Press Release:
Move Designed to Help Customers in the Wake of Recent Currency Fluctuations
CUPERTINO, Calif.– July 18, 2016 – SugarCRM Inc., the company that enables businesses to create extraordinary customer relationships with the most empowering, adaptable and affordable CRM solution on the market, announced today that it will now accept the British Pound Sterling and the euro for customer orders. Because of the ongoing economic impact of Brexit, SugarCRM updated how it processes payments to give UK customers the option to place orders and pay the company in US dollars, euros or British pounds and other European customers the option to pay in US dollars or euros.
“Because of the uncertainty of the financial markets in the aftermath of the Brexit vote, we felt the right thing to do was to work with our UK and European customers and partners to provide them the option to pay in local currencies,” said Steve Valenzuela, chief financial officer at SugarCRM. “As we have grown as a company and increased our sales to enterprise customers, we have an increasing number of customers signing multi-year agreements. By offering pricing in local currency, we can provide these customers with greater cost certainty over the life of their subscription.”
Provident CRM will continue to provide all of our clients, both future and present, the option to pay in either Euro, British Pound or US Dollar.
SugarCRM also introduced Sugar 7.7. This latest version of its CRM platform combines best-in-class business process management (BPM) with a consumer-grade user experience across all devices to automate complex business processes and help people “connect i2i” — individual-to-individual. New Advanced Workflow tools in Sugar 7.7 allow non-technical users to automate and optimize even the most complex business practices, resulting in heightened customer experiences, improved productivity and reduced operating costs.
