For many organizations, the success of customer relationship management stands or falls with the CRM system. You want one central place for all customer information, but also the flexibility to adapt processes and data to your needs. Aurea CRM has existed since 1988 and combines an integrated solution with innovative technology. Bluedesk is a Gold Partner of Aurea and is responsible for the Benelux on behalf of Aurea. We explain here why more and more organizations are choosing Aurea.
What makes Aurea unique?
- Flexible composition of modules In Aurea, you determine which functionalities you need. The system offers applications for sales, marketing, and service within a single environment, without the need for custom code. This allows you to start quickly and expand when necessary.
- Freedom in hosting – You choose where to store your data. Aurea is available in the cloud or on-premises, allowing you to decide where your data resides. This is beneficial for organizations with strict compliance rules.
- Quick to implement – Because the standard functionality already covers many processes and no additional programming work is required, Aurea can be implemented quickly. This means a lower investment and rapid value.
- One subscription, many possibilities – The platform includes solutions for integration, collaboration, analytics, and artificial intelligence. With these, you can optimize both internal collaboration and external customer contact.
- Mobile online & offline – You use the system on mobile, both online and offline. This is ideal for field service teams that want to maintain access to relevant customer data on the go.
Opportunities and benefits of Aurea CRM
With Aurea, you create a 360-degree customer view that goes beyond just sales. Because all customer-related activities, documents, and communication come together in one system, you gain insight from the initial lead to after-sales. The system also offers custom reports so you can always generate management information tailored to your needs. Think about:
- Better sales management – Support the entire sales process with pipeline management, forecasts, and follow-up tasks. Thanks to integration with marketing automation, you can warm up leads and transfer them directly to sales.
- Service and support – Use cases, service contracts, and field service functions to log and track service requests. Because everything is integrated, you avoid using disparate tools.
- Integrations and extensibility Aurea integrates with ERP systems, websites, and marketing tools. Through the Microsoft Teams and SharePoint integration, you can automatically follow up on tickets or opportunities in Teams and save documents as deeplinks in CRM.
- Analytics and AI - With built-in analysis tools and AI components, you gain insight into customer behavior, sales opportunities, and service performance.
Our approach to an Aurea implementation
Choosing a powerful system is one thing, but a successful implementation requires a proven approach. At Bluedesk, we always start with a Bluescana strategic session where we map out the current situation, bottlenecks, and ambitions. Immediately after the session, you will receive a roadmap with phases, and after two weeks, a detailed project plan.
Then we go through the five steps of our Blueprint for Growthstrategic sessions and goal setting, rapid setup of a solid foundation, configuration of your specific processes, user adoption, and finally management & optimization. This approach ensures a CRM solution that seamlessly integrates with your processes and grows with your organization.
Practical example
An example of the power of an integrated solution is the case of Leolux. With this designer furniture manufacturer, the CRM was linked to the ERP system, allowing production orders to be automatically generated from CRM and executed accurately. The link with production systems ensures real-time information on orders and inventory. Thanks to the mobile functionality, the field service and service departments have access to customer data anywhere - even without an internet connection. The combination of Aurea and the BlueDesk approach brought clarity and efficiency.
