| HDI SouthEast Regional Sponsor — Cherwell Software |

www.cherwellsoftware.com
Utilizing our CBAT, we empower your IT staff with the ability to
quickly build any integrated business application—without a programmer—and
without needing access to source code. But your IT staff need not start from
scratch; they can utilize "business blueprints" that we have designed or that
were developed by our customers. Your IT staff can utilize the Cherwell
Development Platform™, a Codeless Business Application Technology, to customize
the blueprints for your specific work-flows and business processes. Our pricing
is not based on how many business applications you build or utilize with
Cherwell, but by how many concurrent users access the system. We have one
customer who commented that they believe they can replace 30 of their
non-integrated business applications using Cherwell. The Cherwell Development
Platform is an extensible CBAT development environment, built from the ground up
using Microsoft’s .NET framework. This unique technology ultimately enables your
company to have an enterprise IT management suite of business software
applications that are intrinsically integrated. And best of all, this single
platform is simple and inexpensive to implement, administer, and maintain—we
guarantee it!
- We understand and are passionate about IT Service Management—it’s what we
love to do and it will forever be our beach-head
- We have used our experience to design Cherwell Service Management, which
includes Pink Elephant® Verified ITIL v3 best practices "out-of-the-box"
- We make the implementation of IT best practices quick, easy, and affordable.
We will get you up and running better and faster than any of our mid-market or
enterprise competitors—typically within 2 weeks; and
- We have more delivery options available for our customers than any of our
competitors, including the offering of SaaS 3.0—utilizing either a rich-client
or browser-based interface.
