Sage has created an eBook: CRM Flex Test. The purpose of the eBook is to provide prospective customers or existing customers with a checklist of considerations to discuss as an organization before engaging or re-engaging with a CRM vendor. To help you promote this material, we have packaged several marketing tools you can use to promote to the CRM Flex Test to prospects or existing customers.
EBook Breakdown:
The eBook is comprised of a five-point checklist designed to assess the suitability of on-premise and on-demand CRM solutions, including:
Recent trends suggest that many companies understand the value of CRM as both an on-demand and on-premise solution. According to a 2010 Goldman Sachs study, for example, while 19 percent of CIOs were planning to spend more on SaaS-based enterprise software, 21 percent were also planning to spend more for on-premise applications.
The key, then, is finding a CRM vendor that understands both deployment options and offers businesses the flexibility to move easily between the two, or to adopt both at the same time. The vendors most likely to accomplish this task without sacrificing functionality, flexibility or security, are those that can leverage their deep experience in the on-premise CRM market to provide the same functionality in a mature, single-tenant, on-demand solution.
