But times have changed. Technology now exists to help enterprise application users solve the customer data management conundrum.
That technology is the OracleŽ Customer Data Hub. Developed with today’s enterprise ERP and CRM customer in mind, Customer
Data Hub is a fully integrated data management solution that centralizes, de-duplicates and synchronizes customer data across
all key enterprise systems. In short, it provides applications users and managers a single source of customer truth. Apex
IT’s ERP Group understands how to leverage the Customer Data Hub to maximize its true potential. And as a value add
to our friends in the Oracle applications user community, we’ve prepared a presentation to help explain the new Customer
Data Hub product. |
