Since its founding in 2007, Sansan has been the leader of
cloud-based contact management in Japan. With its Singapore
office, it extends its reach to the rest of Asia and the world.
Sansan now has over 6,000 customers worldwide.
“Before using Sansan, we managed our contacts on an individual
basis, but with Sansan, we began managing them as a company.
This enabled us to make better use of the networking connections
within our company, and discover new sales opportunities.”
“We appreciate how quickly Sansan was able to take our
feedback and turn it into a new feature. We were looking for a
seamless Google-contact syncing option which wasn’t initially
available with Sansan. When we suggested an update on your
end, you came back with the update within a week.”
