Zyme Continues to Lead the CDM Industry in Technology Performance and Guaranteed Quality of Channel Data

REDWOOD SHORES, CA--(Marketwired - Sep 16, 2014) - Zyme, the leader in the rapidly expanding discipline of Channel Data Management (CDM), has taken another step to ensure the industry's most complete and accurate CDM solutions and expert services for its clients. No other CDM vendor can equal Zyme in global reach, speed of data collection, flexibility, scalability, quality of support, return on investment, and accuracy of channel data.

According to Market Overview: Channel Data Management, published by Forrester Research, Inc., "Sales through indirect channels are self-reported by partners and are often incomplete or inaccurate. As such, these estimates pose a financial risk to tech vendors and present many challenges when it comes to accurately forecasting their channel's business."

To further reduce such risk, Zyme is expanding its network of Channel Data Analyst Centers by adding a new facility in Shanghai, China, where skilled data stewards provide deep channel expertise with local language support and regional business knowledge to deliver validation and enrichment of POS and channel inventory data. This includes data refinements such as granular identification of precise sold-to and ship-to locations, onboarding of new channel partners, and resolution of any cultural, language, or local practice-based discrepancies that competitive channel data products merely reject or ignore.

Zyme's superior solutions and services ensure the highest possible accuracy for POS transaction records and the industry's only guaranteed channel data quality of service levels. Zyme plans to open additional Channel Data Analyst Centers with local language support in Europe and Latin America. The new Shanghai Center will initially include support for English, Mandarin, Korean, and Japanese.

"Since 2004, Zyme has developed what has proven to be the most complete and highest performing suite of channel data management solutions," said Ted Dimbero, Zyme Co-Founder and Chief Customer Officer. "And now, Zyme also offers the industry's most sophisticated set of professional services to complement these automated solutions. This synergistic blend of state-of-the art technology along with data steward expertise and guaranteed channel data quality is a primary reason that many global organizations are switching from other CDM solutions to Zyme."
