Service

CRM development for your company

Off-the-shelf CRMs (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce) often do not match real business processes — when you adapt them, you pay a subscription for features you do not use. Custom CRM development lets you automate exactly your own sales and customer service process, with no compromises and no monthly licence costs.

social.tech has developed several CRM systems for different industries — from B2B service companies to project management teams. Each system is built around specific business logic: capturing leads from forms and integrations, qualification, a deal pipeline, reminders, integration with email and WhatsApp, and reports for management.

AI-accelerated development makes it possible to build an MVP in 6–10 weeks and then develop the system iteratively, based on feedback from real users.

What is CRM development?

CRM development is building a custom customer relationship management system for a specific company: the system is built around your sales pipeline, statuses, fields and workflows, not around the structure of an off-the-shelf product. A custom CRM is needed when an off-the-shelf CRM (HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce) does not fit your process and you pay a subscription for features you do not use. social.tech builds an MVP of a CRM system in 6–10 weeks, and a full system with integrations in 3–5 months. An MVP CRM system starts from ~12,000 EUR. For the Valtera sports school, social.tech developed a management system for applications, attendance, training plans and communication with parents; a CRM for the CVN moving service, with 11 modules in its specification, is in development. A custom CRM usually includes these modules:

  • lead capture from forms and integrations, qualification and a deal pipeline;
  • reminders, automatic lead assignment and email sequences;
  • integration with email, phone and WhatsApp Business;
  • real-time reports and dashboards by role.
What you get

What does a company get from a custom CRM?

A custom CRM system gives a company a process without compromises: a pipeline, statuses and fields that follow the way you work. A custom CRM has no monthly licences — you pay a one-off development fee and hosting (from 30 EUR/month). All leads from email, phone, WhatsApp and forms end up in one place, and managers see real-time reports.

How we work

What are the 4 steps of CRM development?

CRM development takes four steps. Analysis: a free consultation, a review of your processes, a technical specification and a fixed budget. Development: AI-accelerated iterative sprints with visible progress. Rollout: data migration, integrations, team training and a gradual launch. Support: maintenance and development under an SLA with a response time of up to 4 hours on a working day.

Analysis

We start with a free consultation and study your business processes, goals and user needs. The result is a clear technical specification, a list of features and a fixed budget.

Development

Rollout

We migrate the data, integrate with your existing systems, train the team and run user testing. The launch is gradual, so day-to-day work is not disrupted.

Support and SLA

After the launch we provide maintenance, security updates and feature development under an SLA. Response time — up to 4 hours on a working day.
