FOCUS by Reynolds and Reynolds vs. Veeva CRM

It works because it's the only thing we have to use however Reynolds does not work well with others, I.E., third-party vendors, etc. When it's up for renewal I will strongly suggest we switch

Good for larger teams with a lot of activities and therefore a good justification for the investment. Great for 'as above' + the companies looking to integrate Veeva CRM with other Veeva offerings, such as Align, Inslight, Zinc/PromoMats etc. Not so great for smaller organisations or those with more slightly more restricting budgets.

• Daily work plan
• Detailed reports

• Commercial Cloud
• Sunrise UI
• Multi device support from browser, iOS devices

• Sometimes you cannot see the calls on the customer profile
• In my opinion, it is not easy to use
• I think the reporting can be overwhelming for some
• From experience, the appointments do not show up in the daily work plan

Incentivized

• There is no offline version of the app so it is hard for field staffs to access where internet connectivity is not strong
• Can be expensive specially for a smaller company as it is based on SAAS platform

I think overall it's not a good platform

Support is phenomenal however they have a ton of practice because people need to call them so often

We have always used Reynolds however I have seen other CRMs that are more user friendly

Better for field based medical personnel when recording Medical calls.

• Slows people down trying to learn it
• Every option in there costs more money so the executives do not want to pay for things such as click to call

• Oftentimes it is the field sales force that heavily influence the choice of the CRM solution. It appears that many of our field sales force prefer Veeva. Happy reps = more actively used CRM = clearer understanding of the reps' activities.
• Veeva offer 2 implementation versions - out of the box implementation (around 6-8 weeks to install) and 'all singing, all dancing' implementation (based on the length of your specific string). You can pick one and therefore influence your ROI accordingly.
• Again, as Veeva CRM is pretty much a de facto CRM solution, this is good for scalability if/when rolling it out across multiple regions/branches
