L'émergence de portails verticaux ou vortails a été particulièrement fertile autour du thème du Customer Relationship Management. Sa portée, à la fois stratégique, méthodologique et technologique, en constitue une bonne explication. Nous avons divisé les portails entre l'Amérique et ailleurs dans le monde, principalement l'Europe mais aussi l'Australie et l'Inde. Cette distinction se justifie-t-elle à l'heure de la mondialisation des marchés ? Certes oui, puisque des nuances culturelles sont perceptibles dans les propos. Or, dans la mesure où le CRM met l'accent sur les relations humaines, les différences en terme de sensibilité revêtent toute leur importance. La langue dans laquelle est décrit un portail est celle de son site sur Internet. Certains portails couvrent l'ensemble de la problématique du CRM alors que d'autres sont plus pointus et traitent principalement des centres d'appels, des entrepôts de données ou mettent l'accent sur les ventes ou le service. crmodyssey.com aborde quant à lui tous les aspects du CRM à partir d'un point de vue québécois.
