things and run your business to see what fits or might need to be customized to fit the solution. If important, ask about integration into other software you currently use. When integrated, the software becomes even more valuable to the organization.

I think Sage CRM is suited very well for veteran customers of other Sage products. It is a great value for smaller businesses as opposed to other CRM products out on the market. It is very easy to use which is also something that makes it stand out amongst its competitors.

I think if it's managed well by a sales team, it can be a great tool - if that sales team is also willing to put in the time to learn to use all of the functions. I think if you are looking at Sage CRM, you should ask for a full walk through to see if it's something that you really think you can manage, it's definitely not user friendly for salespeople who lack in tech knowledge.

Only having one primary contact can cause issues for companies who are more specialized and custom. We deal with many people throughout the company so this can cause issues on trying to figure out who to contact. Creating advanced custom screens are also rather complicated and many times would require outside work to complete.

For retail it is much more simplistic and easy to use. Storing all customer information along with communication info is simple.

It all depends on the type of organization, what one is wanting to track and the knowledge one has with CRM in general. Compared to Salesforce, e.g., Sage CRM has a much easier and logical layout, the overview is much better and it is easier to learn. I cannot speak about capabilities in total, but for my purposes Sage CRM rules.

Give it a very deep look but try to picture yourself supporting this with a reseller relationship. In our case our reseller went under and was sold. We've been attempting to self support and grow but Sage as a company does not support a community of self running people. At the end of the day when the product has been delivered, it is up to your company or reseller to support this product. You will need to dig around the database/sql in order to keep it running.

Having spent a long time now in the software industry, there is no one size fits all I have learnt, but having said that, SAGE CRM is a very adaptable and easily customised product that it can fit in a variety of situations and markets. The key in my view is ensuring that the software is a good match and sometimes the look and feel is important in gaining ownership. Sales and Marketing Departments find it easy to use as do Help Desk and it is a strong contender in many projects we are involved with.

I was not part of the building process but have been with other systems. I think you need to think about who is going to be using this system, how they will be using this system, and what the end user and the people buying the system are expecting to get out of it. I feel if there is a clear, defined, documented process, it would serve the purchaser well to be sure this system can do exactly what they want it to do, can be altered if needed, the costs associated with that process, timelines, and compatibility with other systems. It's also a great system for pulling reports for various things.

Sage CRM is well suited horizontally across the business marketplace. The product is easy to install, works across all browsers and mobile devices, and is easily configurable and customizable in a way that is upgrade safe. In particular, Sage CRM is a great system for emerging businesses that are growing quickly as the system can be configured quickly for a team of people and scales to hundreds of users easily. Lastly, Sage CRM integrates quite well with other systems and there are many examples of significant ERP integration (especially Sage ERP products) that would be costly using other CRM technologies.

If the product is presented with SAGE ERP and a shipping solution, price shopping on shipping costs. For customers, complete purchase price is needed for any retail store fronts and those that ship goods from phone orders.
