Dear Mahmoud,

 

Depends on your team and your sales & marketing process, When looking for a CRM, there are a couple key factors to consider.

 

1. Mobility - A CRM with strong mobile apps that sync all of your information to all of your devices is critical.

 

2. Ease of use - As you begin to grow your company, you'll want to move fast. You won't want to spend a week teaching new employees how to use complex sales software. It should be intuitive.

 

3. Price - Look for companies that offer a free version or trial so you have time to see if it's the right fit for you.

 

4. Growth - Look for an option that is easy to use, but at the same time offers advanced features that you can use as you grow.

 

This is a list of various CRM software and a comparison of features: https://docs.google.com/a/orkanza.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ahw066SJeeSadFFKQkY0cGY5dFFvVWpFWVhoSjRYWWc#gid=1

 

For me I highly recommend ZOHO CRM https://crm.zoho.com. for small startup & SugarCRM http://www.sugarcrm.com/ for Big one.

 

For WOW startup & fast operation cycle you have to go with Salesforce http://www.salesforce.com/

 

Good Luck Mahmoud.

that CRM comes with complex installation process is no longer valid.

The best cloud-based CRM software for startup according to me is Zoho CRM tools. It is having all the necessary features.
