Thema Consulting has
upgraded to the latest version of Soffront CRM. “We have found
Soffront CRM to be feature-rich and flexible, allowing us to improve
the workflow and integration of our help desk and software
development,” said Francesco Mollisi, senior consultant at THEMA
Consulting, SA. “In addition, the features included in Soffront Help
Desk are robust and useful--features such as email notification,
statistics, query, and report manager.”
Thema Consulting originally selected Soffront because it is web and
Oracle based and because of its customization capabilities. “We have
stayed with Soffront and continue to upgrade the software because it
is easy to configure and customize.” – added Mollisi.
“Soffront CRM allows a user to add fields on the fly, modify the
views of each object, add new database tables, link to other parts
of the system and create workflows-all without writing a single line
of code,” explained Manu Das, Soffront’s president and founder.
“When these changes are completed, the system automatically
generates all the code that is needed–a unique approach in the CRM
industry not available in other systems.
