CRM Application

Building a CRM Application in 10 Quick Steps

In this book we’ll build a CRM (Customer Relations Management) application using AppFlower technology. Such a software might have various features to manage customer related issues, such as contacts, communications, sales or even technical support. CRM solutions can (among other things) greatly improve your company’s efficiency, but are usually not cheap to buy and even more expensive to develop. To mention a few well-known CRM’s on the market, there exists Microsoft Dynamics, SugarCRM, SalesForce and SAP

However, with AppFlower your options are different: you can not only develop such a tool yourself (eliminating the need of paying those high prices), but you can do this very quickly! Of course, CRM solutions differ greatly in features and complexity. The one we are going to build is a somewhat simpler, yet fully functional solution, suitable for managing all basic CRM needs: will track your clients, contact persons, deals and sales activities. Best of all, this software will be easily extensible too: once you’ve created it, you’ll be able to add new features and make it twice as powerful in just another couple of hours.

The CRM Tutorial

This tutorial has been split into 10 short chapters, each describing how to accomplish building an important component of our CRM application.
