"Re-architecting our sales enablement solutions to provide organizations with cloud-based applications that can operate independently or with one another has transformed what is possible in the sales enablement space," said SAVO's Chief Executive Officer Mark O'Connell. "We've invested heavily in the development of these new apps to ensure they are reliable, scalable, secure and easy-to-use. Being recognized for our solution suite's ability to enable organizations to meet revenue initiatives is further affirmation that the work we are doing for our customers is paying off."

In addition to altering its delivery model to better meet the needs of today's marketers and sales reps, SAVO also forged significant partnership agreements with industry leaders such as Force Management, Microsoft, Miller Heiman, Oracle, Richardson and SAP to increase the company's complementary offerings to sales processes, messaging and CRM tools.

"The 2013 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 companies are exemplary cases of those spurring growth in a tough market through innovation," said Eric Openshaw, vice chairman, Deloitte LLP and U.S. technology, media and telecommunications leader. "This year's list is a who's who of companies behind the most exciting and innovative products and services in the technology space. We congratulate the Fast 500 companies and look forward to what they do next."

"The fastest growing companies in the U.S. are drivers of constant innovation and operate with the agility to stay ahead of a quickly evolving marketplace, and software, biotech/pharma and internet companies continue to be at the forefront," added James Atwell, national managing partner of the Emerging Growth Company practice, Deloitte Services LP. "The companies excelling in these sectors have a startup mentality that allows them to be nimble and adapt quickly, which is why they consistently lead the list of fast-growing companies each year."

Working to enable organizations to win more deals and sell smarter, SAVO continues to update and build out its sales enablement application suite based off demonstrated and anticipated industry needs, including the recent launch of CRM Opportunity Pro, now available on the AppExchange.
