xRM (Anything Relationship Management)

Catherine Eibner

xRM is the natural evolution of CRM. Businesses are expanding their use of new generation CRM solutions to manage a wider range of scenarios, including asset management, prospect management, citizen management, and many more. Microsoft CRM sits on the .NET platform and because of that, it is much more than a traditional CRM product. Instead, think of Microsoft CRM is as a rapid development application with out of the box CRM functionality. The purpose of this session is to better understand Microsoft's CRM strategy and how you get to market first with world class business solutions.
