WESTPORT, Conn., June 25, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Westport Software Group, Inc. has maintained its position since 1994 as 'value leader' in the competitive Enterprise Incentive Management (EIM) marketplace with its EIM platform Compensation Activity Tracking System (CATS(r)). The company has retained the 'Best Total Cost of Ownership' position among competitive EIM platforms by keeping prices flat for 5 straight years since the introduction of its 4th release, CATS(r) 2002 EIM.
Pricing of CATS(r) 2007, the 7th major release and leader in maintaining 'EIM Best Practices' that ships in June 2007, will remain flat. In addition, licensing for the installed version of CATS(r) 2007 EIM will continue the industry-unique perpetual 'unlimited' administrator and plan participant feature. This feature contributes significant financial leverage to a decision to deploy the software.
In 2006 the company began offering CATS(r) EIM On-Demand(tm), which significantly extended the power of the CATS(r) 2005 EIM platform. This hosted offering enables mid-to-large size organizations and enterprise business units to benefit from a world-class EIM solution on a subscription basis. CATS(r) EIM On-Demand is available anywhere in the world to serve clients with low-cost, rapidly deployable EIM solutions.
In both its on-premise and on-demand versions, CATS(r) EIM solutions enable companies to improve sales performance, align sales strategy with corporate business objectives, and drive revenue and profitability to improve overall business performance.
"CATS(r) continues to be the 'Value Leader' across all delivery platforms, including those SaaS-only multi-tenanted solutions that promise huge scale efficiencies," said Westport Software Group CEO John A. Laurino. "Not only will CATS(r) outperform any other EIM solution from a total cost of ownership basis, but it is also the only EIM solution that can also produce ROI's competitive with internally developed applications."
