Abstract
In today’s dynamic business scenario, customers have the power to rule the market on their terms and conditions. Customer Relationship Management (CRM) plays an imperative role by covering all methods and measures to have a better customer understanding, and to make the most of this knowledge in applications like production and marketing. With the emergence of big data, it brings a whole new inclusion of CRM strategies which can support customization of sales, personalization of services, and customer interactions. The paper aims to study the extant state of big data analytics for customer relationship management through the method of systematic literature review. Thematic analysis from the relevant studies is done and a framework is proposed as an outcome of the study. This framework can be used to analyze the present state of research in area of big data analytics and CRM and also future directions for the further research are provided in the paper.
