Marketing automation creates a beneficial bind between service and sales organizations. The software should be able to deliver on a range of goals in multiple environments (such as business-to-business and business-to-consumer). Often, the software is expected to be able to identify market segments and target them in as many ways as possible. Marketing automation software should be able to identify customer prospects by name, location, and buying habits. In addition, it must have appropriate analytical components to support reporting and prediction of customer behavior so that it can improve future campaigns.

e-CRM
购买CRM for Financial and Insurance Markets软件评估报告以了解详细的分析结果。
CRM versus eCRM--there has been a lot of debate surrounding the differences, or lack of differences, between what is called CRM and what is called eCRM. Is eCRM just web-enabled CRM? Is it merely symptomatic of companies hoping to strengthen their proposition or valuation? Or is eCRM fundamentally different? Clearly the Internet and e-business are responsible for the e in eCRM. There are significant differences in the skills one needs and the things one can do with eCRM as opposed to CRM but the fundamental principles are very similar.

Product Technology

This criterion defines the technical architecture of the product, and the technological environment in which the product can run successfully. Sub-criteria include product and application architecture, software usability and administration, platform and database support, application standards support, communications and protocol support and integration capabilities. Relative to the other five evaluation criteria, best practice selections place a lower relative importance, on the product technology criterion. However, this apparently lower importance is deceptive, because the product technology criterion usually houses the majority of the selecting organization's mandatory criteria, which usually include server, client, protocol, and database support, application scalability and other architectural capabilities. The definition of mandatory criteria within this set often allows the client to quickly narrow the long list of potential vendors to a short list of applicable solutions that pass muster relative to the most basic mandatory selection criteria.
During the process of product selection a great deal of attention is given to the functional capabilities of the software being evaluated. While this aspect is obviously important, ignoring the technical mechanisms by which the software actually operates can be fatal to a project (see Great Product: Too Bad The Architecture Doesn't Fit ).
