11 October 2010 – Reading UK – Workbooks.com, a leading UK provider of web-based CRM and Business Applications today announced a series of new client wins, further enhancing their presence in the UK market.
Metadigm, Pentura and Northdoor, all IT integrators, are amongst a series of new client wins for Workbooks.com. These projects are typical of many with resellers, integrators and service providers which continue to fuel Workbooks’ growth whilst further strengthening Workbooks’ expertise and experience within the IT Channel.
Metadigm, a specialist provider of network and security solutions, uses Workbooks Business Edition to increase the productivity and performance of their sales team. “We bought Workbooks because it offered broader support for our business than the CRM alternatives we considered.” Commented Nick Scott, Director at Metadigm. “We have benefited from Workbooks across our customer facing teams and recover the cost of our subscription through improvements in our order management alone”.
Pentura, an IT Security Consultancy, Integrator and Service Provider, uses Workbooks Business Edition to help streamline their business processes across the Sales, Marketing and Customer Support functions. Pentura will additionally be one of Workbooks’ first customers to make use of the new Contract Management module, which is to be launched later this year.
And finally, Northdoor, a London based IT consultancy and managed services provider uses Workbooks Business Edition to manage customer engagements and to streamline their sales order processing. “Since we moved from Salesforce.com to Workbooks.com we now have a single unified system for sales, marketing and sales order processing and can now process orders in half the time.” explains Lorraine Blackwell, Customer Services Manager at Northdoor. She added “Because the Workbooks team really understands the needs of the channel, we can process customer quotes, turn these into orders, raise supplier orders, invoice our customers and track the profitability of our deals through the process.”
Edward Berks, Sales Director at Workbooks.com comments “The acquisition of new IT integrators, resellers and service providers to our client base is really great news for us. Whilst Workbooks can improve operations for almost any client-facing organisation, the IT Channel benefits particularly from Workbooks’ breadth of functionality all the way from ‘prospect to cash’. Workbooks customers can manage orders, contracts and renewals in addition to addressing their core sales, marketing and customer support needs; as such we’re seen increasingly as a logical alternative to Salesforce.com and Microsoft Dynamics”.
