(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, October 23 / MARKET WIRE/ --
Stefanini IT Solutions
(http://www.stefanini-usa.com/), one of the main service consulting
companies in the information technology area in Latin America, and
Salesforce.com (http://www.salesforce.com/), market and technology leader
in the Software as a Service (SaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS)
segments, have announced an alliance to offer Salesforce.com's Salesforce
CRM applications and Force.com Platform to the Latin American market.
Stefanini, in response to the global growth of SaaS, has expanded its
products and services to provide customers with the highest quality,
high-performance information technology solutions and customer service.
Through this alliance Salesforce.com, the global leader in CRM, will expand
its participation in Latin America. The partnership, which will be managed
globally by Salesforce.com in the United States, begins by servicing the
Brazilian market, but there are already plans to expand the operations to
Mexico and other Latin American countries.
"With this partnership, Stefanini's customers will gain access to
Salesforce CRM and the Force.com platform to improve their customer service
and relationship management processes, just like more than 47,000 companies
in the world already do," said Enrique Perezyera, president of
Salesforce.com for Latin America.
The sales, deployment and support in pre- and post-sales processes will be
under the responsibility of the Stefanini account teams in these countries.
"In addition to counting on the full support of Stefanini's trained
technicians, Salesforce.com will also be able to benefit from the company's
customer base," said Silvio Passos, vice-president of services at Stefanini
IT Solutions. "Stefanini has already started training its consultant
network in order to become certified on the company's products. The goal is
to have a trained and certified team ready as soon as possible."
