MBS Dev, an e-commerce and operations management software provider for dealers, distributors, wholesalers and resellers, announced a marketing alliance with sales-i, a business intelligence software provider.  

By integrating sales-i's purchasing analytics, trending and alerts with MBS Dev's e-commerce and business operations software, office products dealers will be presented with data driven decision making power.  The marketing alliance between sales-i and MBS Dev unites two software solutions at the forefront of today's technology needs for reseller organizations.  

"We are very excited to announce this marketing alliance with sales-i because they are clearly the front runner in sales development tools for office products dealers," said Paul Hesser, chief operating officer, MBS Dev.  "Integrating sales-i's customer analytics and sales productivity tools into our Distribution Suite gives our customers best of breed and complete sales visibility to drive their business." 

"We looked at a lot of options for our business systems and reporting tools," said Harry Macey, president, Perry Office Plus. "MBS Dev and sales-i seem to be the two vendors that are consistently improving their solutions to better support dealers.  The combination of the two systems has been a major step change for us." 

MBS Dev's Distribution Suite is an application that gives distributors the capabilities they need to service customers while reducing operational overhead.  By integrating sales-i's ability to transform sales data into targeted high-quality opportunities, MBS Dev is able to provide a single, secure environment for all of their customers' operational data.
