Top Industry Magazine Recognizes KNOVA as Leader with Top Ratings for Product Functionality and Company Direction
Cupertino, CA, April 18, 2006 - KNOVA Software (OTC Bulletin Board: KNVS), a leading provider of Service Resolution Management applications, today announced that KNOVA was recognized as one of only two leaders in the Web-Support Services category of CRM Magazine's 2006 Service Awards.
Each year, CRM Magazine recognizes the industry's leading companies that are spearheading the CRM industry. The overall award rating is based on a composite score of CRM revenues; year-over-year revenue growth; and analyst ratings for customer satisfaction, depth of functionality, and company direction. In the April edition of the magazine, editors rated KNOVA highest for both product functionality and company direction.
Excerpts from the magazine's award coverage include:
- "Compared with its competitors KNOVA has the broadest self-service and knowledge management capabilities, plus strong architecture that should become even more robust with additional releases later this year."
- "KNOVA has really set the tone for the industry in this space of Web-support Services. They need only to execute what they already put into motion, and they will be fantastic."
- "KNOVA's applications have been highlighted in several analyst reports, based mostly on its reputation for brand, delivery and technology."
- "Analysts say KNOVA's level of service is most consistent of all of the leaders and its vision of solving a business problem is clear."
"This prestigious award from CRM Magazine further validates KNOVA's product differentiation and market leadership in web self-service," commented Ben Kaplan, VP of marketing for KNOVA Software. "Optimizing the customer service experience requires both best-in-class search technology and rich, process-driven applications. KNOVA will continue to innovate, powering adaptive customer experiences that deliver real ROI and improve customer satisfaction."
