Introducing Sugar Sell Editions: A New Experience for Sales Automation in the Cloud
Until recently, SugarCRM offered multiple sales force automation (SFA) solutions, including Sugar Sell, Professional, and Enterprise. Sugar also offered multiple add-on products, making it even harder for customers and prospects to figure out what they need to grow their business.
It was hard to figure out what to buy, and customers and prospects had trouble understanding what they were getting out of each product.
It’s time to make things easier: With the introduction of the new Sugar Sell editions, we are significantly simplifying our growing solution portfolio for Sales Automation in the cloud and reducing the complexity of the price list—making it easier to buy!
More Benefits for Customers
This update will bring benefits to both new and our existing SugarCloud customers:
- Get more for less: Customers will enjoy additional capabilities without buying and paying extra for several add-on products.
- Simpler choice: We’re making it straightforward for all customers and prospects to know which edition they need from the get-go and what they are getting when they upgrade.
- Grow as you go: As your organization grows, so can your CRM. You can easily upgrade from one Sell edition to the next if you want to benefit from more advanced capabilities.
- Free conversion: Our existing customers using SugarCloud Professional or Enterprise editions will be converted at no cost to Sell Advanced with many additional value-add capabilities—and they will keep all functionality that they have today.
A pilot of the conversion program was completed successfully in February. Check out this blog to find out more about the free conversion starting in late April.
No Cloud? No Problem! Sugar Enterprise customers continue to enjoy no-compromise CRM with maximum control. And all Professional customers will receive Enterprise licenses.
So, no customer will be left behind. All customers will benefit from this program, and there are no changes to the commercial terms and conditions for existing contracts.
To make it even easier for you to make the choice, read on to find out what you’re getting with each new Sell edition.
