In this episode of the Transform Sales Podcast: Sales Software Review Series, Amir Reiter and Franck Perez talked about how small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) without a CRM or VoIP solution can use Kavkom to solve CRM inefficiency. Designed specifically for companies starting from zero, Kavkom delivers a full-featured, low-cost CRM and VoIP platform that can be activated in minutes, without commitments or complexity.

When it comes to CRM Setup, what alternatives were small and mid-sized businesses most often using before buying Kavkom?

SMBs without a tech stack typically relied on the following:

1. Spreadsheets and Email: Many businesses managed customer relationships via Google Sheets or Excel, paired with basic email systems.

2. Basic Landline or Mobile Phones: Without VoIP, teams lacked call routing, tracking, or any kind of analytics.

3. Expensive CRM Systems: Tools like Salesforce or HubSpot, while powerful, often require large upfront investments, custom implementations, and dedicated staff to manage.

These alternatives left SMBs with siloed data, inefficient processes, and poor visibility into customer interactions.

What challenges were SMBs running into with those alternatives that Kavkom helped them overcome?

High Cost and Complexity

SMBs need affordable, easy-to-use tools. Legacy CRM and VoIP providers offer features behind premium plans and require complex onboarding. Kavkom eliminates those barriers with a unified system that requires no technical expertise and offers all features in a single, low-cost plan.

Manual Data Entry and Disconnected Workflows

Without integration between their communication tools and customer records, SMBs had to enter data manually—leading to inefficiencies and errors. Kavkom syncs all customer activity automatically and eliminates manual tracking.

Inability to Scale or Automate

Using separate tools meant that growing SMBs couldn’t automate outreach or scale operations. Kavkom includes features like predictive dialers, smart routing, and call whispering—automating core sales and support processes.
