Siebel Systems, Inc. (www.siebel.com), a provider of customer-facing solutions, today announced that SBTI, a premier consulting services firm, chose Siebel CRM OnDemand over Salesforce.com for its hosted solution. Siebel CRM OnDemand allowed SBTI to improve and centralize communication with its customers and improve overall management and tracking of marketing program ROI.

SBTI delivers Performance Excellence, Six Sigma, Lean Enterprise and Business Process Improvement. As one of the original three Six Sigma deployment firms, SBTI provides the core competencies, knowledge transfer, and solutions needed to transform today's businesses in an ever-changing, competitive global market.

"Our business had grown to a point where we really needed to centralize and better manage our communications with customers. From the initial contact to closed customer, we wanted to identify the referral or program source and communicate more effectively," said Tobin Behling, Marketing Manager, SBTI, Inc.

In addition to quick deployment, limited up front investment, reliability and imminent scalability, SBTI went with Siebel CRM OnDemand because they believed that Siebel was the best long term partner. Siebel's Outlook Email Integration and robust marketing analytics will enable SBTI to measure the ROI of its marketing programs and improve lead conversion and close rates.
