This is a fairly broad question with a ton of possible answers. Here are a few of my points:
You have a comprehensive view of your customer base that is custom to your business processes.
You can automate lead capture/lead routing to the right people in a timely manner and ensure those leads are followed up with quickly.
You can segment your data based on what's important to your business at any given time. For example, you want to see all contacts in a specific region that were created in Q3 of 2024 that have never had a deal associated with them...you can do it!
When your CRM solution is customized to your business, your sales team can use a pipeline that supports your unique processes and if used properly, will give your team an accurate forecast of pipeline and a historic view of all past sales.
You can build the reports/KPIs/dashboards that are most relevant to your business which is beneficial in multiple ways:
You will understand what's working and what's not
You can use dashboards to help your sales team prioritize their activity and ensure nothing is falling through the cracks
You can give your executive stakeholders a view of all of the data they need at any given time
These are just a few of my points, but as I mentioned, there are a ton of insights this community should be able to offer!
