Executive Summary
Forrester evaluated leading customer service management software vendors across approximately 180 criteria and found that Entellium, Microsoft, Oracle Siebel CRM, Oracle Siebel CRM On Demand, salesforce.com, and SAP are Leaders for customer record-centric products; eGain, KANA Software, RightNow Technologies, and Talisma are Leaders for customer interaction-centric products; and Graham Technology, Onyx, and Pegasystems are Leaders for business process-centric products. Within the customer record-centric category, Infor, Maximizer Software, NetSuite, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle Peoplesoft Enterprise CRM, SageCRM, Sage SalesLogix, and SugarCRM are Strong Performers. Among interaction-centric products, ATG, FrontRange Solutions, KNOVA, and Numara Software are Strong Performers. Amdocs and Chordiant are Strong Performers within the process-centric category. Differing requirements within an individual company necessitate a careful evaluation of the specific capabilities and individual strengths of each product and probably require the use of more than one tool to solve the full range of customer service management needs.
