Sage CRMA leading solution for sales organizations
“Sage CRM has strong SFA functionality, an intuitive UI and affordable pricing.”
Gartner 2014
“SMB sales organizations will find Sage CRM to be a sound choice with broad functionality and low cost.”
Gartner 2013Source: Gartner Magic Quadrant for Sales Force Automation,

Info-Tech evaluated seven competitors in the small enterprise CRM market, including the following notable performers:
Champions:
• Sage CRM offers a host of deployment options, a modernized UI that provides a true mobile experience, and some social functionality that differentiates the product from competitors.
• Salesforce.com provides the most comprehensive feature set with three of its popular products: Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and Marketing Cloud.
Value Award:
• Sage CRM has the lowest TCO on the market and offers the most bang-for-the-buck, including a comprehensive feature set, usability, and architecture.
Trend Setter Award:
• SugarCRM ships with an innovative forecasting engine that allows sales agents to predict the most effective strategy for meeting quotas by trying various “what if” scenarios.
1. Lack of social creates a “ripple” effect hurting vendors’ commodity features.
In 2013, Info-Tech expects vendors to incorporate social capabilities into their commodity sales, marketing, and service management features. Some social capabilities are still unavailable from certain vendors or they require third-party add-ons. Organizations may need to acquire these capabilities elsewhere.
2. Mobile is improving, but employee-to-employee collaboration remains weak.
2012 marked an improvement in mobile tools; SMBs with high collaboration needs should consider third-party solutions.
3. SaaS is the norm, not the exception.
The majority of small enterprise CRM vendors profiled by Info-Tech offer hosted deployment models, and some forego the on-premise deployment altogether.
