How are California's and Florida's oranges different?

Kenan is coming from comverse and Siebel is coming from Oracle. I just learned that Comverse has now made a new product called the Comverse One which includes both Billing and CRM systems together as a package.  Now I guess its pretty obvious that any company who needs a billing system would also need a crm system. Why? Well, Duh,,,...
