Varicent Software Announces Strategic Partnership with OpenSymmetryVaricent Software, an innovator and provider of the only comprehensive application for sales performance management (SPM), recently announced a strategic partnership with OpenSymmetry, a largest independent consultancy specializing in sales performance management.
Other partners of OpenSymmetry include Actuate, Callidus Software, nGenera, Oracle, Sungard, TerrAlign and Xactly.
Callidus Software Broadens Performance Management Capabilities with Introduction of TrueTarget
The new SaaS-based software module, TrueTarget™, combines SPM and Employee Performance Management (EPM) capabilities to deliver Pervasive Performance Management (PPM) across the entire enterprise. The concept of PPM offers a single, business-wide, pay-for-performance solution for companies.
Pervasive Performance Management goes beyond standard incentive compensation management and includes objectives alignment, goal management, bonus allocation and employee evaluation.
I could be wrong, but as far as I know the only other major vendor currently offering a similar end-to-end solution is SuccessFactors. [Disclaimer: I have not seen Callidus TrueTarget or any of SuccessFactors' solutions yet]
