Build your sales for £60 per year
23/09/2008 send to a friend
Based on a glowing recommendation from the boys at ratemyplacement.com, we thought we’d take a peek at sales tool, salesforce.com and see what it has to offer. Quite a lot, it seems. It’s low cost quality that will help you increase sales.
What does the company say?
Salesforce.com calls itself:
“the global leader in on-demand customer relationship management (CRM).”
Of its sales product it says:
“Salesforce.com's flagship sales force automation (SFA) application gives businesses the upper hand with their sales data. Salesforce gives fast access to data—online, offline, and via mobile devices—and links easily to popular tools like Microsoft Office and Outlook.”
You'd expect a sales company to be good at selling its own products but do their customers tell the same story?
What do users say?
One very happy user is Ali Lindsay, Director of ratemyplacement.com. This is what he has to say about it:
“We have the Salesforce Group edition and pay £5 per user per month. I think the max. number of users is 5. They also offer a free trial so you can see what all the fuss is about.
We really recommend it. It does everything we need, and if we could master it, probably a whole lot more.”
What does Enterprise Nation say?
Ask us in 30 days! We’ve just signed up for the free trial so we’ll take a look and let you know how it goes. If you’d like to sign up for the free trial, click on the link below. If you use a sales tool that you think is particularly good, we’d love to hear from you.
