With a Cloud (Software-as-a-Service/ SaaS) solution, you don’t need a server or technical expertise on your side. You simply log into the cloud-based CRM in your Internet browser and you’re ready to go. All information resides on the vendor’s server.

However, you must be online at all times. If your Internet connection fails, you will not be able to access your data.

With an On-premise solution, you own the software and it is hosted physically at your location. Thus, you will have direct access to the servers if you want to integrate with other customer applications. Moreover, you won’t have to deal with recurrent subscription charges.

However, you will need to have in-house IT personnel and purchase the necessary hardware and software, as well as incur higher upfront costs.

What operational process and workflows we lack and need to add?

Who in our company is going to use CRM? How many users do we need?
