The main focus of a CRM system is to help ensure that customer needs are met in a timely and efficient manner. This will help your company achieve high levels of customer satisfaction with every customer interaction. By having CRM integrated with an ERP system, it is possible to gain and maintain a '360 degree view' of your customers which helps identify your most important and profitable customers, as well as your less profitable and more costly ones. 

The Fitrix Customer Relationship Management module is designed to meet the most critical needs of the three main ‘front office’ constituents:

• Sales,
• Marketing, and
• Service/support personnel.

Since companies often vary greatly as to how these operations are organized, all of Fitrix CRM’s functions within each of these areas may or may not be utilized by your company, or might be implemented in a ‘hybrid’ manner to best meet your business objectives. Certain functions like Activity Management might be used by all users in all of these departments, or just those in one or two. 

There are sophisticated applications that are designed to be ‘best in class’ individual or suite-based CRM solutions that include more specialized capabilities than Fitrix CRM has at this time. Fitrix CRM is designed to meet the core CRM needs of the typical discrete manufacturer or wholesale distributor, and to provide close integration between these core CRM capabilities and the other ERP functionality provided within the Fitrix software suite. With this CRM/ERP integration, a ‘360 degree view’ of your customers and their individual impact on your operations and profitability can be accurately measured and optimized over time.
