Open Source CRM - A Viable Alternative?
by Anonymous

February 16, 2004--"This is not the case." states Brad Mostert, the sales manager at Coordinated TECHnologies. "Utilising Open Source CRM technology today is an exceptionally viable and cost effective alternative to most of the 'other' options. And, you get instant functionality within minutes of installing the software."

Some of the advantages of the Coordinated TECHnologies CoreCRM solution are:
No initial capital is required
The software is free (including commercial use)
The software uses a standard web browser for access and can be rolled out across an enterprise with no additional costs
The software is managed and supported by Coordinated TECHnologies

With the ability to generate specific reports automatically that can be emailed to various management team members, the management functions surrounding traditional CRM software solutions are reduced and your sales management team can begin to take more of a consultative approach, rather than getting bogged down in managing the system.

"Being web browser based, allows 24 x 7 access to the system for your sales and management staff" states Mostert. "Your sales staff could simply log into to the secure system and complete CRM tasks while on the road."
"Security plays an important role in all CRM systems. The Open Source CRM software we implement and manage is no different", continues Mostert. "With multiple levels of secure access and private opportunity capabilities, CoreCRM delivers a secure solution that is available 24 hours a day"

"If your sales staff can browse the internet, they will find CoreCRM a breeze to work with." says Mostert. "It's a really easy to understand interface."

CoreCRM delivers a robust, cost effective, alternative CRM solution to small and mid sized companies that require CRM functionality, but cannot afford to purchase a software package that is aimed at the international market.
