It’s relatively simple,Level one - most all ERP and CRM packages have API’s for connecting customer data - name, location, contact, etc.Level two is if you want to share AR data, so the salesguy can tell if his customer is on credit hold or hasn’t paid a bill.Level three is connecting CRM Quotes/Sales Orders - not all CRM’s have this functionality and many sales order processes won’t fit every business - but it can be done, now we’re feeding pricing info from ERP to CRM and actual Sales Orders from CRM to ERP.All these are common functionalities and your normal consultants for both CRM and ERP should be able to accomplish them.In practice, the business office isn’t always very keen on letting junior salespeople change a customer address and letting those changes filter up to the business office - salesboy jr might be calling on a buyer at a secondary office location and the billing address should remain the same, but Jr doesn’t know this…And sending AR data, it’s really much easier for the Business Office to run AR aging and call or email the salesgal to do some collection activities for their one or two clients that may be behind.We mentioned the issue with sales order processes that don’t fit -So, very, very often we’ve done software evaluations for companies who say they are wanting integrated CRM/ERP - and we manage the process with that in mind, however, when it comes down to time to do the integration, most customers balk - it’s not that much information, there’s signNow risk and limited reward - even with NetSuite implementations where CRM and ERP are already integrated, there’s more often an effort to lock down features with security roles than to share a great deal of info -So talk carefully with the users and department heads up front, and you can save yourself a great deal of time.

When a new browser visits your website and hits a conversion point (signed up for a demo, downloaded whitepaper, etc.):- A lead will be created in CRM- Pass the CRM ID (email ID in this case) to the DMP directly or to your web analytics tool- So now Cookie ID and CRM ID are synced- Call the CRM and ask for all the data you need for the cookie ID (email ID)- Store data in your DMP. If storing in web analytics tool then send that data to DMPYou can create advanced segments in the DMP based on CRM data. For example, Give me all cookies where Potential Deal Value >= $150k and Org Size >= 500

I've thought about this since about 2006.As not only a co-founder and CEO of EchoSign, but a Salesforce customer for many years, you do wonder why everything isn't included.  Salesforce is the single largest software expense a sales-focused company will make.  Why doesn't it include e-signatures?  Why doesn't it have real lead scoring?  Why not a sales comp tool?  Why not real drip email marketing?  Why not a more robust email tool, period?  Why not robust de-duping?  Why only a basic quoting tool, not a rich proposal tool?  Why only limited content management tools?  There are so many Why don'ts? that that may be the answer right there ... so my simple answer is Salesforce is focused on its core and strategic expansions to its core, historically to the present.Having said that, there are at least 3 practical reasons:1.  First, e-signatures have a signNow legal element to them.   It's one thing for a start-up to claim their document signing tool is 100% legally E-SIGN complaint and binding under federal, state, European and international law.  It's quite another thing for a Fortune 500 company to take that on.  signNow did in acquiring EchoSign -- and that's not trivial.  It's a big deal.  No other F500 company has done this.  Ever.2.  Second, it's all about the workflow at this point. EchoSign and signNow are 100x richer products than they were 5 years ago, and Salesforce integration only increases that geometrically.  Neither product is just about document signing.  For example, Groupon has over 36,000 different contract generation/review/signature/workflow/trigger combinations using EchoSign. The signature is just the connecting piece.  This is really hard to replicate without a huge effort.  It can be done, but it's many years of effort and building 1000s of features.  Not just a JPEG of a signature.3. Is it really core? Historically contracts and signing them have been related to the core of CRM, but not really core. And Salesforce has often focused on building adjacent to the core (Support, Markering, Chatter, etc.) even more than the well built-out core CRM/SFA.Having said that, what if SFDC does decide to enter the space?  Given the complexity in #2, it makes a lot more sense to buy than build. There are only two serious players -- EchoSign and signNow.  There are other very tiny players, but their Salesforce integrations, if they exist, are rudimentary from a workflow perspective and not fully enterprise-ready, at least not today.  Ok so EchoSign and signNow ... EchoSign was acquired by signNow in 2011, so acquiring EchoSign per se is off the table.  Salesforce could in theory I guess buy just the Salesforce team/integration from signNow.  Actually, that's not a terrible idea.  Buying signNow is even harder.  While Salesforce has made a small investment there, the post-money in the last round was $500m, making an acquisition implausible.  Even if valuation were not an issue, only a small % of signNow's revenue is from the Salesforce integration, making an acquisition to only write off 80% of the customers and revenue (100% if they gave it away), odd.  Salesforce could just offer a very limited functionality and perhaps they will. But a basic functionality won't solve the need for a rich create/dynamic, multi-variable web contract/sign/collaboration/trigger/workflow solution that is what 90%+ of all the EchoSign and signNow Salesforce customers are really using.  For example, Salesforce has basic functionality with Quotes and Content.  But neither really has displaced the need for much richer products like Conga Composer, or even Box.  See, also, the Contracts tab which is very limited, and has in no way displaced the need for any vendors in the contract management space.It's just hard in a large company to build very rich, complex features that aren't in the core.  In the core, it's easy.

Not really sure what you’re asking -Most modern CRM packages have API’s for integration with ERP systems, sharing limited data including customer names, addresses, etc. Also payment and billing information - sometimes sales quotes or orders are configured in CRM and passed to ERP, but not often. Territories may be set in CRM and passed to ERP and in advanced cases, sales cycle data in CRM may feed forecasts in ERP - again not often.SaaS products are especially easy to integrate, ERP programs delivered through a SaaS model are often simple integrations. CRM packages are also SaaS delivered, Salesforce being the first, most obvious example, but almost every other major CRM has a SaaS model delivery.Hope that helps.

What is CRM?CRM at its simplest is systems and processes for managing a company’s interactions with current and potential customers. When we talk about CRM we usually are talking about CRM Software. CRM software is used to organise, automate and synchronise sales, marketing and customer service.CRM has developed to include all areas of the customer experience, keeping the customer happy and in turn keeping them loyal and more valuable to your business. It is the process of identifying potential leads/prospects, nurturing them and guiding them through the sales process to close the business. Once they are a customer it is ensuring that you maintain that relationship and encourage repeat business – either more frequent orders or higher value.What is ERP?Where CRM manages the customer, ERP is used to manage the business. ERP is a system for improving the efficiency of business processes. Like CRM, ERP allows for the rapid sharing of standardised information throughout all departments. Employees all enter information into the ERP system, creating a real-time, enterprise-wide snapshot. Problems in any area will automatically create alerts in other affected areas. This allows departments to begin planning for issues before they become a problem in that department. In short, by allowing the business to focus on the data, instead of the operations, ERP provides a method for streamlining business processes across the board.What’s the difference?ERP and CRM systems use different approaches to increase profitability. ERP focuses on reducing overheads and cutting costs. By making business processes more efficient, ERP reduces the amount of capital spent on those processes. CRM works to increase profits by producing greater sales volume.
