2. Built for Vertical Industries
Our tool is built specifically for vertical industries so little if any customization is necessary. Complex workflow and business rules are built into the product by AEC industry experts.
3. Built for the Future
Cosential has a clear vision for the future and a commitment to investing in innovation to benefit your business. Cosential's system integration, innovative use of technology and insider knowledge of the AEC industry help us create the most powerful tools available. Because we're a privately held company, we put our profits back into the development of faster, cutting edge products to keep our customers ahead of the curve.
4. No tools left out
Salesforce.com leaves out many of the most important tools for marketing and business development. These are add-ons from third parties driving the complexity and cost to the sky. Cosential includes many of the most important tools like website content management, website tracking, email marketing, email drip marketing, timesheets and project management to name a few.
5. More Powerful
Most CRM businesses are built on horizontal platforms which don't target the needs of a specific industry. Since we built a vertical tool, we have not had to make the compromises that our competitors have had to make. Our AEC vertical system is completely integrated which makes the user's experience faster and more effecient. Cosential was built from the ground up for your business and continues to find new and innovative solutions to make your experience faster and more effective.
