Whew…things have been flying here at Buzzient, so much so that blog posting got pushed back. Just a few updates for our friends:
- 6 new customer signings, including a bulge bracket investment bank, leading life sciences infrastructure company, SEO/SEM Agency, University and others.
- Multiple new releases, including the Santa Release (Dec 09) as well as a new dashboard for monitoring top users in social media
What’s also great is that our message around combining social media with CRM applications finally seems to be taking hold. Analysts are now discussing Social CRM in everyday conversations, when 3 years ago we got the “RCA Dog Watching TV” look when describing this vision. Thanks to all our great employees, customers, partners and stakeholders for helping us get here!
More to come…

Ok, forgive me, but I did catch at least a bit of “Lord of the Rings” this weekend, purely by accident. Inherent to the plot of the trilogy is that one master Ring united all of the individual Rings of Power. Each individual Ring packed a wallop, but you really needed to pull them all together to make them coherent. In an obvious stretch of the analogy, what we’ve done at Buzzient is build that One Ring, to pull together all the myriad Rings into coherence(…I know, I’m bending things a bit, but stay with me here…;o)).
In the world of social media, we’re now seeing individual application companies build their own social media integration and analytics solutions. Companies such as Salesforce.com and RightNow have recently announced cloud-monitoring capabilities, designed to draw social media data into their applications. These solutions are fine for the one-app shop, but in reality complex enterprises have one of everything. So, you need One Ring..er…Application to unite them all. That’s what Buzzient Enterprise is all about. With one application, we can integrate social media data with Salesforce.com, SugarCRM, and now….(drum-roll…) Oracle CRM OnDemand !!!!
We’re already getting lots of interest, and we look forward to opening a sales office in the Shire very soon…;o)
