A Salesforce alternative built around how you sell.
Salesforce can be shaped to almost any process, usually with admins, developers and add-on licenses. When the CRM has become a platform you maintain, a system built around how you sell and deliver can be simpler.
Signs you've outgrown Salesforce
- Sales and operations work in different systems, joined by exports.
- Paid add-ons fill gaps in the core product.
- Only an admin or partner can change a workflow.
- Seats are paid for by people who barely use them.
Salesforce compared with a system you own
| Salesforce | thinkbridge | |
|---|---|---|
| How it fits | Shaped with configuration, admins and add-on licenses | Built around how you sell, deliver and bill |
| Who owns it | You license it per seat | You own the code, the data model and the business logic |
| Connected to operations | Through integrations and exports | Sales, delivery and finance share one data model |
| After go-live | Changes need an admin or a partner | Managed care keeps improving it; low-risk changes ship to a beta you approve |

Can we keep Salesforce and fix the gaps instead?
Yes. thinkbridge can build the pieces around your CRM and connect them.
