Experience with Insight as CRM

[Leonie C_ Breitmoser]

Hello folks,

My company is considering to use the plugin Insight as CRM. We currently run our quotation management process in Jira Software successfully.

The old CRM system is a swamp in Microsoft Dynamics 365. Nobody really knows how to work with and the setup is just a nightmare.

We already gathered requirements for a new CRM. And now I got the task as jira admin to give my recommendation about the insight plugin. Which I am not familiar with. 

The new challenges are:

• Is the system really meant for CRM Usage or do we have to customize it too much?
• How much time and effort should we plan for a clean setup?
• Does it fit into a planned future-oriented tool chain (ERP connection)?

Does anybody have similar challenges to tackle and maybe has a word of advice for me? 

Any suggestions or operative experiences with the plugin as CRM?

I look forward to some helpful answers. 

Cheers,

Leonie

Hi Leonie,

have you found already an answer to your questions? Or how did you decide regarding CRM? I would be also interested in it.

Thanks,

Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,

we are using Insight now - but not for CRM. It didn't match our requirements and we found a solution in an already 'in use tool' in the company.

However, since we have our inquiry and quotations management in Jira we are currently working on getting a proper handshake between the other tool and Insight. We hope that we can have the CRM Master data in the other tool and work with them in Jira anyway. That would increase our business Intelligenz a lot.

Best,

Leonie
