Oz Benamram, director of knowledge management at Morrison & Foerster, an international law firm with more than 3,000 employees and 17 offices worldwide, describes the latest iteration of the CRM applications it's using as "CRM on steroids." The company had struggled to make sense of the data that it had collected, such as which areas of expertise its lawyers had, which companies they had worked with, and which employees knew individuals working for potential clients.
