You can assign a probability of closing the sale at each stage of your business sales cycle including prospecting, lead qualification, demonstrations, quotes and the sale.

WAP Solution—Mobilize to Make Every Sale
Wireless Application Protocol (WAP)-enabled, SageCRM provides the ability to access all aspects of the system from a WAP enabled cellular phone or other WAP-enabled devices. Today keeping mobile sales professionals connected and in the know represents your greatest challenge. With Accpac CRM, your team has on-the-spot access to the resources they need to close every sale. When they’re online, the Web client provides a real-time link to their SageCRM data. Even without access to a cable or phone connection the team has access to pertinent real-time information via a personal digital assistant (PDA), WAP device or wireless phone. If your sales staff requires offline access to SageCRM data our SOLO synchronization utility consolidates the information quickly and easily, providing your sales people multiple options to access the same data.
Graphical Analysis and Reporting Forecast, Report and React… Intelligently
SageCRM provides point-and-click reporting and graphs that allow sales teams access to data for on-the-spot analysis and evaluation. With Accpac CRM you’ll always have the real time information you need. Start by assessing new leads, quoted clients, demographics and potential deals in the pipeline, then analyze your sales efforts and use that knowledge to refine your strategy. For example, graphical forecasting allows you to filter and report data by account manager, region, opportunity, probability, any way you choose to do so. Use system default reports or easily create new reports with a reporting wizard that walks you through the process prompting you to select the data you would like to see and where you would like to see it. SageCRM lets you analyze trends and evaluate historical data to see what’s working and adjust what is not.

Easily setup and maintained from within SageCRM, this utility allows synchronization of data from the central database at the office or via the Internet. With the simple push of a button, the synchronization uploads and downloads data—including updating documents to Accpac CRM Document Library. SageCRM provides sales personnel a synchronization tool to keep the data they need even when a network or wireless device is not available.
