Real Estate Advantage Implementation Named as Finalist for Realcomm’s 2009 Digie Award

After reviewing hundreds of nominations, Realcomm has announced the finalists for the prestigious Digital Impact “Digie” Award. Ascendix is pleased to announce that our client, Highwoods Properties has been named a finalist under the category “Best Use of automation” for a property owner in their use of Real Estate Advantage for Microsoft Dynamics CRM.

Highwoods worked with Ascendix to create an information bridge from lease and property data in their ERP back-office system to the prospect and tenant data residing in Outlook, Excel spreadsheets and sticky notes. The vision of their CIO, Art McCann was a 360 degree view of their prospect, tenant and broker relationships - from initial inquiry to lease renewal. Renewal processes have been automated, marketing and lead follow up has been standardized and forecasting and revenue planning has become much more visible and timely to the management team.

*Update*

The winners were announced on Tuesday, June 23rd, and although our implementation did not win the category, we remain very pleased and proud to have been named a top 3 finalist.

Although our solution for commercial real estate was first released in early 2007, and then on the Microsoft CRM 4.0 platform in June, 2008, we are still somewhat of a newcomer in this market and our clients are really starting to see the return on their investment in 2008 and 2009. We are in the process of building some great case studies from our 2008 implementations and are looking forward to making those available soon. We are also in the process of implementing Real Estate Advantage at several other top national brand companies this year and look forward to sharing those success stories in 2010.
