sales-i has upgraded its customers to a faster, richer, and smoother version of our sales enablement software. The new release is written in Adobe Flex™ and uses Rich Internet Application (RIA) technology.RIA’s are Web applications that have many of the characteristics of desktop applications. The sales-i Enquiries and Dashboards are now Flex-based and use full Rich Internet Application controls meaning customers get an enriched and more flexible tool to manage their sales and marketing intelligence.

 

Paul Black has been overseeing the strategy to deliver our sales performance software as an RIA and explains. “In today’s business environment, where customers are more demanding than ever, and brand loyalty is increasingly difficult to obtain, deeper customer engagement is integral to an organization’s success. RIAs can make customer interactions compelling, dynamic, and useful — in a word, engaging. RIAs not only enable better configurations, but they also allow firms to embed video and other contextual help content into applications. With this new release, we now open a future of great flexibility and an enriched sales-i experience for our clients and, in turn, their clients too.”

Customer reaction to the new release (sales-i 6.4.2) has been very positive, with many describing the new release as a “massive improvement.” Customers have added, “I love the new interactive dashboard” and “It is very user-friendly and very intuitive in its layout!”
