• 6 WizKid Award Winners Are AppExchange Partners

  Mar 27, 2008

  Industry analyst Beagle Research Group has announced its 2008 WizKid Award winners - and six of them are AppExchange partners, including Firepond, InsideView, LucidEra, Marketo, TerrAlign, and Verticals onDemand.

  From the report, available here, “This year’s class of WizKids represents a diverse group and one thing that holds the group together, beyond leverage of the on-demand model, is their orientation to helping companies to present to their customers a face that is easier to do business with.”

  More than 40,000 customer installs and 285,000 test drives have taken place on the AppExchange, as customers find and deploy partner applications to extend the benefits of SaaS throughout their enterprises.

  Congrats to the WizKid Award winners on their business success via the AppExchange and this great industry recognition from Beagle Research!
