Kimble’s “Rockstar” Status Will Help Global Expansion – Enterprise Times

In an Enterprise Times report on Kimble achieving “Rockstar” status as a Sage Independent Software Vendor (ISV), industry commentator Steve Brooks comments that this strengthens the relationship between Sage, Kimble and Salesforce and will help Kimble to expand globally. He also writes that this is likely to be “unwelcome news” for competitor Financial Force, bringing Kimble into more sales conversations in the upper and mid market.

Brooks writes: “With SageX3 and Kimble fully integrated it delivers a solution on the Salesforce platform that is closer to being a complete ERP solution. ” He adds: “There is more to Sage than just the mid market ERP solution. It may be that a stronger Sage + Salesforce partnership could be seen at Dreamforce later this year.”

Drilling down into the implications for others in the PSA market, Brooks concludes: “There is one obvious competitor and that is FinancialForce. For them this is another piece of unwelcome news. It will bring Kimble into more sales conversations in the upper mid market than currently. That is especially true in the US where Intacct are strong.”
