Summary |
| Microsoft’s earlier promotion of Outlook as a
“Personal Information Manager” created the impression
amongst users that Outlook was only intended to manage one’s
personal contacts and was not suited as the basis for a corporate-wide
Customer Management System. Hopefully this article has rectified some
of these misconceptions and shown that, given that so much of one’s
day-to-day customer interaction is initiated from within Outlook,
Outlook coupled with Exchange or SQL Server is the perfect environment
for one’s all important Customer database. For an example of
an Outlook-based CRM system, please have a look at MX-Contact (www.mxcontact.com). |
