Microsoft Dynamics CRM, Salesforce, and Oracle CX.
All the renowned solutions mentioned above have one in common. They offer a standard CRM functionality and have started to focus on mobility & its enhancements a short time ago, by introducing their own mobile CRM apps to the market.

Let’s introduce Resco – the ‘go-to’ tool, to the CRM crowd

Mobile CRM has been the focal point of Resco from the very beginning. All the company’s efforts, resources & focus have always been invested into a mobile-only CRM. By ordinary, a sales rep or a field technician who works with Resco, doesn’t need a standard desktop CRM interface, at all. Set side by side, Resco (as to the CRM solutions mentioned above) works for everyone who needs mobile access to CRM on a daily basis.

The focus on mobility is what distinguishes Resco from MS Dynamics CRM, Salesforce, and Oracle CX

Resco Mobile CRM was initially created as a mobile client for Microsoft Dynamics CRM.  Nothing changes about that. Remaining as the number one mobile client for Dynamics CRM — the solution has now become a mobility platform for various CRM technologies, such as Oracle CX and Salesforce. Over and above, Resco comes with a whole package, including our very own, CRM server.
