The CRM Built from Experience, Not Theory
After 10+ years in the CRM industry and completing over 200 CRM implementations, we learned what businesses really need - and what they don't. Rapitek CRM is the result of this extensive field experience, designed specifically for Turkish enterprises who want enterprise-grade capabilities without enterprise-grade complexity or cost.

Why We Built Rapitek CRM
The CRM industry is broken. After implementing Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, and other major CRM platforms for over 200 companies, we consistently saw the same problems plaguing businesses:
The Hidden Cost Crisis
What starts as a $50/user/month quickly balloons into hundreds of dollars per user when you factor in:
- Essential features locked behind expensive editions - Need workflow automation? That's Enterprise edition. Want API access? Premium tier only.
- Storage limitations - 10GB for your entire company, then $125/month per additional 10GB
- Integration costs - Each integration requires separate licensing, often $20-50/user/month
- Support packages - Basic support is useless, Premier support costs $15,000/year minimum
- Customization fees - Simple field additions require consultants at $200-300/hour
- Training costs - Complex systems require extensive training, typically $5,000-10,000
We've seen companies with 50 users paying over $150,000 annually for their CRM - not including implementation and customization costs. This pricing model is designed to extract maximum revenue, not deliver maximum value.
The Complexity Trap
Major CRM platforms have become victims of feature bloat. In trying to serve everyone from 5-person startups to 50,000-person enterprises, they've created systems so complex that:
- Average implementation time is 6-12 months
- User adoption rates hover around 40-60%
- Most companies use less than 30% of available features
- Simple tasks require multiple steps across different modules
- Customization requires specialized developers
The Support Nightmare
Traditional CRM support is fundamentally broken:
- Ticket systems that dehumanize problems - Your business-critical issue becomes ticket #4829574
- Offshore support that doesn't understand your business - Generic responses from people who've never used the system
- Response times measured in days - 24-72 hour SLA for initial response, resolution can take weeks
- Escalation hell - Bouncing between Level 1, Level 2, specialists, none of whom have context
- No accountability - Tickets closed without resolution, no one takes ownership
The Localization Gap
Global CRM platforms treat local requirements as expensive customizations:
- Turkish e-invoice integration? That'll be $15,000 in custom development
- Local tax calculations? Another $5,000 customization
- Turkish business processes? Not supported, work around it
- Local payment methods? Third-party integration needed
- Turkish language? Machine-translated interfaces that make no sense
What Makes Rapitek CRM Different
1. Built by Implementers, for Businesses
We're not Silicon Valley theorists or MBA consultants. We're the people who've been in the trenches, implementing CRM systems for 10+ years. Every feature in Rapitek CRM exists because real businesses needed it, not because it looked good on a feature comparison chart.
Our team has personally experienced:
- The frustration of explaining why a simple change costs $5,000
- The embarrassment of 8-month implementations that still aren't right
- The anger of support tickets ignored for weeks
- The disappointment of promised features that never materialize
- The shock of surprise costs appearing months after signing
We built Rapitek CRM to be the solution we wished existed during those 200+ implementations.
2. 2-4 Week Implementation, Guaranteed
While others take months or even years, we get you operational in 2-4 weeks. This isn't a marketing promise - it's a guarantee backed by our systematic approach:

3. Direct Founder Access via WhatsApp
Forget support tickets and call centers. When you need help, you message our founding team directly on WhatsApp. Average response time: 7 minutes during business hours, under 30 minutes any time.
This isn't a premium add-on or temporary promotion. Direct access is standard for every Rapitek CRM customer because we believe support should be:
- Immediate - Problems cost money every minute they persist
- Personal - You deserve to talk to someone who knows your business
- Accountable - Founders can't hide behind ticket systems
- Effective - The people who built it can fix it fastest
