Our take
Many leading CRM software require a lot of manual entry, but have little job-specific functionality, making tracking and interacting with potential and current customers time-consuming and inefficient. SugarCRM, which started as a project to elevate CRM with automation, has since grown into an AI-driven cloud product used by thousands of companies across the globe.
The Sugar Platform incorporates robust cloud structures and security, presents AI-powered predictions for customer trajectories and supports macro and micro customisation options. Importantly, its versatility and flexibility make it suitable for multiple teams across the CRM landscape.
Though it's far from the only CRM platform on the market, SugarCRM’s longevity as a company exemplifies its trusted status among businesses from many sectors. Ultimately, CRMs are a vital part of almost all industries, and Sugar’s established place in the market gives it plenty of scope for further success.
