We normally do not publish press releases directly, but this is an exciting announcement. It is a step in the right direction, however, according to the article, it is only the Lead Management system that is integrated. We would have liked to have seen the whole Sales Force Automation process linked over to Plex, including Opportunity Management, but this is a good start.
Plex Online Cloud ERP Offers Customers Expanded Integration
Plex Systems partners with Revolution Group to offer seamless ERP, CRM
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., Jan. 4, 2011 — Plex Systems, Inc., provider of the No. 1 rated manufacturing ERP software, today announced additional functionality options for its Plex Online customers who use Salesforce.com.
With a range of ERP features in its comprehensive system, Plex Online is already one of the top SaaS / cloud computing manufacturing solutions. Manufacturers that use bothSalesforce.com and Plex Online in their business operations will benefit from the seamless integration of the two applications.
Together with implementation partner Revolution Group, Plex Systems researched how Plex Online and Salesforce.com could interface and created a fully cloud-based integration of the lead management process.
“Plex Online provides a complete suite of CRM tools for managing the total sales process, from powerful quote tracking and order entry modules, to release accounting and shipment tracking, to revenue reporting,” noted Patrick Fetterman, Plex Systems vice president. “Yet, for customers that must keep their Salesforce.com deployment, Plex Online will now be able to integrate with it. Teaming with Revolution Group, the integration with Salesforce.com is an opportunity to provide manufacturers with even more functionality.”
Launched as one of the original cloud computing companies in 1999, Salesforce.com reported annual earnings exceeded $1.3b in the fiscal year ending on January 31, 2010. Based on Salesforce.com’s real-time, multitenant architecture, the company’s platform and CRM applications have revolutionized the way companies collaborate and communicate with their customer.
