SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- November 12, 2002 -- Ihance, the leader in individual Sales Productivity software, today announced the availability of the Outlook-Salesforce.com Connector, allowing users of Outlook to have their Salesforce.com contact records automatically updated with a record of each email sent.
Salesforce.com customers are always looking for ways to be more productive in their daily activities", said Roger Goulart, Salesforce.com's Vice President of Business Development and Alliances. With the introduction of the Outlook-Salesforce.com Connector, Ihance has created a solution that gives our clients the ability to track emails sent from desktop clients as well as all other customer-focused marketing, sales, and service activities in a single integrated customer database."
The Ihance solution is engineered to work seamlessly with Salesforce.com. Users of Ihance are accustomed to reaping the benefit of the Ihance system without having to alter their workflow in any way. Now this ability is available to Salesforce.com users as well.
First and foremost, we focus on improving the productivity of the individual salesperson, and a large percentage of our customers use Salesforce.com as their primary CRM tool," said Ihance Co-Founder and President Anders Knox. When chronicling interactions with contacts and prospects, sales reps are spending a lot of time manually updating their CRM systems with details of their email correspondence. We free up valuable selling time for salespeople, encouraging the adoption rate of Salesforce.com usage internally and strengthening our joint customers' investments."
The server-side implementation eliminates the need for lengthy per-seat installations, works with multiple email clients including Outlook and others, and requires only minimal IT resources. The ability to connect your desktop email client with Salesforce.com is available as a standalone product, the Outlook-Salesforce.com Connector, or as part of the larger Ihance product suite.
