Fonteva was founded based in part on the belief that Salesforce was the best option available for CRM functionality and the desire to bring its power to membership based organizations which have been grossly underserved by their software. At that time, Salesforce was solidly entrenched as top CRM contender, aligned with offerings from Oracle and SAP.
Over the last five years, the market has clearly separated Salesforce from the CRM pack based on data released by the International Data Corporation (IDC) through its most recent Worldwide Semiannual Software Tracker. While alternative CRM offerings have seen their market share decline or stagnate, Salesforce has seen consistent strong growth over this period to its current position of nearly 20% of the CRM market.
As one of just 40 Salesforce Premier Partners (out of 1200 total partners), and the #1 Salesforce.org ISV, Fonteva is uniquely positioned to provide associations and membership based organizations access to the power of Salesforce through its Fonteva for Associations platform.
“At Fonteva we get excited when we see the type of growth Salesforce is experiencing because we know that will translate into a better product and even more success for our customers,” said Fonteva co-founder and Chief Customer Officer Paul Lundy. “At the end of the day, that’s what we’re working for – to help our customers achieve the success that aligns with their organization’s mission. The explosive growth that continues to be a hallmark of Salesforce is just another validation point as we move forward.”
