v4, with implementation and support provided by ST Consulting,

The CRM system will support 250,000 users and will significantly improve
both internal and external communication.

The Learning Possibilities Group provides online learning environments to
Internet-based global communities spanning Central and Eastern Europe, India,
China, the Middle East and Africa. Its LP+ system is a centrally hosted and
managed learning platform built on industry-leading software. LP+ is designed
to address e-learning, communication and information management needs and the
CRM system is then used to manage all customer interaction and log product
sales and support.

Bindiya Raichura, Product Manager, Learning Possibilities Group comments,
"When we first implemented CRM it was just for the support desks but as we
have started to grow as a company we needed to extend usage of the system to
include our sales team, training team and consultants. With CRM v4 we now
have a system that can help us manage all of our support cases and training
schedules with greater efficiency and we have had tremendous feedback from
our customers with the support satisfaction rate now at over 95%."

The Learning Possibilities Group primarily uses the CRM system from
Microsoft Dynamics training specialist, ST Consulting, to manage customer
interaction and identify which products are being sold to which customers, so
that after-sales service and ongoing customer engagement can be improved. As
a subscription-based business, the Learning Possibilities Group needs to
closely monitor its annual renewal rates in order to minimise the risk of
losing customers. Using Microsoft Dynamics CRM v4, the Group is now able to
run a more proactive customer communications programme and this will help the
business to maintain a better dialogue with customers and increase renewal
rates.

ST Consulting has also been providing Microsoft Dynamics training
services to Microsoft for the UK Dynamics GP Partner network since 2002.

Raichura continues, "We hold records for 500 to 600 schools on our system
and the CRM system is supporting 250,000 users so it was essential we
installed a solution that was very scalable and could also be tailored to our
bespoke requirements. ST Consulting has enabled us to meet these objectives
by implementing version 4 of the CRM software. Before this, when cases were
created we were struggling to manage them adequately. However, this has
improved dramatically due to automated emails and reporting as we can now see
which products are causing the most queries and calls from customers and we
can then quickly address any problems. Our inter-departmental communication
has also improved as a result of moving to Microsoft Dynamics CRM v4 - now
each area of the business is kept fully informed of other departments'
customer communications and sales activities and this is helping us to
operate more efficiently as an organisation."

Commenting on London Microsoft Dynamics specialist, ST Consulting's
support and account management, Raichura says, "The flexible approach of ST
Consulting, coupled with their knowledge of our business and of the Microsoft
Dynamics CRM product suite, means they are the ideal choice of IT partner for
us. We needed a partner that was prepared to undertake a lot of bespoke CRM
development as the functionality we needed was not available 'out of the
box', and ST Consulting have proven to be able to provide exactly the sort of
skills, knowledge and support we need. Their consultants are always really
helpful and they have been able to provide us with an extremely robust,
reliable and cost-effective CRM system that can now support our 250,000 users
and help us to improve our communication and business processes across the
organisation."
