IBM has bought Optevia, a SaaS systems integrator specialising in Microsoft Dynamics CRM solutions for housing and public sector organisations. Optevia will become part of IBM Global Business Services.
Unlike traditional housing management systems that are tied to the property record and proprietary to the suppliers, Optevia said that Microsoft Dynamics CRM offers housing providers independence and flexibility.
Steve Lyon, business director for housing and health, Optevia, said, “The investment provided by IBM has enabled Optevia’s Dynamics team to think beyond everyday activities and focus on more innovation with Microsoft Dynamics CRM.”
