Pharco Pharma NV/SA Leverages Advantages of Cloud Computing with the Implementation of Veeva CRM

veevaPharco Pharma NV/SA, a rapidly growing pharmaceutical company specialising in prescribed, OTC medications (OTX) and food supplements, has implemented Veeva CRM to support its salesforce in Belgium. Pharco required an affordable and intuitive Customer Relationship Management (CRM) application that was both pharma-specific and easily adaptable.  The company turned to Veeva CRM, the leading cloud-based solution for the global pharma and biotech industry.

Pharco selected Veeva CRM after years of frustration with less than ideal solutions. In fact, in 2007, dissatisfied with the high cost, rigidity, and poor adoption of its existing automated CRM solution, the company made the bold move to abandon it and revert to "pen and paper." Always regarded as a temporary solution, the manual system could not provide management with visibility into the effectiveness of the salesforce, nor was it practical given the company's rapid growth.

"Knowing the perils of selecting the wrong partner, we were especially diligent in our search," noted Karel Goderis, managing director for Pharco. "We were looking for a cloud-based CRM solution, designed for pharma, that would be simple to use, cost effective, and flexible enough to grow along with our organisation. Veeva was the only solution that met our criteria in full."  

"Veeva CRM has already proven that it can sustain our annual growth rate of 40 percent, it has been nimble and fast to implement, and has spared us the expense of installing and managing onsite IT infrastructure," continued Goderis.

Veeva Systems has rapidly become the leading provider of Pharma CRM solutions globally. Cloud-based, Veeva CRM requires no hardware or software to purchase, scale or maintain. In addition, all Veeva customers benefit from free, automatic upgrades so users are always on the most up-to-date version of the software and benefit from the very latest compliance changes and system enhancements. Changes can be made to the system instantly without user retraining or additional third-party costs.

Goderis concluded, "Since our implementation of Veeva CRM, we've seen significant improvements including: increased field force efficiency, easier tracking of rep activity, and improved customer targeting."
