Social CRM. Does adding Twitter to your CRM process make it more social? SalesForce has really gone eyeballs-deep into the Social CRM space by recently purchasing Radian6 , the leading social monitoring tool on the market. ALL CRM IS SOCIAL. Let me repeat that. Intriguing!

Every few seconds this morning, TweetDeck brings another comment on today's announcement that Salesforce.com is buying Radian6. The announcement's not exactly a surprise—Radian6 was the obvious acquisition target in social media analysis (SMA), and their platform had supported Salesforce integration since mid-2009.

All the technology, collaboration software and community applications deployed behind the firewall will not be effective unless there is a fundamental shift in the way employees think, interact with one another and communicate. Or, are they planning to use social CRM and weave it into their sales and marketing initiatives?

As marketers try to determine appropriate resourcing, one of the big measurement and accountability challenges faced by social media is the anonymity inherent in most social data. But in almost every case, the evidence that social media “works” is based on aggregate, anonymous data.

To be fair, I’ve only included those I’ve actually used (Radian6, Sysomos, Spiral 16) or tested (Meltwater, SM2). I’ve started a comparison chart, based only on my own experience and opinion, for you to use and update as you see fit. The main pitfall to avoid is flashy graphics for the sake of flashy graphics.

I don’t feel the need to experiment with every new piece of software that emerges from its chrysalis, but I do feel a responsibility to you and my clients to have some idea of what’s out there and what’s worthwhile. Also, at my social media speaking engagements hither and yon I’m often asked what tools I use.
