Siebel must be making sense for local large corporation (I dont know how). While most of the world turns to salesforce.com and away from Siebel, we seem to be installing more and more of the application. Which may not be such a bad thing. Given our connectivity issues and the fact that there are certain laws that encourage corporation to keep their data in house, large hunky CRMs might be the only way to go for now.

After NIB, Emirates Global has also signed on for  Siebel CRM deployment. So on my list I now have Mobilink, NIB and EIBL as companies where Siebel is being implemented.

I like Siebel though its old as a technology, but then that might be what we need, the Cultus after all is 20 years old and we still manufacture and use that thing here.

When I visited the Siebel campus a few years ago it really seemed like an innovative driven company, and yet I was never able to understand how and why they let salesforce.com take the lead from them.  Anyhow, the bottom line is, that in Pakistan right now, CRMs like Siebel seem to be gaining traction. Avanza’s CRM solution also has alot of momentum and holds its own against the foreign vendors.
