Vertical Solutions Positioned in the "Magic Quadrant for Field Service Management"

Evaluation based on Completeness of Vision and Ability to Execute

Cincinnati, OH — June 11, 2009 — Vertical Solutions, Inc (VSI), an award-winning developer of Service Management Solutions, announces that it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in its Magic Quadrant for Field Service Management.

In business since 1986, VSI provides world-class software and services to customers around the globe. Contact centers and field service operations alike reap significant benefits by deploying the modular PowerHelp application, as it offers in-depth functionality across the board.

“I believe the Magic Quadrant for Field Service Management offers insight into the market at a time when companies are seeking ways to improve their efficiencies, and we are extremely pleased that VSI’s PowerHelp is included,” says Ron Wegmann Sr., CEO of Vertical Solutions. “Today’s challenging economy requires all businesses, including those that deliver support and field service, to maximize revenue while minimizing costs. It is more important than ever to retain customers, and those who demonstrate exceptional customer service and concentrate on increasing customer loyalty will prosper. Our PowerHelp Service Management solution provides the features and functionality needed to streamline operations and achieve these goals.”

The report states that, “Field service is increasingly viewed as an integral part of a unified customer strategy, improved over time as part of a careful project. It is as integral as sales, marketing, and customer support to product-centric businesses.”

PowerHelp is a next-generation technology that enables any external service center, customer service, service provider, or human resources environment to dynamically manage information. Its open platform helps service organizations and contact centers combine various contact channels from different vendors and technology into a single view while providing seamless support that carries across all touch points in an organization.
