PLEASANTON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 28, 2005-- FrontRange Solutions won the contact center industry's top CRM honor for its GoldMine® product in the 2005 ContactCenterWorld.com Members' Choice Awards, specifically "Best CRM Solution, EMEA." These awards are unique as users vote for the winners and there are no judging panels. The award program is another successful venue for the contact center industry's leading Web resource ContactCenterWorld.com, a global organization that sets the industry standards and attracts over 7,500 unique visitors a day to its site.

GoldMine enables organizations to implement best practices for sales and marketing programs, including obtaining Return on Investment (ROI) metrics. Specific metrics proof points provided by GoldMine include allowing sales and marketing professionals to view forecasted sales against marketing programs, as well as closed sales as a result of these programs. The software also enables users to track and analyze customer responses to identify effective campaigns.

"We're delighted to have received this prestigious award, which recognizes our commitment to customers and partners, as well as the ongoing development in the GoldMine product," said Greg Anderson, Senior Director of Product Marketing for the GoldMine business unit at FrontRange Solutions. "Our focus is providing customers with a CRM solution that not only offers greater productivity to help them better meet their business objectives, but one that provides customer relationship continuity from small business to the distributed enterprise."

Commenting on the awards, Raj Wadhwani, Founder and Editor In Chief, added: "For the third year the industry honors the best of the best. This year, competition was extremely high amongst the 83 entrants and over 3,500 members voted. Unlike other award programs, ours recognizes a company's achievement in whatever regions of the world they operate in. For FrontRange this is a great award -- the quality of the votes from their customers was exceptional and this is why they won the award. It goes without saying that we feel every company who entered deserves credit for putting themselves in a program where customers vote -- a challenge that many other vendors in the industry would not entertain."
