Service Businesses / Cloud-based Solutions

Vtrenz was a pioneer in SaaS (Software as a Service), Cloud-based marketing solutions. Vtrenz provided leading, affordable Enterprise Marketing Management (“EMM”) solutions for small and medium-size businesses (“SMBs”) that allowed its customers to save time, reduce costs, increase lead generation, increase sales opportunities and revenue. Deployed as an application solutions’ provider (“ASP”) or Cloud-based solution at an affordable annual subscription rate, the company possessed a disruptive business model to large software vendors that offered similar capabilities with (“EMM”) solutions that are unaffordable to SMBs with massive upfront prices plus large annual maintenance fees and internal IT costs. To deploy iMarketing Automation™, its clients required no software, no servers, and no IT department typical of other EMM solutions that are too costly for SMBs. The company merged with SilverPop in 2007, creating the largest on demand eMarketing service provider at that time. In 2008, Vtrenz was recognized by Forrester as the #1 Marketing Automation vendor based on both business value provided by the product and market suitability. In 2014, SilverPop was acquired by IBM for cash, largely to obtain the marketing automation capability originally developed by Vtrenz.
