[May 25, 2004] InfoManager Corporation Integrates Disparate Teams With GoldMine Corporate Edition; Software Company's Worldwide Teams Stay In Sync with FrontRange's CRM Solution COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. --(Business Wire)-- May 25, 2004 -- FrontRange Solutions USA Inc., a global leader in the Small-to-Mid-Enterprise (SME) and distributed enterprise markets, today announced that InfoManager Corporation (www.infomanagerinc.com) has deployed GoldMine(R) Corporate Edition. InfoManager develops and provides a full range of business intelligence and data mining software and services that enable businesses to more effectively extract, analyze, manage and report on all types of mission-critical data. Opting for ease of use and a low cost of ownership, InfoManager CEO Petri Salonen said he chose GoldMine Corporate Edition over the competition for its exceptional combination of functionality and affordability. "GoldMine offers an unbelievable amount of functions and features. I couldn't believe that, for the price, it does all these things," said Petri Salonen, CEO of InfoManager Corporation. "You don't have to pay an arm and a leg to build a worldwide CRM solution." A highly distributed software company based in Helsinki, Finland, with sales offices in Sweden and Dallas, Texas, InfoManager uses GoldMine to synchronize the activities of its internal and external sales reps located around the world serving customers on several continents. Previously, InfoManager used a Lotus Notes-based CRM solution and users maintained their own individually created contact records with no way of integrating their worldwide efforts. With help from Dallas-based FrontRange Solutions Partner Professional EDGE, InfoManager initially implemented a dBase version of GoldMine, eventually transitioning to a client/server application. Today, Salonen calls GoldMine "the single most important application running in the organization." The software keeps the company's worldwide team in sync, supporting everything from sales to marketing campaigns to managing existing customers. "We're pleased to provide InfoManager with a world class solution that helps them seize every revenue opportunity and manage customer relationships in the most professional manner possible, with a complete picture of all activities," said Kevin J. Smith, vice president of products for FrontRange Solutions.
