With Cirrus Insight Mobile, users can do the following:
- See customer context in the inbox;
- See who opens email with real-time notifications;
- Save email to Salesforce;
- Create new leads, contacts, and accounts;
- Set reminders to follow up;
- Schedule meetings and events;
- Log calls to Salesforce; and
- Create/update opportunities and cases.
"Multitasking on phones is especially difficult, and users told us that a mobile inbox connected to CRM would be a killer app. They could get work done all in one place without having to switch between multiple apps," said Brandon Bruce, chief operating officer and co-founder of Cirrus Insight, in a statement. "Email is the primary communication platform for connecting with customers. We're constantly seeking new ways to bring work tools into the inbox to enable our users to engage with their customers.
"During the beta of Cirrus Insight Mobile, we heard back from customers that the app increased mobile productivity by 25 percent and boosted Salesforce adoption by up to five times," Bruce said further. "We're excited to finally roll out Cirrus Insight Mobile to the rest of our customer base and all Salesforce users."
