Enterprise marketing software provider Neolane, Inc. today announced it has been
positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Niche Players quadrant of the "Magic Quadrant
for CRM Multichannel Campaign Management" report.1 According to
Gartner, "the multichannel campaign management (MCCM) market continues to show
overall positive growth as marketers continue to shift investments from
mass-marketed, one-channel, one-way, company-driven campaigns to multichannel,
measurable, interaction-driven campaigns."
Neolane's Cross-Channel Marketing and Lead Management Optimization solutions are based on a single, web-services based platform that centrally manages direct marketing campaigns, leads, resources, customer data and analytics. The Neolane platform was engineered to handle the entire range of traditional and emerging channels, including mobile (SMS and MMS). The flexibility and scalability of the Neolane platform make it an excellent choice to address the advanced cross-channel marketing automation needs of organizations with annual revenues greater than $100 million and departments within the largest enterprise organizations.
"We believe this Gartner report demonstrates a maturing approach to cross-channel marketing, where all in-bound and out-bound communications must be unified and tightly coordinated across channels to ensure messages are consistent, relevant and support positive interactions with the brand," said Stephan Dietrich, president, Neolane, Inc. "Marketers around the world continue to turn to Neolane to drive relevant, personalized cross-channel conversations with customers and prospects. By delivering a 360-degree marketing view of customer data, coupled with cross-functional marketing process automation, including measurement and reporting, organizations gain greater campaign effectiveness and the ability to build sustainable, long-term customer relationships."
As more marketing organizations seek flexible, cost-effective deployment models, Neolane offers its platform in a number of popular on premise and on demand options including its Mid-sourcing® model, which helps companies quickly benefit from an enterprise-class marketing automation solution with little up-front investment. Thirty percent of Neolane's new customers in 2008 chose this model as a means to quickly and cost-effectively achieve results.
Inclusion in Gartner's 2009 "Magic Quadrant for CRM Multichannel Campaign Management" builds on Neolane's other noteworthy accomplishments, including being named IBM's 2008 Information Management "Rookie of the Year." It also reflects the momentum Neolane continues to generate in the market, including the 40 percent year over year revenue growth and its fifth straight year of profitability achieved in 2008.
