"In CRM kudos have go to Anthony Lye and his team for their top to tail work with the Siebel and CRM On-Demand suites and the dogged determination to prove the necessity - even desirability - of hybrid premise-based and on-demand approaches to CRM...The CRM team is bristling with innovations for large and small customers -announcing twelve new products, eighty customer driven enhancements, thirty-one new features, a REST API, CRM availability in Microsoft Outlook, and a new Siebel version coming this year."
"... Oracle CRM stood far out far ahead of the rest of the Oracle Apps pack....CRM at Oracle seems to remain their star application, probably because it is, in 2009, the fastest growing application suite at Oracle and probably will be the Oracle revenue leader this year. That's because they've understood what businesses need when it comes to being successful with customers. "
"They showed stand-alone and mobile interfaces that were really innovative displays of data that were, well - not your traditional CRM systems. Very creative interfaces...Integration was the second area that has been overhauled. Cross-channel and Cross-function work has been improved by adding several ways to address the channels and each of the individual functions, making it easy to transfer data back-and-forth, and - more important keeping the state of the transaction throughout....a brand new set of solutions for Social CRM that leverage the model of implicit and explicit relationships that Siebel created in their Personas data model that treat Social Media asjust channels."
