One of the key tasks of any business is managing their customer relationships. This runs the gamut from initial interactions and lead generation all the way to closing a sale. One of the key ways that businesses have been doing this is via customer relationship management (CRM) tools like SAP CRM. With so many options to choose from, we take an in depth look at what this CRM has to offer from its setup all the way to key integrations like voice to SAP CRM to determine whether it’s worthwhile getting.

A Brief History

SAP’s foray into CRMs goes all the way back to the very early 1990s where they looked at CRM related functionality as potential modules for their enterprise resource planning platform. This trend followed all the way into the 2000s when they finally offered its first stand-alone product. It was only in 2011 that SAP actively aimed to take on market leader Salesforce by shifting more towards cloud based applications. That’s not to say that its on premises options aren’t viable—in fact there remains thousands of companies who rely on the software.

The Big Benefits

Being cloud based, it also allows for remote access that is increasingly becoming the norm in the business world today. Such feature also easily enables collaboration between field representatives, internal assistants, product managers and business leaders. With SAP CRM’s built-in forecasting tools, users are immediately provided with insights that are advantageous in driving sales and engaging existing customers. Personalization, from a  single user to a company perspective, is also easily achieved through its many customization features. It allows business to quickly adjust or  streamline processes which are aligned with their usage of the tool.

Travel and Expense Management

Process automation is easily achieved with Concur – a widely utilized system by many industries to monitor and manager travels and expenses of their field personnel. With such solution being SAP, synchronization with SAP CRM, as well as consistent maintenance of such fusion, is easily achieved.  It gives business big value for their investments.

Voice Integration

Voice to Concur / SAP CRM integration is another advantage of this platform . Traditional methods of inputting data have always been prone to human error. This is unacceptable when a single number or letter noted wrong can spell the difference between a viable contact and a hard bounce. Voice integration allows for effective and efficient capture at the point of contact in order to ensure that the right data is captured at the right time.
