Indeed! It makes me wonder “Why” — Why do do clients have multi-page RFI’s for CRM? Why do all the CRM software come so loaded with features that most users say they won’t use? Is the clients? The vendors? The business models? Or the technology?

How many CRMs are “truly” simple these days? Sometimes basic Contact Management is all a company uses a CRM for anyway. A huge feature set of bells & whistles can actually hinder CRM adoption.
