    Question: Tell me why WinSharkcrm is so different to other crm's?

    Answer: Primarily the crm solutions in today's market are split into two categories, enterprise level solutions, capable of handling in excess of 100,000 customers and 100's of users usually outside the budget of the smaller business. Then there are those systems aimed towards the smaller organisation at a much reduced cost, normally because they do not contain the features or maybe cannot handle the volumes. More often than not, both types of application are aimed at the sales or marketing departments ignoring the needs of the other people within an organisation. WinShark crm fills the gap, assisting all departments within a business looking for software that can grow alongside the company itself.
