What Challenges do Christina and Marcus face with legacy plug-ins?
1. Need to access Outlook Web Access or Citrix/Terminal Services and sync their CRM information
2. Need support for highly mobile users - so disconnected they can’t benefit from the Outlook plug-in
3. Need native sync to iPad, iPhone, BlackBerry, Android, or ActiveSync for users who need to access their CRM information, opportunities, cases, quotes on their mobile devices
4. Need to synchronise recurring appointments
5. They use Macs and one department uses GroupWise (no plug-ins available)
… Challenges
6. They have users in two departments who need to synchronize with more than one instance of their CRM and one team that needs to access two different CRMs
7. They need to synchronise custom objects and fields

What do Users Want/Expect in a CRM?
