Oracle(R) CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM Customers Tap Into Social Intelligence With InsideView Smart Cloud(TM)

Enterprise Mash-Up Delivers Expanded Sales Intelligence Natively Within Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM


SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - October 8, 2009) - InsideView, an Oracle® PartnerNetwork and Oracle CRM On Demand Inner Circle member, today announced significant enhancements to its integration of SalesView with both Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM applications in support of Oracle's Social CRM initiative. InsideView's award-winning Sales Intelligence application, SalesView, discovers sales opportunities across both traditional editorial sources and emerging social media and presents them natively within CRM applications for optimum usability. The enhancements to SalesView include expanded coverage for international companies as well as small and mid-sized businesses (SMB), all powered by the InsideView Smart Cloud™ platform.

The InsideView Smart Cloud makes SalesView the first sales intelligence solution to allow plug-and-play addition and validation of content. Leveraging the Smart Cloud Platform, SalesView captures timely and relevant intelligence from thousands of content sources, including traditional data providers like Thomson Reuters, Capital IQ, Cortera, and emerging social media content like Jigsaw, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, Google Blogs, and more than 20,000 online news sources. The enterprise mash-up gives Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM users the power to access relevant news alerts, competitive intelligence, and social "buzz" on prospects, as well as relationship analysis natively within their Oracle Account, Contact, Lead, and Opportunity views. And Oracle users can export SalesView information to create a new account, contact, or lead record (or enrich an existing one) with a single click, enabling easy update of CRM data.

"InsideView's sales intelligence solution, SalesView, is now available for both Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM," said Anthony Lye, Senior Vice President, Oracle CRM On Demand. "InsideView's mission to deliver the most relevant social and traditional intelligence natively within our CRM applications is very complementary to Oracle's Social CRM initiative. Their Smart Cloud technology, enabling plug-and-play addition of any content, coupled with their expanded international coverage, should make the combined solution extremely valuable to even the world's largest enterprises."

"InsideView is pleased to offer significant enhancements to our integration with both Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM," said Rand Schulman, chief marketing officer at InsideView. "Now Oracle users have even more access to accurate, relevant and timely sales intelligence to uncover new opportunities where they need it most -- directly within their CRM."

InsideView, also a member of the Oracle PartnerNetwork, will showcase SalesView for Oracle CRM On Demand and Siebel CRM at Oracle OpenWorld 2009, held October 11-15 in San Francisco.
