CHARLOTTE, NC – Customer Connect Associates (www.customer-connect.com) is offering two opportunities for businesses to compare best selling customer relationship management (CRM) tools Salesforce.com and Microsoft CRM in the coming two months. Both venues will offer an exclusive side-by-side demonstration of the two tools targeted at businesses that are considering a customer relationship management project.

On Thursday, August 20, 2009, Customer Connect will host a live event in Charlotte, NC at the Duke Mansion called, “Your Business … Accelerated”. The event includes not only the side-by-side demo, but also separate breakout sessions on SharePoint, Web 2.0 strategies and keynote lunch presentations by two CEOs that use these solutions. This is a free half-day event that includes breakfast and lunch. Attendees can come for the entire event or just the sessions that they wish to attend.

On Thursday, September 24, 2009, Customer Connect will host a webinar focused solely on the CRM side-by-side comparison. The 90 minute webinar is free and includes the opportunity to ask questions throughout the presentation.
