Intelestream and GrinMark Partner to Provide Microsoft Office Addin for Open Source CRM Customers

The Partnership will allow Intelestream to provide enhanced CRM functionality to the North American Open Source CRM market.

Chicago, IL, November 24, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Intelestream, Inc., the leader in Open Source Customer Relationship Management (CRM) consulting, today announced the company has formed a strategic partnership with GrinMark to provide North American customers with the Microsoft Office Addin for SugarCRM, intelecrm™, and info@hand applications. Intelestream will also offer other Grinmark software solutions including the Activities Monitor, Travel Calendar, and GrinMark Machine Parks.

"We recommend GrinMark's Microsoft Office Addin because it is affordable and integrates the entire suite of MS Office applications with the open source products we support," states Intelestream's CEO Jason Green. "Up until recently, this market has been dominated by cost-prohibitive applications with limited functionality. GrinMark finally changes that with a richer functioning product for half the price."

"A GrinMark / Intelestream partnership makes a lot of sense. We have developed a great product and now Intelestream can help us by expanding it deeper into the Open Source CRM arena, where Intelestream is well respected as a leading player," states GrinMark CEO Alexey Grinevich.
