How ScienceSoft Contributes to Your Customer Management Success
CRM consulting services will help you map out CRM implementation or improvement in line with your customer management strategy. With a good CRM, you get comprehensive customer analytics, keep the communication history and always stay up-to-date, and enjoy enterprise-wide process automation.
We start the CRM selection process with the analysis of your requirements to envision the system you need. Then we take an unbiased look at the CRM software market and provide you with a comparative analysis of the most suited options.
We analyze the tasks you want to perform in a CRM system and design the workflows with pre-built or custom functionality to support them. Knowing how CRM data is critical for any customer interaction, we plan how to connect multi-faceted data sets into unified customer profiles.
Custom CRM consulting
If we prove custom CRM development to be the best scenario for your business, we plan all functional modules and assemble them into a cohesive system.
Have you reached the limits of patience with your current CRM? We can help you migrate risk-free to a better system capable of supporting all the required functions and collecting more data for advanced customer profiling. No loss of current data, no process disruption â we guarantee!
We deal with the backlog of CRM issues and plans youâve been putting off, prioritize and implement the changes. We also go the extra mile to unlock the capabilities of your CRM system you donât use and explain how they can benefit your processes.
We plan your transition from several siloed CRM systems towards a single robust platform that will be used enterprise-wide. The challenge we sail through is to unify CRM processes across all departments and business units and thoroughly cleanse the data we put in a new system.
You can hardly imagine how differently your budget for CRM needs can be spent. You can invest in rich functionality and find half of it left unused over time. Or you can spend more on the initial investigation stage and end up with only a few custom-built functions that are totally worth the investment. As CRM consultants, we aim to plan and create a CRM with maximum long-term value for YOU, and we mean both business and financial value here. No commonplace best practices, no easy ways unless they will help meet your goals in the best possible way.

No CRM Goes without Three Key Components
Though CRM consulting services vary, our ultimate common goal is to give you the right tool to build lasting trust-based and profitable customer relations. We build each CRM around three functional components to achieve that.
Operational component
We want your employees to do more with less effort. For that, we automate no-brain workflows, set up scheduled notifications and reminders, add templates for different communication scenarios, and enable AI-powered guidance.
Collaborative component
A central space for all customer data, your CRM will be used by all departments for their own needs. We add activity feeds and chats for different teams to collaborate on deals and share ideas.
Analytical component
We donât leave you with raw customer data but facilitate drawing insights and action points from it. For that, we enable customer segmentation rules, predictive modeling, real-time performance analytics.
We Think about the Industry Context
Healthcare CRM
We put a strong focus on patient data protection and plan a robust DLP strategy with great care. We also implement any steps required to ensure the compliance with relevant industry regulations.
Banking CRM
We plan a comprehensive data security strategy to keep the sensitive financial information of your customers safe. Here come data encryption in transit and at rest, proper access control, security event logging, and more safeguards.
Retail CRM
As customer journeys are becoming less linear, we plan CRM integration with numerous touchpoints that can provide bits of insights into customer behavior, likes and dislikes.
Manufacturing CRM
We can create a mobile-compatible CRM system for convenient field work and on-site negotiations with customers and business partners.
Ecommerce CRM
We offer to integrate your ecommerce CRM with a web analytics tool to collect customer behavioral data and let you use it for laser-targeted marketing and communication.
