Avonet Technologies (Pvt) Ltd recently announced a partnership with Commercial Credit & Finance PLC. 
The alliance comes following Commercial Credit’s move to strengthen its call centre and sales division with state-of-the-art customer relationship management (CRM) capabilities. 
 Avonet’s cutting-edge CRM solution, AFFINITI, is a fully fledged industry-specific solution that encapsulates the latest technology, industry best practices, powerful platform and user-friendly interface. AFFINITI comprises five highly cohesive modules that are tailored and matched to suit specific organisational requirements. They are Affiniti 360, Affiniti Sales Canvas, Affiniti Marketing Campaign, Club Affiniti and Affiniti Mobile. 
 AFFINITI was deployed at two major operations at Commercial Credit – call centre and sales management system. The former utilises AFFINITI 360, which empowers call centre agents to access complete, up-to-date information about Commercial Credit’s customers, at the click of a button, while enabling them to initiate tickets for subsequent service offering. 
 AFFINITI Sales Canvas was deployed for the sales team with advanced functionalities such as user defined contact-to-lead and lead-to-account transition processes. The platform also showcases sales targets, forecasts and actual sales, allowing management to track individual and group performances. The Activity Tracker provides complete history of time and effort utilised on each account. In addition, Sales Canvas’ user-friendly interface offers a barrage of other solutions to sales agents enabling them to be at the top of their game at all times. 
 “The initial decision to partner with Avonet Technologies has put us in a win-win situation right from the beginning. Not only have our call centre and sales staff been greatly empowered by AFFINITI’s powerful capabilities, but we’ve also managed to reduce costs by rationalizing our process. This has been a great experience for our staff as they continue in their drive to excellence,” said Shammi Jayathilka, DGM – Marketing at Commercial Credit PLC. 
 “Our CRM engine is possibly the best of its kind in the market for the level of sophistication it delivers while remaining easy to understand and use,” said Sachith Fernandopulle, Chief Technology Officer at Avonet Technologies (Pvt) Ltd. “While being excited about our success with a trailblazer such as Commercial Credit, we will continue to bring more advanced software capabilities to our clients,” 
he added.
