January 27, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
QuickArrow, Inc., the leader in Professional Services Automation (PSA) and Management Solutions, today announced that the company has been named one of the top 25 service providers by ASPnews.com.

The ASPnews website is the world’s premier source of news and analysis for and about the Application Service Provider (ASP) and Web Services industry. The ASPnews “Top 50” includes the top 25 service providers and the top 25 enablers. Inclusion in the service providers list requires that companies meet the following criteria:

• Have the provision of network-based applications and/or services as their core business
• Have a substantial and active customer base for those services
• Demonstrate proven revenue streams
• Be innovators in the online delivery of software-based services
• Be recognized as a leader by others within the industry

QuickArrow’s Software as a Service (SaaS) PSA application incorporates Financial Management, Billing Management, Resource Management, and Advanced Reporting capabilities to streamline and automate Professional Services Organizations.

According to Forrest Stroud, Managing Editor for ASPnews, "QuickArrow is a company we've been tracking for several years and an ASP that's really caught our eye as a leading up-and-comer in the industry. The firm easily hits the mark on each of our criteria for inclusion on the Top 25 list of ASPs, and we're really excited to see what QuickArrow has in store for the future."

QuickArrow CEO, Elizabeth Davis, replied “ASPnews is widely regarded as the leading authority in the ASP space, and we would like to thank Forrest Stroud and his entire team for this recognition. To be one of only 3 new companies on this list is a tremendous honor.”

Davis continued, “This has been a very exciting time for QuickArrow. We focused heavily on technology and product innovation in 2006, and as a result, we added 79 new clients and over 7,000 new users. We also invested heavily in our CRM and Client Support programs to help our clients drive user adoption and realize more value from the application, and we plan to continue to expand these programs in 2007.”

This announcement comes on the heels of QuickArrow’s December ’06 release, which added Subcontractor Invoice Reconciliation capabilities to support their clients’ Sarbanes-Oxley compliance initiatives, enhancements to their SOA supported Web Services interface, and further use of AJAX technology to enhance the application’s usability and performance.
