Carlsbad-based MaintenanceNet, Inc. has announced that its MaintenanceNet Service360 Auto Quote deployment at Ingram Micro has earned a Computerworld Data+ Editor’s Choice award for its innovative use of big data to support Ingram Micro reseller partners. IDG’s Computerworld presented the accolade to Ingram Micro, the world’s largest wholesale technology distributor and a global leader in IT supply-chain, mobile device lifecycle services and logistics solutions, at its 2013 Data+ Conference, Sept. 8 – 10, 2013 in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Ingram Micro was one of 12 honorees singled out for this high-profile awards program, which identifies organizations that achieve exceptional results with big data to predict business trends and monetize information. This elite group of winners was featured in Computerworld on August 26 in advance of the 2013 Data+ Conference.

MaintenanceNet’s Service360 Auto Quote is a service revenue automation solution that automates the time-consuming administrative tasks of creating and delivering service renewal quotes to customers. Designed to ensure that sales organizations can quickly close “low-dollar” service sales, the offering helps resellers capture up to 100 percent of the service revenue opportunity available to them, providing comprehensive visibility into service renewal opportunities across their installed base. Auto Quote nurtures the renewal cycle so that MaintenanceNet customers such as Ingram Micro can generate highly qualified sales leads that its reseller partners can immediately take action on. 

“We’re very proud to have played a role in this innovative big data initiative for our valued customer, Ingram Micro, and to support them in their efforts to maximize profits and revenue for their channel partners,” says Kelly Crothers, vice president of marketing for MaintenanceNet. “Auto Quote was designed to provide a high-value return on investment by turning data into actionable information. We’re thrilled that Computerworld has recognized what Auto Quote has achieved for Ingram Micro and its channel partners.”
