FAQ

Frequently asked.

Is Sphere a direct replacement for Salesforce?
Sphere addresses the same operational need but takes a different product shape — operating on the same record as the surrounding hiring, identity, and customer-relationship workflow rather than as a standalone tool. Whether it is the right replacement depends on whether the integrated record matters to your business as much as the point capability does.
When should an organization pick Sphere?
For organizations evaluating general-purpose CRMs, this page positions Sphere against the established options. Sphere is differentiated by treating customer, supplier, and candidate records as connected entities on a single workspace, rather than separate systems linked by integrations.
Does VUMY Technologies claim parity with every incumbent on every feature?
No. These pages call out what established platforms do well in their core domain and where the platform takes a deliberately different shape. The right choice depends on the surrounding workflow as much as the point capability.
