Frequently asked questions
Should we build a custom CRM or use Salesforce or HubSpot?
If your process is standard, an off-the-shelf CRM is usually faster and cheaper. A custom CRM pays off when you have unique workflows, need Arabic-first UX, or want to avoid per-seat licences as the team grows. We recommend the option that fits after a discovery session.
Can you migrate our data from Excel or an old CRM?
Yes. We clean, de-duplicate and migrate contacts, deals and history, then validate the data with your team before go-live.
Can the CRM work with WhatsApp?
Yes. We integrate the WhatsApp Business API so conversations, leads and follow-ups are logged against each contact automatically.
