When you operate a contact or call center, you’re in the business of making the customer feel heard, understood, and appreciated. Whether your center specializes in customer service, sales, or lead generation, your performance directly impacts your business’s revenue, whether through sales or customer satisfaction scores.
With the hundreds of calls you answer and make, it can be tough to follow up and respond to each customer’s needs. You’d need sheets upon sheets of data to keep track of even one long-term customer.
That’s where a CRM like Nutshell can help. Learn more about how you can boost the satisfaction rate and positive responses for your call center with a centralized database of unlimited contact and data storage, intuitive communication and task management, sales automation, and other advantageous features.
Call center agents often feel pressured to immediately know, understand, and meet customer needs within seconds of them calling. While it’s not impossible to gather crucial information to engage with customers, the wrong tools can often make things feel much too slow.
Agents must move from their call platforms to look through help desk data or spreadsheets to find valuable customer data, leaving their caller in silence. You’ve surely experienced being on the other end of the line when an impatient caller leaves irate responses or hangs up abruptly. Or your caller asks another question, meaning you have to wade through your data again. More time lost. More opportunities for customer dissatisfaction.
What if you had a single platform from which you made calls, and everything you needed to know about the customer was right in front of you—name, place of work, address, past inquiries, even notes left by previous agents? How much smoother could the customer support, lead generation, or sales process be?
All this is possible with good customer relationship management (CRM) software. A CRM platform makes nurturing and building customer relationships easier with features that support fast responses and tailor-made service. With a CRM, you can enjoy features such as:
If you’re convinced a good CRM is the answer to your call center problems, you’re in the right place. Numerous CRM solutions are available for call centers, and it’s up to you to ensure you’re getting the best features at a favorable price. At a minimum, a good CRM for call centers should have the following features.
A CRM with high-quality contact management features will put your agents at ease as they field calls from customers and prospects or do outbound calls. They’ll never worry about having outdated information, and intelligent search functions allow them to find the right contact instantly while on calls to best serve their caller’s needs.
Call center agents often deal with the same customers on many occasions. You need solid communication management features to handle repeat callers and longtime customers, so your agents don’t have to rely on Post-it notes and their memory.
Instead, agents can depend on a CRM to handle the task of recalling past interactions while they do what only they can do—use their communication skills to leave a great impression.
Other important CRM communication and task management features include:
Let your agents focus on what they do best—engaging with clients and prospects and building crucial business relationships—while your CRM automates the more tedious aspects of call center management.
As you move your call recipients from lead to sale status or from confused to satisfied customer, your team can benefit from a visual view of the entire process.
CRM pipeline management allows you to see the customer journey in a way that most benefits your team and business model.

J'ai utilisé Act, Goldmine et Salesforce dans le passé, et j'ai trouvé que Nutshell était le plus facile à utiliser et à configurer des champs personnalisés. Je recommanderais Nutshell à d'autres personnes intéressées par un CRM facile à apprendre et à naviguer.

Nous avons quitté Hubspot pour Nutshell parce que Hubspot était trop complexe. Nutshell crée des logiciels pour les humains.

Lorsque nous avons évalué les CRM, le seul facteur décisif entre Nutshell et Salesforce se résumait au temps de mise en route et au prix. Nutshell l'emporte sur les deux tableaux (avec une marge considérable). Salesforce était 10 fois plus cher par mois pour ce que nous voulions.
