Aplicor Takes Part in CRM Idol Contest

Aug. 19, 2011 - PRLog -- The CRM Idol competition starts this week. If you aren't aware, here's the basic rundown.

It's the brainchild of Paul Greenberg, who is no stranger to the speaking circuit and a believer in making CRM entertaining. Idol, as the name implies, is a competition focused on emerging companies, and its purpose is to identify one of the hottest emerging CRM companies on the planet, much like its namesake looks for entertainment talent.

There are 60 companies competing in the North American division, and more in Europe and other parts." I am one of the judges. Our job is to take a one-hour briefing, which will include a presentation and demo from these emerging stars", said Denis Pombriant. "To help them prepare for this big event, Paul has recruited an army of people from many walks of life, each of whom has direct experience with CRM, to coach the new entrants in how to deal with Homo analystii, in case it's their first time."

The Judges will be posting their analyses of these companies' products and positioning within 48 hours of the briefing on the official CRMIdol site, www.crmidol.com.  "This should be a lot of fun and I am looking forward to it, though the pace for judges is fast. We're taking four briefings per day for most of two weeks in order to get through all the contestants and to enable us to render our verdict in September", said Pombriant

Aplicor will be featuring it's latest product, Cloud Suite 7.  It is a full cloud business suite that reaches beyond traditional SaaS to drive business agility by combining full CRM functionality with ERP for financial management – all in a seamless cloud business suite.
