SoftwareReviews, a leading source for insights on the software provider landscape, has published its 2022 Customer Relationship Management Data Quadrant. Nine providers in the Enterprise and Midmarket spaces have been identified as Gold Medalists.
The Customer Relationship Management (CRM) market has undergone explosive growth over the past five years as organizations seek to grow their capabilities and deliver a united customer experience across marketing, sales, and customer service.
“Organizations are looking for CRM applications that integrate across the enterprise, are easy to use, provide automation, facilitate workflow management, allow for data-driven insights, and utilize artificial intelligence to capitalize on opportunities,” says Lisa Highfield, Research Director, Enterprise Applications, at SoftwareReviews. “CRM software is an increasingly essential tool for product, sales, and marketing leaders in 2022. These platforms are the workhorses that centralize customer data and manage the customer experience.”
SoftwareReviews has collected and verified survey data from 2,707 end-user reviews to identify the top Enterprise and Midmarket CRM software providers for 2022. These providers received high scores on SoftwareReviews’ Data Quadrant.
Providers are ranked by a composite satisfaction score, called a Composite Score (CS), that averages four different areas of evaluation: Net Emotional Footprint, Vendor Capabilities, Product Features, and Likeliness to Recommend.

- HubSpot CRM Platform, 8.3 CS, ranked high for activity and workflow management.

“Going forward, as organizations adopt and integrate with other sales tools and capabilities including AI, live chat, and omnichannel service delivery, it is important to choose not just the product, but the partner that can grow with your business needs” adds Highfield.
