Invoke Solutions Named "Cool Vendor" by Leading Analyst Firm Vendors Selected for the "Cool Vendor Report" are Innovative, Impactful and Intriguing

WALTHAM, MA -- March 29, 2006 -- Invoke Solutions, a leading innovator of real-time, interactive research technologies, today announced it has been included in the list of “Cool Vendors” in the “Cool Vendors in CRM Marketing and Analytics Report, 2006” published on March 20, 2006 by Ed Thompson, Scott Nelson, Kimberly Collins, et al., of Gartner Inc. 

The companies represented in Gartner’s report have developed new delivery models and new ways for their clients to use customer insight and relationships to build better and more profitable businesses.  In the report Gartner defines a "cool vendor" as offering technologies or solutions that are:

  • Innovative:  The vendor has developed technologies and products that enable users to do things they never could before.
  • Impactful:  The vendor has developed technologies and products that have or will have business impact. It isn't just "technology for the sake of technology."
  • Intriguing:  The vendor has developed technologies and products that have caught our interest/curiosity during the past six months or so.

"We believe being selected by Gartner as a “Cool Vendor” is recognition of Invoke’s innovative technology and the significant impact we have on an organization’s ability to better understand their customers,” said Ben Cesare, President, Invoke Solutions.  “Only Invoke enables organizations to collect valuable insight from their customers and other key constituents in a live interactive environment, so they can make critical business decisions more confidently and extremely quickly.”

Invoke Solutions provides a unique technology platform for conducting live Internet-based research sessions with a highly targeted audience (large or small), enabling instant feedback and analysis for faster, smarter decision making. Invoke’s proprietary methodology gives research professionals the ability to collect large-scale qualitative feedback as well as robust quantitative metrics in an interactive environment with the ability to probe deeper and refine findings in the moment.  Because it is live, companies can involve all the necessary stakeholders in the research giving them the ability to analyze and react to results in real time. By using Invoke to support key decision-making processes, organizations can reduce risk, drive innovation, and increase understanding of their customers while saving time and money.
