1-to-Many with Any—Connect Your Customers and Accounts in Multiple Ways

The best CRM tools evolve to adapt to new internal processes, channels, and systems — to put your customer or prospect at the center. With this release, Pipeliner CRM has turned the classic Account-to-Contacts model on its head. We call it “1-to-Many with Any.” This clever engineering enables customers to associate one Contact to Multiple Accounts,  and designate a Primary Contact or Account for any of them. So if your Contacts overlap your Accounts, no problem! Users have context for today’s complex relationships, as they evolve. This “People First” approach delivers true business value, as Pipeliner CRM represents true relationships as they exist in the real world.

Here’s what this means to you:

• People talk to people, not Accounts, even if we are discussing a given company and a specific opportunity.
• Sometimes (more often in today’s world), people are associated with more than one company over the lifetime of your relationship. This feature makes those associations airtight.
• Effortless interactions support lifetime loyalty, referrals, and evangelism about you and your product or service.
• Confusion is not an option in a competitive business environment.

Pipeliner CRM provides context while maintaining a crystal clear visibility into your relationships!

Pivot Tables (Reports on Steroids)

Pivot tables are an advanced method for comparing data and sharpening insights across multiple data sets. Crunch the numbers any which way. As if Reports weren’t easy and powerful enough, we’ve now cracked the code on adding the power of the Pivot to an easy drop-down menu. With a Pivot, you can compare with multiple variants (e.g., How well did your Sales Team in Europe do vs. Americas with regard to total units sold in June?) That information is now less than 3 clicks away.

You set how often and what to be notified about, facilitating better cross-company awareness to what matters.
