Soffront CRM Q&A

Customer of the month - Healthtec Software

HealthTec Software (www.foxmed.com), a leading provider of medical and dental practice management software announced that it has upgraded to the latest version of Soffront CRM, version 8.0, to improve tracking and management of their Sales and Marketing processes and to implement a full-featured customer portal on their website.

HealthTec originally purchased Soffront CRM in 1995 for tracking design requests and program fixes. In 2002, HealthTec added the Soffront Helpdesk and Sales modules to improve technical support as well as customer service and sales functionality. With Soffront’s release of Soffront CRM version 8.0 in 2003, HealthTec added even more functionality and purchased the Soffront Customer Portal module.

“Over the past three years, our business model has changed dramatically—from a reseller driven model to a direct sales driven model with resellers,” explained Andre Fidellow, Vice President of HealthTec. “Soffront CRM is so flexible and easy to customize, that the software changed with us to meet our growing needs. In the past two years, we have re-worked the flow of Soffront CRM to better handle this new “end-user based” support model.”

HealthTec is implementing the Soffront Customer Portal to improve efficiency and allow customers the option of "self-support" with 24/7 availability.
The Soffront Customer Portal will allow us to offer a full-featured portal to our customers,” concluded Fidellow. “We can now offer more training and technical support content, resulting in a higher level of service.”
