Selligy Releases Sales Opportunity Manager

Selligy today introduced a mobile sales application that includes the Selligy Opportunity Manager, a tool that allows salespeople to do what-if analyses when setting and updating their sales goals.

With Selligy Opportunity Manager, salespeople can adjust all of their sales forecast numbers, preview the totals, make adjustments, see the new totals, and then record the changes all at once with a single save. Selligy estimates that with this feature, salespeople will perform forecasting tasks roughly 90 percent faster; performing the same task in traditional CRM systems can require navigating 30 to 40 pages.

"Selligy is ushering in a new level of sales productivity," said Edward McGinnis, vice president of worldwide sales at CliQr, a provider of hybrid cloud-application migration and management solutions and Selligy customer, in a statement. "What used to require dozens of pages in CRM can be done with a few finger taps on the smartphone in Selligy."

In addition to these new features, Selligy will now be available on the Android operating system.

"CRM was born in the 1990s, when the introduction of the laptop gave salespeople computing power on the road for the first time. In the past 20 years, CRM has not really changed," said Nilay Patel, Selligy co-founder and CEO, in a statement. "Now, mobile is paving the way for a new breed of activity-based, mobile CRM applications that are upending traditional CRM. Just like the first wave of selling applications, these new applications are giving enterprises dramatically more visibility into their sales pipeline."
