What is InfoServ CRM?

Traditionally, Home Office goes hand in hand with Cloud solutions. InfoServ CRM is being offered as a Cloud communication software – based in Microsoft Azure’s Cloud.

Home Office – Is it suitable for every business

We must agree that Home Office is not suitable for all companies and every business process. Home Office is especially suitable for all companies working in the Services Industry. Remote work, however, is only possible if your business processes are digitalized.
