Case Study: Insource Performance Solutions

Insource Integrates SugarCRM with InsideView, Miller Heiman and Social Data Channels to Gain a Competitive Edge
Our solution had to conform to the behaviors at Insource. We did not want to change our practices to fit the solution. Once all the cards were on the table including cost, there was no comparison - the cost effectiveness was great between Sugar and its competitors.
Chip Meyers, Sales Operations Manager, Insource

Business Issue:

Insource Performance Solutions is an on-premise service provider who refines, manages and executes labor-intensive processes for manufacturing and distribution facilities. After a period of extensive growth, the company realized that its current solution, Salesforce.com, existed only as a sales automation tool and could not support Insource's dynamic requirements. It needed a complete solution that could improve the company's ability to serve its customers and make Insource an invaluable resource to them.

Requirements:

  • A web-based system that could work as a sales force automation tool and be expandable to a customer relationship management tool.
  • User friendly interface to allow for significant adoption across the company.
  • Flexibility to customize to its business process and the option to move to on-site deployment as the company expanded.
  • Easily integrate with existing systems InsideView and Miller Heiman.

Solution:

Insource worked with Sugar solution partner, BrainSell and deployed Sugar Professional with an on-demand instance to get up and running quickly. It then integrated its solution with InsideView and Miller Heiman. This has resulted in a seamless integration that has supported user adoption from the ground up. And, with Sugar Professional, Insource also has the option to move to an on-site deployment down the road, which was a key consideration.

Benefits:

  • Reduced implementation costs and maximized Sugar's speed-to-value.
  • Improved campaign management for lead generation and client communication programs with Sugar's functionalities.
  • Gained real-time insight into customer relationship developments with SalesView integration.
  • Gained competitive advantage with merger of social media and CRM data into a single format.
