Reply to: What is meant by an "agnostic CRM system".

[eek]

Stuff that its in the Cloud based , doesn't get more whale-songy than that!

Agnostic Cloud Based, ECO green, paradigm shifting industry leading CRM. do I get the job, I may consider a salary as low as £250,000.

oh I feel dirty!

Given the crap salesmen write in crm systems when given guidence on what should be in that field a nosql system that allowed any old rubbish in would be a real selling point to them.

The fact they couldn't get the information out afterwards without expensive custom report development would just be an unfortunate side benefit.

SAAS based???

This does give me a mischievous idea though.

Let's create five new 'terminological' terms that don't exist and then make a concerted effort to get them into buzzword bingo common language in the next 3 months.

Suggestions?

It means "without knowledge"

(well, the word agnostic does)

There are a fair few crm systems I've seen over the years which qualify then. Usually more due to user error rather than programmer's design.

Just come across it in some literature and have no idea what it means.

Erm, this thread is number one for it - in four minutes, think that is a record

Awesome!

I confess, I invented the term. By accident, dodgy typing in the technical overview. It's supposed to say diagnostic.

Trouble is, the marketing director saw it before I had the chance to correct it, and he started thumping the table shouting "YES! YES! YES!".

There was no turning back after that.

It means some ****wit manager has been let loose on the documentation

An agnostic CRM can only be installed on a "fence" based platform.

does it have to be installed in two parts?

one on either side?

[Freamon]

You might have something there.

I have come across at least one CMS and several themes that were heavily into promoting some church or other.

Platform agnostic seems most appropriate for a CRM.

No, it's a CRM system that isn't sure about the existence of God either way.

Probably the best kind, I don't want my software being too opinionated.

It means "This sounds good so we can charge you 50k for a piece of software a graduate wrote in a week"

It means when it goes live you cannot pray that it is going to work. Have to use some other certified method to get it through the final gate such as crossing fingers or kissing a rabbits foot.

HTH....

One that doesn't believe in God?
