Computer Solutions and Software International’s VUE Software Named Best-of-Breed
Vendor in IDC Report
Coconut Creek, Florida, 11/29/2007 — Computer Solutions and Software International,
Inc. (CSSI®), today announced that its VUE Software was named a North American Best-of-Breed
Vendor in IDC’s report entitled “Worldwide Sales Incentive Compensation Management
Applications 2007 Vendor Profiles: State-of-the-Market Viewpoint and Future Market
Predictions”.
This IDC study provides an overview of the sales incentive compensation management
applications market, including the key factors contributing to its rising importance.
The study includes 13 in-depth profiles of both leading and emerging vendors and
identifies the characteristics that vendors will need to be successful in the future.
"Sales incentive compensation is one of the many subtle areas of an organization's
processes that has been overlooked in deference to more pressing automation requirements.
However, as organizations' enterprise applications environments evolve and become
more sophisticated, automating specific processes, such as sales incentive compensation,
creates the vital link between an organization's internal processes and those of
its front-office employees. This links an organization's operations with its call
to action," said Mary Wardley, research vice president of CRM Applications at IDC.
VUE Compensation Management is CSSI’s flagship incentive compensation management
system; it is specifically designed for the commission, incentive compensation,
and producer relationship needs of insurance carriers, large managing general agents
(MGAs), and third-party administrators. The solution allows insurance firms to better
manage their complex distribution channels, multifaceted product portfolios, and
tiered compensation plans.
Sales compensation has become more complex and critical to an organization's growth
and success, and as such, the recent IDC report finds that the market for automated
sales incentive compensation management applications has rebounded, and will continue
to increase its profile and growth. IDC also believes that the market for sales
incentive compensation solutions is now ripe for advancement, as companies of all
sizes will be increasingly driven to accelerate their corporate performance and
will require these tools to enable synchronization of selling strategies with execution.
