The difficulties of implementing these systems into pre-existing business systems.
Time and Cost associated with implementing CRM.

Why do CRM projects fail? Simply investing in CRM technology would not address
ineffective business process, dirty data, misaligned key performance indicators or missing strategic plans.
Common reason - they do not deliver the functionality they should. The project starts out without any clear milestones along the way. By doing this a customer, have no chance in controlling the delivery as the project goes along. The risk of failure will increase.
Partial Deliveries - This will reduce the complexity and risk of failure.

What is CX?
Customer experience (CX) is the sum of all experiences a customer has with a supplier of goods and/or services.
What is CXM?
Customer experience management involves strategy that focuses the operations and processes of a business around the needs of individual customers.
The customer experience has emerged as the single most important aspect in achieving success for companies across all industries
For example: Starbucks spent less than $10MM on advertising from 1987 to 1998 yet added over 2,000 new stores to accommodate growing sales.
