MYOB expands enterprise suite
Business software vendor MYOB has expanded its business enterprise suite to include an integrated CRM module, in a move designed to help medium and large businesses feeling the pressure of growth.
MYOB general manager Julian Smith says the company’s research shows that two out of three medium-sized businesses are preparing for growth in the next 12 months.
"Many larger businesses have big plans and want to absorb the pressures of growth and accept the challenge of new markets, more staff and more customers,” Smith says.
"However, they are feeling the pressure of reaching and managing new customers.”
The CRM module integrates fully with MYOB’s existing EXO Business enterprise suite. Go here for more info.
