“Sugar Hint reinvents business applications by allowing sales reps to provide just a few pieces of contact information (e.g., email, name, company) for a person during lead qualification, and then automatically searches and applies the rest of the personal and business profile details for that contact.

Sugar Hint pulls this customer information from a wide range of social data sources (e.g.: LinkedIn, Twitter, website), collects and analyzes it so that sales reps quickly and efficiently learn more about the contact in order to build a lasting relationship.” See SugarCRM press release on launch of Sugar Hint.
