Strategic Response Management becoming the next “must-have,” go-to-market SaaS solution for growth-oriented companies
BEAVERTON, Ore.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Responsive, the leader in Strategic Response Management software (SRM), today announced the company has enabled customers to respond to more than $500 billion in opportunities via its Responsive Platform. Strategic Response Management is rapidly becoming the next “must-have,” go-to-market SaaS solution as growth-oriented companies endeavor to put their best foot forward when responding to a growing number of deal-impacting information requests including RFPs (requests for proposals), RFIs (requests for information), security questionnaires and more.
“Out of 11,000 or so go-to-market solutions available on the market today, there are only a handful that materially impact customers’ business,” said Aragon Research CEO Jim Lundy. “Solutions such as the Responsive Platform, equipped with AI-powered Strategic Response Management capabilities, streamline labor-intensive and error-prone tasks, catering to revenue-generating businesses of all sizes.”
Today, Responsive has close to 2,000 customers of all sizes, across various industries and geographies. Key to Responsive’s success has been its deep commitment to rapid, customer-driven innovation, extensive incorporation of AI into its solutions from day one, and focus on delivering value to customers.
