Read More Dealing with a small software company or an artisan software company? By: Karl Mamer 1/28/2013 11:46 AM Sometimes we're conditioned to think companies ignore suggestions.

By: Karl Mamer 9/6/2011 1:25 PM One of BlueCamroo's strengths in the cloud marketplace is it brings a lot of business productivity cloud apps together into a unified package: CRM, project management, customer support, social CRM, social networking reputation managements, email marketing. Well, I could go on. But you get the idea. That said, BlueCamroo is an application you need to invest some time learning. We've done a lot to create a real world default setup and create a number of setup wizards that get BlueCamroo customized for your office environment. We've designed BlueCamroo so you can start using it out of the box for your basic CRM needs and then "ramp up". We spend a considerable amount of time "pouring cold blood" on the interface and wondering how to make it intuitive. Support

Read More BlueCamroo supports the entire sales lifecycle By: Karl Mamer 1/25/2011 2:00 PM Yes, at some point you're likely going to need to support your product. If you're a small business, especially a new one, you might not have considered support issues. Things go wrong or clients don't always understand how to use features. Even before you make final delivery, if you're involving your clients in each stage of delivery, clients might have issues they need to report. Support
