Vlocity Wins 2017 CRM Watchlist for Third Year in a Row
According to Paul Greenberg, the CRM Watchlist “is designed to find companies who have not only had a significant impact in the market the year before but also are built to continue having that impact in the following approximately three years.” To win the exclusive CRM Watchlist Award, a “company has to be well rounded – it has financial stability, solid management, excellent products and services, superb culture and a strong partner ecosystem to help sustain its efforts.”
“We are honored that Vlocity has been named a winner in the 2017 CRM Watchlist,” said David Schmaier, CEO & Founder, Vlocity. “We view this award as another validation of Vlocity’s strategy to deliver modern, omni-channel, industry-specific applications in the cloud, and the incredible success and business results that our customers are realizing with Vlocity. Our back-to-back wins over the last three years are testimony to the historic IT transformation underway as companies move away from costly, obsolete on-premise CRM systems to agile and digital industry cloud applications built on the world’s #1 CRM platform, Salesforce.”
“It is exciting to see one of our important partners, Vlocity, win the coveted CRM Watchlist award,” said Peter Doolan, EVP of Digital Transformation and Innovation, Salesforce. “This is a testament to the power of the Salesforce platform and how it has enabled companies of all sizes to transform their businesses.”
“This marks the third year in a row in which Vlocity has won this prestigious CRM Watchlist award, with the company performing well across all metrics,” added Rip Gerber, Chief Marketing and Alliances Officer, Vlocity. “Paul Greenberg’s extensive analysis of CRM providers is the deepest review in our industry, a competition among 136 of some of the largest companies in enterprise computing. We accept this award on behalf of all our customers across the industries that we serve. We also congratulate our strategic partner Salesforce for topping the list with the highest aggregate score of any company in the industry.”
