Business Wire, Oct 24, 2007

MILWAUKEE -- Oncontact Software, a leading provider of .NET based customer relationship management (CRM) software systems for the mid-market, and Sales Progress, a leading provider of technology based sales and customer service learning systems, announced today a strategic long-term partnership for Oncontact's award-winning .NET CRM solutions with the on-demand SalesScoreboard.NET assessment system from Sales Progress.

Under the terms of the agreement between the companies, Oncontact Software will recommend Sales Progress's line of assessment systems called SalesScoreboard.net to its prospects, customers, and throughout its distribution channel.

SalesScoreboard.net is the CRM industry's first on-demand self-assessment system where corporate management can easily gauge the exact obstacles and objections a company's sales and service representatives are facing in real time. Users of the SalesScoreboard.net system can answer questions online from management about common objections or obstacles they are facing during their day from customers and prospects and the on-demand SalesScoarboard.net system will automatically collect and analyze this data immediately. This data is then automatically fed directly into the analytical tools included with the SalesScoreboard.net system to give management an immediate return on what is happening in the field in real time. Management can then adjust their messages and business processes in real time to react to their business needs.

"Sales Progress is excited to partner with Oncontact Software to show the value that the on-demand SalesScoreboard.net system brings as an integrated solution with the Oncontact .NET CRM software system," said Tim Hagen, president of Sales Progress.
