Best On-Premise Small Business CRM Solutions for MS Windows.
Desktop CRM applications are usually on-premise or in-house CRM applications that run on a Client-Server network on your desktop. These on-premise CRM applications function on a Client-Server network architecture on your desktop. Companies will evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of SaaS/cloud/web-based alternatives in the coming years.
CRM programs can also be run on a peer-to-peer network where all the computers or workstations are equal. This is usually effective if you don’t have too many computers to network (up to five, but possibly several more) depending on how much data or traffic travels across your network. CRM databases are frequently intensive traffic and rapidly growing databases.
Don’t overlook CRM solutions for Microsoft Outlook, if your company is using it.
