Insys Business Solutions, one of the leading VARs for SalesLogix in South Africa, today announced that SalesLogix Corporation, a leading provider of customer relationship management (CRM) software, have once again been named among the Top 15 CRM software packages for 2000 as selected by ISM, Inc., a leading CRM consulting firm. This is the second consecutive year that the SalesLogix suite of products has been included in ISM`s Top 15 list. The Top 15 selections are featured in ISM`s eighth edition of The Guide to CRM Automation (formerly The Guide to Sales Customer Service and Marketing Automation).
"Being chosen again for inclusion in the Top 15 reinforces what more and more businesses decide every day by confirming that SalesLogix2000 is the best CRM solution for many midsize and large companies," said Brian Packham, Managing Director of Insys. "SalesLogix`s continued success in the marketplace is the greatest honour of all, but receiving the recognition of an organisation that has so much expertise and is held in such respect as ISM, confirms its place as one of the leaders of our industry."
Barton Goldenberg, president of ISM and co-founder and co-chairman of DCI`s CRM Conference and Expo, said, "To be selected for the Top 15 once is an honour. But to win the award in consecutive years is an outstanding achievement. Competition in the burgeoning CRM industry is fierce and to stay on top - as SalesLogix has - demonstrates its products` value." Goldenberg announced the Top 15 during a special keynote session at DCI`s Chicago CRM conference at the McCormick Lakeside Center.
In addition to its advanced CRM capabilities, SalesLogix2000 includes sales, marketing, support, and e-business features that enable mid-market companies to quickly turn their e-business visions into revenue-generating reality. Powerful new capabilities include integration with ERP applications; wireless connectivity for mobile salespeople, partners, and customers; easy-to-use tools for out-of-the-box e-business set-up; and the ability to leverage products and services delivered by Interact, the new interactive application service from SalesLogix.
Products named in the ISM Top 15 undergo intensive testing and review in 95 specific areas, including 51 business functions, such as account and sales force management, customer service, and executive information; 32 technical features, including software architecture, scalability, and integration with other systems; and 12 user friendliness/support features, such as help functions, training, and support.
