Synygy Releases New Version of SYNYGY PORTAL™


On-Demand SPM Module Allows Non-Technical Administrators to Create Custom Web-Based Applications without the Need for, or Cost of, Programmers

Chester, Pa., March 5, 2009 —Synygy Inc., the largest and most experienced provider of sales performance management (SPM) solutions, today announced the release of version 11.4 SYNYGY PORTAL™, one of the modules in Synygy’s suite of on-demand SPM applications. This latest release is part of a series of Version 11 updates that feature a complete rewrite of Synygy’s on-demand SPM applications.

SYNYGY PORTAL allows non-technical administrators—rather than expensive programmers or third-party consultants—to create and maintain custom web-based applications for salespeople, sales managers, sales executives, and sales analysts. The module includes the ability to integrate content from all Synygy modules and from external applications, organize content uniquely for each user or user group, design custom home pages uniquely for each user or user group, and define optional certificates that require users to view and agree to notices before viewing reports.

Four role-specific web-based applications that are crucial to effectively managing sales performance are easily configured in SYNYGY PORTAL:

SALESPERSON PORTAL
Using the fully integrated SYNYGY PORTAL module, salespeople are able to:

  • receive sales compensation, sales performance, and other sales reports and analyses, the viewing of which is tracked
  • use interactive ‘what-if’ calculators to see how selling efforts translate into potential earnings
  • receive and confirm acceptance of sales compensation plans and other documents
  • review objectives, objectives scores, and manager comments on objective performance

Stiffler, president and CEO. “With the broadest and most complete set of SPM applications, Synygy continues to demonstrate its leadership and innovation in the rapidly growing SPM market.”
