CLOUDFORCE 2010 - SAN JOSE, Calif. - JUNE 22, 2010 – Xactly Corporation, the leader in on-demand sales performance management (SPM), today announced it has launched Xactly ExpressTM on salesforce.com’s ChatterExchange, helping to accelerate the market shift to Cloud 2, the next cloud computing paradigm. Xactly Express is among the first apps to leverage the social components of Chatter available in the Force.com platform. These new apps can all be found on the ChatterExchange, a brand new category for social enterprise apps that is now part of AppExchange 2.
Developing and managing compensation plans often requires close collaboration across multiple business stakeholders. By integrating Chatter into Xactly Express, users can communicate in real-time without ever leaving the application – expediting questions and approvals and improving overall compensation management efficiency.
“For many SMB customers, time efficiency is a must,” said Christopher Cabrera, founder and CEO, Xactly Corporation. “Enhancing Xactly Express with Chatter enables our SMB customers to quickly and efficiently collaborate across teams, share documents and manage projects in real-time. With Chatter, Xactly Express customers can spend less time managing the administrative side of comp and more time optimizing it to be a strategic and behavior altering weapon.”
“Chatter delivers the next evolution in enterprise collaboration and provides leading salesforce.com partners, like Xactly, the ability to offer customers new value and efficiencies through the power of real-time communication,” said Kendall Collins, chief marketing officer, salesforce.com. “The shift to Cloud 2 promotes collaboration. Companies can visit the AppExchange 2 and easily get started using Chatter and Xactly Express to reduce the barriers across multiple business stakeholders and improve communication and customer service.”
Companies of all sizes and all industries have realized that cloud computing can deliver tremendous success with low cost and is fast and easy to use. With the rise of Facebook, Google and Twitter, companies are now transitioning to Cloud 2, employing the social networking features made popular by the consumer Web, and deploying them in the enterprise entirely in the cloud.
Xactly Express is a powerful self-service sales compensation application built natively on the Force.com platform for Salesforce CRM customers. Xactly Express extends the value of a company’s investment in Salesforce CRM by enabling them to rapidly create sales compensation plans, calculate commissions, and export payments to payroll, all from a single, easy-to-use application. Xactly, a long time partner of salesforce.com, offers both Xactly Express and its flagship Xactly Incent incentive compensation management solution on the AppExchange 2.
