Successful Deployment of MicroStrategy
Mobile™ Demonstrates Mobile Technology Best Practices
MicroStrategy® Incorporated (Nasdaq: MSTR), a leading worldwide
provider of enterprise software platforms, today announced that
Weiler Abrasives Group, a global manufacturer based in Cresco, PA,
has won the 2016 Ventana Research Leadership Award in the Mobile
Technology category. Weiler Corporation is a world-class industry
leader and global manufacturer of surface conditioning
solutions.
The Ventana Research Leadership Awards honor individuals,
organizations, supporting vendors and consulting firms for their
accomplishments using technology to drive exceptional results in
achieving their goals and objectives, and for going the extra mile
to advance the use of technology through best practices and
leadership.
“Congratulations to our customer Weiler Abrasives Group for
winning the Leadership Award in the Mobile Technology category and
embracing MicroStrategy Mobile to help drive greater manufacturing
efficiencies that improve the bottom line,” said Michael J. Saylor,
CEO, MicroStrategy Incorporated. “Empowering organizations to
mobilize an information system, business process, or web
application with custom mobile apps facilitates intuitive
discovery, precise action and incredible results.”
“At Weiler, we are focused on informing our decisions with
real-time data,” said Bill Dwyre, Managing Director, Americas,
Weiler Abrasives Group. “With MicroStrategy, we’re able to look at
our dashboards and see how we’re performing against KPIs. This kind
of insight is vital for us to uncover the highest value
opportunities that grow our business. MicroStrategy has enabled us
to do things that are differentiated, more efficient, and more
profitable than our competitors.”
Improving the Sales Journey
Weiler was pleased by the simplicity of MicroStrategy Mobile,
the speed of its deployment and the ease of use of the software.
Weiler’s application took only one month to deploy. Weiler went
from paper-based, old reporting methods to MicroStrategy’s dynamic
mobile application platform, where the sales team receives
up-to-date information in real-time. MicroStrategy Mobile helps
improve the productivity of sales meetings because each meeting can
be tailored and personalized to the customer’s needs.
Weiler has equipped its sales team members with MicroStrategy
Mobile on their iPads so that they can access partner sales data no
matter their location. When a Weiler sales employee visits a
partner site and talks about ways to grow the business in the local
market, the sales employee arrives at the engagement prepared and
ready to walk through actual sales results in real-time, drill into
dips or spikes across products, markets or territories, and show
the partner where to react quickly to close gaps.
“Point-of-sale data is the barometer of progress and being able
to share that real-time insight using MicroStrategy is critically
important,” added Dwyre. “MicroStrategy allows us to walk through
sales performance in a way that isn’t available with any other
company. We can target opportunities and drill into that data,
showing our partner how we’re helping them grow in ways that they
probably didn’t have insight into because their business is much
larger than just our engagement with them.”
