If these applications are embedded within wearable computing devices, businesses can modify and improve their customer relationship management strategy based on real-time information about customers and can engage with them on a more personalized level.
However, not all businesses may benefit from a CRM software. This is especially true for businesses that work on a highly standardized customer interaction model. For instance, a process-driven sales channel might not be a major concern for a small-scale organization. Similarly, a large-scale organization may demand a robust CRM capable of driving the business as well as addressing customer queries. In addition, security concerns are likely to exist in a centralized data server environment, which may discourage businesses dealing with critical business or consumer data from adopting such solutions. For instance, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regulation levies heavy penalties on organizations in case they are unable to provide privacy protections to all their customers.
