Pythagoras Partners with GaleForce Solutions to Deliver Financial Services CRM Solutions in the UK
April 15th, 2008 – Pythagoras Communications, a leading European provider of integrated business software solutions, today announced that it has signed a partnership agreement with GaleForce SolutionsTM to provide financial services organisations in the UK with CRM applications purpose-built for wealth management, investment and commercial banking, and capital market firms.
GaleForce Solutions, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, develops financial services-specific CRM solutions that help cultivate lasting, profitable customer relationships by integrating sales, marketing and front-line client service. Built on the Microsoft Dynamics CRM architecture, the highly tailored solutions address the unique business processes, security requirements, team roles, terminology and workflow specific to financial services business segments.
“We are extremely excited about this new partnership with GaleForce,” said Julian Stone, Pythagoras CEO. “This partnership will help us increase our leadership in the UK for supplying CRM solutions to Financial Services organisations.”
Pythagoras believes that the CRM application and implementation strategy chosen must parallel the way each company does business. And often, the way they do business changes – not to accommodate software, but to better serve their customers. Pythagoras’ pre-built customisations developed on the core CRM product allows for rapid implementation and simplified future customisation.
“Pythagoras understands that financial services organisations have unique business processes and face unique challenges,” said Aziz Pirani, GaleForce Solutions CEO. “Their deep CRM expertise and first-hand knowledge of the industry will help guarantee the delivery of a solution designed specifically to support each client’s goals and unique way of doing business.”
Pythagoras will resell and deploy GaleForce Solutions Microsoft DynamicsTM CRM-based systems for wealth management, capital markets, and investment and retail banking in the UK. Microsoft Dynamics CRM is currently used by more than 11,500 organisations and 500,000 individual users worldwide.
