We are rapidly continuing our development of Sales Cycle Manager On Demand with Private Release version 1.5, now live and 1.6 coming out soon!

Private Release 1.5 brought forward some powerful features including enhanced security, currency and localization support. and import and export capabilities.

The Network Access feature lets you define an IP address white list, which means you can lock out login attempts from network locations outside of your range of specified addresses, adding even more security to your sales opportunity management process.

International number formatting can now be set as an organization default as well as individually set for each user. This is part of our larger road map of full international and localization support.

Speaking of international support, Sales Cycle Manager On Demand is already available in English, German and Portuguese languages. Like number formats, language preferences can be set per user, which means if you have an international team each person can use Sales Cycle Manager in their preferred language. More languages will be available in the future.

The importing feature enables users of other editions of Sales Cycle Manager to import their IBOs (sales opportunities) and get going in Sales Cycle Manager On Demand with no delay. You can also pull sales opportunities in from any other SFA or CRM tool or spreadsheet.

If your sales organization has multiple lists, databases or collections of sales opportunity information, Sales Cycle Manager On Demand is an excellent way to bring it all together, organized and accessible, into one secure place. The role hierarchy feature ensures that each user has access only to the opportunities that they need to, or should have, access to. Then, since your sales opportunity information is already consolidated, when you need to see a sales forecast it’s only a click away.

Another feature of Private Release version 1.5 is the export function for the IBO List view. This means you can quickly pull a .csv format copy of your IBOs (sales opportunities). You can also filter down to a list of sales opportunities based on status (open, closed, canceled, won or lost) or filter by company, contact name, or the description of the sales opportunity.

Private Release 1.6 is just around the corner, so stay tuned. As always, we are happy to hear any feedback or questions you have, letusknow@salesways.com.
