The challenge

Materion's previous system was slow to connect and produced call reports only after a lengthy manual process. Only about half of its global sales team was actively using the tool, limiting visibility into leads and new business orders.

The solution

Materion selected the Sugar platform for its configurable dashboards, new-business-order tracking, and real-time data, deployed via Sugar's On-Demand cloud. The rollout included face-to-face training for the entire global sales team across six countries.

It is a great system to manage leads and conversions. It has a best-in-class mobile app with real-time access to customer data.
