Prior to developing our own SAP CRM solution to meet the needs of the Waste and Recycling industry, I did a comprehensive study of other available software solutions to meet the demand and nature of this industry. While I naturally think our homegrown solution is a great one, our philosophy at iServiceGlobe is to offer the best solution for a customer’s unique business processes and needs. As a result, we never take a cookie cutter approach to our CRM solutions recommendations. While there are naturally some “best practices” common to every industry, we recognize the subtle differences between every company out there. That being said, since we offer both of the two most prominent Waste and Recycling CRM solutions out there, hopefully you can trust that my assessment is an unbiased one.
