Founder story
Koban CRM was established in 2012 by technology entrepreneur Guillaume Lecanu in Grandris, France, to eliminate the severe operational fragmentation draining small businesses. Frustrated by seeing scaling teams waste critical sales energy managing separate spreadsheet logs, disconnected email applications, and manual invoicing systems, Guillaume set out to construct a unified architecture. He engineered a complete cloud CRM layer engineered with local data storage compliance that removes software complexity for European mid-market enterprises.
