I thought I'd start our blogging with the company's vision statement and the overall goal of CRM2Office.

Having worked in the CRM space since 1989 I have found it increasingly difficult to get make use of my CRM data quickly and effortlessly.  Even to complete the simplest of tasks such as merging a letter so that the name and address of the person I am writing to appears on the letter without having to re-type the damn thing each time and making stupid typos!

I've worked with over a dozen CRM systems in my time and all of them seem to become too engrossed in keeping up with the next new technology piece to arrive.  Whether its .NET, Web2.0, Cloud this and cloud that.  In the scrabble for innovation, the everyday needs of the user is forgotten.

So, onto our vision statement.

Our vision is to deliver solutions that connect Microsoft Office applications to a CRM system in 3 easy non-technical steps, in less than 90 seconds and that just work, delightfully and for less than $100.

Really its a no brainer.  How much time and effort have you expended trying to extract data, merge CSV files and data sources.  Whatever your charge out rates are or hourly income you only have to mess around for a few minutes before this system pays for itself.

The ultimate vision of the company is to become the global name for quality plug-in's that just work.  Over the coming months CRM2Office will be launching a suite of products which will integrate with a variety of systems including all of the following:

• MS Word plug-in for SugarCRM
• MS Word plug-in for Info@hand CRBM
• MS Outlook plug-in for SugarCRM
• MS Outlook plug-in for info@hand CRBM
• MS Excel plug-in for SugarCRM
• MS Excel plug-in for Info@hand CRBM
• MS Word plug-in for Joomla!

So, bookmark this page and come back soon!
