Schoolwires,
a leading provider of Web-based solutions designed to help districts
engage more effectively with all members of their K-12 communities to
support student, teacher and district success, has chosen Dell
Cloud Business Applications' integrated CRM solution to seamlessly
connect salesforce.com's Sales
Cloud to current on-premise applications.
Schoolwires needed a cloud-based CRM solution to help improve
efficiencies across the sales organization and integrate
salesforce.com's Sales
Cloud with Microsoft Dynamics, which is being used by its customer
support organization. Schoolwires evaluated various CRM and integration
offerings and determined that the Dell integrated
CRM solution offered a scalable and cost effective solution.
Schoolwires chose Dell for its comprehensive, end-to-end Dell services
and Dell Boomi integration.
"We are one of the fastest growing private companies serving the K-12
education community, supporting more than 1,300 customers. Dell's
integrated CRM solutions with salesforce.com's Sales Cloud and Dell
Boomi will allow us to seamlessly integrate our sales and Professional
Services Organizations to better serve the needs of our growing customer
base," said Doug Eicher, Vice President of Sales at Schoolwires. "The
integration also will give our account team members access to real-time
data that will help them identify additional school districts that would
benefit from our solutions. Being able to rely on Dell to deliver and
support the entire solution from implementation to ongoing maintenance
is a tremendous advantage."
"We are thrilled to help Schoolwires continue to grow their business and
better support the critical needs of our K-12 education community," said
Paulette Altmaier, VP and GM of Global Small and Medium Business
Solutions, Dell. "Their selection of our integrated CRM offer with
turnkey end-to-end services validates the growing market need for total
cloud solutions."
