Short answer
Prospecting software should work alongside the CRM by helping reps execute the daily motion while the CRM remains the system of record. The workflow should make account work easier, capture useful outcomes, and keep CRM data cleaner instead of asking reps to update the same information twice.
The CRM should stay the system of record
Most teams do not need another CRM. They need a better way to turn CRM data, target accounts, contact context, and open tasks into a daily prospecting motion reps can actually follow.
Workflow and recordkeeping should reinforce each other
When outreach, notes, follow-up, and outcomes are captured close to the work, CRM data becomes more useful. Leaders get better visibility and reps spend less time reconstructing what happened after the fact.
