Fremont, CA October 10, 2006 -- Soffront® Software Inc., www.soffront.com, a leading provider of CRM software, today announced that Excel Energy
Technologies, Ltd. has implemented Soffront CRM as a hosted application to improve customer service and better track customer information. Excel provides a fully-integrated enterprise
system to manage and monitor key equipment such as HVAC, refrigeration, and lighting at hundreds of sites for national chain businesses.
's8220;The Soffront CRM software has improved our ability to track customer data and act more quickly and efficiently on that information,'s8221; said Mark A. Agee, president and COO of
Excel. 's8220;We track everything's8212;service tickets, customer requests, work orders, installed equipment, monitoring statistics, and service calls. With Soffront, we can keep more
detailed records and compile comprehensive reports in less time.'s8221;
Excel reviewed numerous solutions and chose Soffront CRM because it best met their needs. Ease of customization and web-based functionality were two features that were extremely important
to Excel.
's8220;We are impressed with the flexibility of the software. We can easily change cosmetic items on the desktop to meet individual preferences,'s8221; explained Randy Crow, Customer
Service Manager, 's8220;We can also customize the software to meet additional functionality requirements, such as adding fields to tables to denote the status of monitored
equipment.'s8221;
A web-based solution was an absolute requirement for Excel because they have a geographically dispersed workforce. Regardless of location, employees can easily access Excel's8217;s
ticketing system via the Internet.
According to Crow, the ability to automatically link files to customer accounts is an important feature of the software. 's8220;We can easily link drawings, spreadsheets, emails, devices,
sensors, and reports to a customer's8217;s account. All of the tracked information about the customer, down to the serial number on a piece of equipment, is automatically linked to that
customer. This capability saves us a tremendous amount of time and provides us with valuable information that is easy to access.'s8221;
