Connected customers help organizations maintain a complete customer profile, needs, and ability to customize for the individual customer. With this, customers become active participants in the whole ecosystem. The usage of real time data becomes a reality with IoT data transmitted over the internet and analyzed by the CRM system. It gives a better understanding of the customer relationship aspect, helping organizations to operate within healthy financial margins.
