About Really Simple Systems
Really Simple Systems provides hosted CRM to small and medium sized
organisations who want sales and marketing systems that are easy
to use and work immediately. The systems have been designed from the
ground up to be easy and fast to use, both for everyday users and for
managers. By delivering the system as a hosted application over the web
the burden of IT support is removed from the customer, and by using one common
database instead of multiple replicated databases distributing the
applications to multiple offices and remote users needs no additional local
software.
John Paterson, CEO & Founder
John
has used, implemented and overseen more CRM systems than he would care to
admit to as a salesperson, sales manager, sales director, COO and CEO. As
CEO of CRM vendor Oxygen Solutions it was reinforced that the key to
successful CRM implementation was very little to do with technology but all
to do with getting the users to use it the system properly, and the key to
getting people to use it properly was to make it as easy-to-use and as fast as
possible. It was off the back of these
experiences that he saw the gap in the market for a simple, straightforward
hosted CRM system that was aimed specifically at small and medium sized
organisations. Previous companies that John has run include Systems Union
Group (mid-market ERP), Oxygen Solutions (CRM) and Zeus Technology (Internet
infrastructure).
Simon Hubbard, Managing Director, Australia
Simon has been in the IT industry for more than 20 years and in that time has worked in a variety of roles including services and support, product marketing, account management and sales. Having used CRM systems he knows that any CRM system needs to be fast and simple to use otherwise at best it will have minimal information and at worst it will not be used at all! His background also gives him a better understanding of what different departments need from a CRM solution and how these need to interact to provide value to the business.
Prior to this role Simon was with Systems Union and was responsible for the sale and implementation of Back Office solutions for hotels across Asia Pacific.
In his spare time Simon enjoys cycling and taking part in triathlons. One day he hopes to finish the swim leg in front of at least one other person!!
