Callidus Makes On-Demand Solution Available in EMEA
SAN JOSE, Calif., May 2 -- Callidus Software Inc., the leader in Sales Performance Management (SPM), today announced it
has expanded the offering of its industry leading on-demand solutions
to the EMEA region. To meet growing demand, Callidus Software also
ramped up its sales and consulting team for Europe, Middle East and
Africa (EMEA) by adding industry experts who will focus on the finance,
retail and telecommunications sectors, selling the company's SPM and
EIM products.
Jeffrey Saling, vice president of Callidus On-Demand, announced the
expansion into EMEA together with full internationalization support of
the offering as of May 1. "We see increased awareness and
adoption of on-demand solutions and we are ready to serve the
international community with our well tried and tested on-demand
solutions," states Saling. "In the first year of operations the
bookings for Callidus On-Demand have exceeded over $10 million. In this
short time span, Callidus signed up over 8,500 subscribers in global
organizations across multiple industries. Our prospective clients in
EMEA can now benefit from the low-cost rapid deployment model that is
proving so successful for us in the United States and that has been
adopted by leading companies worldwide."
Andrew Armstrong, vice president and international general manager,
added: "With the European division of Callidus generating significant
year on year growth, we are well placed to take the company forward and
grow the market further in this key region. We lead the SPM market in
Europe and the expansion of on-demand offering, together with our
expanded team in EMEA will help us further strengthen our position in
this market. We have experienced strong, growing demand for our sales
performance management solutions in Europe, as companies recognize they
need to align their strategic business goals with their sales strategy.
Independent research shows the global EIM market is forecast to reach
$1,120 billion by 2010 and a significant portion of that growth will
take place in Europe. Gartner states that 'Sales performance management
represents the next generation of best practices for sales. It
establishes a strong foundation for improving sales execution'."
Callidus Software's SPM solutions are proven to deliver a high ROI
in a very short period of time. They allow sales executives to make
better incentive decisions, provide timely visibility into channel
operations, and give them the flexibility to rapidly deploy new sales
and distribution strategies and tactics. Callidus' solutions are
available on-premise and on-demand and enable companies to improve
sales performance, align sales strategy with corporate business
objectives, drive revenue and profitability.
