Touchtone Partners with GoToMyPC for Real-time Demos of Wintouch eCRM

August 21, 2002 – Costa Mesa, CA – Touchtone Corporation, developer of Wintouch® eCRM for IBM iSeries – AS/400 servers, announced an agreement with Expertcity, Inc., the leading provider of Web-based remote-access and customer-support technologies, to use GoToMyPC™ a remote-access service for live, online demonstrations of Wintouch eCRM. Expertcity's award-winning screen-sharing technology – GoToMyPC – enables users to view and control a remote computer.

"Until recently, we had been using another online solution to demonstrate Wintouch, but remote viewers were frustrated with the time lag between our active desktop demonstration and what they were able to see online. In addition, we often lost our connection during critical demonstrations and were dissatisfied with the vendor’s customer support," remarked Rich Hall, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Touchtone.

"Needless to say, our sales prospects began to get the impression that our product was the problem not the online host – this was not a good performance for any Customer Relationship Management solution." Touchtone’s sales team extensively researched the available options and selected GoToMyPC as the best solution currently available – by far ahead of any of its competitors.

"GoToMyPC access is simple, quick and consistent. Now we are able to quickly and easily demonstrate Wintouch eCRM to prospects around the world. GoToMyPC virtually eliminated the lag time from our demonstration to what our prospects see," stated Touchtone’s Channel Manager, Alli Breton. "We highly recommend the solution to all of our partners, customers and prospects – not just for an online demo of Wintouch but for all of their remote-access and internal training needs."
