PRLog (Press Release) - Feb. 1, 2013 - Sydney, Australia ― Worldwide software provider, Cincom Systems (http://www.cincom.com.au/) has much to be happy about as it starts a new calendar year. Its fast-growing Cincom Intelligent Selling System division, makers of Cincom Acquire (http://acquire.cincom.com/)® and Cincom Guru (http://guru.cincom.com/)™ software, has improved its 2012 global fiscal year new business revenue by almost 300 percent over the previous year.

Expanded Partner Network

One of those high potential future initiatives—expanding sales channels—progressed significantly when Cincom Acquire configure, price, quote software was added to Cincom Systems’ Global Independent Software Vendor (ISV) agreement (http://newsroom.cincom.com/2012/07/cincom-extends-global-...) with Microsoft Dynamics.

Increased Customer Base

Fujitsu Frontech North America Inc. , Smeal Fire Apparatus and Caroil System S.p.a. announced successful implementations of Cincom selling software this year while many other current users began significantly extensive multi-site, enterprise-wide implementations. New sales were penned this year including Heil Trailer, Stewart & Stevenson and Fortis Alberta.  In addition, many existing customers significantly increased their investments in Cincom’s best-in-market Configure, Price, Quote solutions by extending usage into additional users and new business operations.

New Cloud Offering
