Today organizations in all spheres are competing with each other to deliver value. For this, they need to provide the best possible service to ensure they hold on to their existing customer base. Investing in customer relationship management (CRM) technology helps organizations offer proactive services to improve service effectiveness, provide a central source for customer information, and unify their marketing and promotional communications.
"CRM will be at the heart of digital initiatives in the coming years. This is one technology area that will definitely get funding as digital business is crucial to remaining competitive," said Joanne Correia, research vice president at Gartner. "Hot areas for CRM investment include mobility, social media and technologies, Web analytics and e-commerce."
CRM is not only used by large enterprises but also by small and medium enterprises. CRM is a great tool for small/medium enterprises who have low numbers of staff and don’t want to neglect their customer relationships. Similarly, it is equally beneficial for large scale organizations with multiple brands who want to manage their huge audiences. Its primary benefit is getting to know customers in a much better way.
