amoCRM History

📖 It all begins with a story.

Every business has a story behind its creation, and here is ours.

In the early 00s, sales automation software wasn't as popular as it is now. (Their loss👎)

Back then, sales were made the old-school way, by using Excel Spreadsheets to store customer data.🥱 The data about the number of sales and client objections hadn't been stored anywhere, so managers couldn't really track the process or the progress.

That was before the concept of automation came in.

In 2015, we introduced the Digital Pipeline - a new tool for task management. There was nothing close to this tool back in the day, and to be honest, it was the best thing we could imagine.

Digital Pipeline is a tool that automates the sales process by triggering follow-ups and actions according to your specific conditions.🧑‍💻

In the mid 2010s, messaging became the fastest growing channel of communication. The rise of messenger apps has also changed not only how people communicate with friends and families, but also how they communicate with businesses.

In 2018, amoCRM released the Messenger-based sales concept and presented it at amoCONF in San Francisco.

Since then, messenger-based sales has become our main focus in product development.🚀

MBS attempts to create a presence in communication channels that customers use most. It offers real-time and personalized experiences. Most importantly, it recognizes the power ⚡ of automation and gives consumers control over when and how they prefer to contact your business.

Today, we already serve over 25,000 small and mid-sized businesses around the world, providing them with tools for intelligent sales management. We've also received awards and recognitions from Gartner, Finances Online, Software Advice, and many others.

amoCRM rebranding in 2022

For the past 15 years, over 250k amoCRM users from almost 70 countries around the globe 🌎 have benefited tremendously from the automation and management tools provided by our CRM solution.

Throughout these years, our business has experienced various changes driven by internal and external environments. We drastically improved our functionality, created new features, and added more integrations with some of the most popular platforms (over 100 of them 😱).

With our company expanding, we've realized that we are becoming more than a CRM solution. Hence our brand no longer represents the full essence of what we stand for. After giving it some thought 🤔, we've decided that from now on, amoCRM will become Kommo.🥁 But love ('amo') will always stay at the core of everything we do.
