Why Murex needs Services Presales 

Murex’s Presales team plays a transversal role in the organization and acts as a central enabler of the sales process. The EMEA Presales team currently contains functional, technical and services experts. Murex has an ambitious sales roadmap and there is a continuous flow of new opportunities for both our market-proven and new business solutions. Regardless of the solutions we sell, there is always a strong requirement to convince the prospect of our ability to implement, support, run and evolve their MX.3 instance. Further, we need to provide each prospect with compelling arguments for them to use our managed services including SaaS and MXevolve offerings.
