Crestline is the Source for Great Green Giveaways

Crestline is the Source for Great Green Giveaways

Crestline Custom Imprinted Products, a direct marketing promotional products company, offers a specialty store filled with environmentally friendly custom imprinted items.

Lewiston, ME (PRWEB) February 19, 2009 -- Crestline Custom Imprinted Products, a direct marketing promotional products company (http://www.crestline.com) that trades on its easy, customer-friendly ordering process, offers scores of custom imprinted products made from environmentally-friendly materials.

"More and more consumers are becoming concerned about whether their purchases are harmful to the Earth," said Kim Beaudin, Crestline Product Manager.

"Show your customers and prospects you care about the environment, too, by making sure your promotional giveaways are ecologically-friendly."

Crestline's green specialty store (http://www.crestline.com/category/promotional+specialty+store+products/imprinted+green+environment+friendly.do) carries a wide variety of products that can be personalized with a company's custom logo, art or message and are made from Earth-friendly recycled, natural, biodegradable, or reusable materials.

Buying recycled products is one easy way to protect the environment. Not only do products made from post-consumer materials mean fewer natural resources are consumed, they also reduce the waste-stream, meaning less land is needed for landfills. Crestline offers many recycled products, including journals, pencils and pens, like the popular Ecolutions pen by Bic®.

Items made from biodegradable materials, which decompose over time, are another category of products that help to reduce the waste-stream. Many Crestline products, such as convention bags and the miniMax™ Highlighter, are now being made from revolutionary new biodegradable plastics.

Another popular category of green products are those made from natural or organic fibers, such as the Siam Tote, made from natural jute, or the Roll 'Em Up Organic Lunch Sack, made from unbleached organic cotton canvas. Environmentally conscious consumers often prefer such products because they are made from renewable resources, and without the use of potentially harmful chemicals or pesticides.

Reusuable products that replace traditionally disposable items are another popular variety of green promotions. As more states outlaw or tax plastic grocery bags, reusable grocery totes (http://www.crestline.com/category/promotional+bags+totes+products/reusable+eco+friendly+grocery+tote+bags.do) have become one of the most popular promotional items.

Crestline offers many green items priced under $5, making them perfect for cost-effective giveaways. Lower cost green promotional items include Bic® Eco Sticky Notes, Enviro-Cups, and dozens of others.

In addition to the thousands of products available on the company's Web site, Crestline has access to a network of hundreds of thousands of other items, virtually guaranteeing that, no matter what customers are looking for, they will be able to get their hands on just the right custom imprinted item.

About Crestline:

Crestline is a direct marketing company offering an extensive selection of reasonably priced, quality imprinted promotional products. Crestline's highest objective is to provide superior customer service, making the ordering process as straightforward and hassle-free for clients as possible. By utilizing several marketing channels, including printed catalogs and an easily navigable interactive Web site, Crestline has become a one-stop destination for custom imprinted products.

DMC Software Identifies How CRM Can Guide Small Businesses Through the Recession

DMC Software Identifies How CRM Can Guide Small Businesses Through the Recession

DMC Software Solutions, an award winning Sage and Microsoft Gold Business Partner, demonstrates how small businesses can utilise Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software to navigate through the turbulent economic conditions.

(Vocus) February 18, 2009 -- DMC Software Solutions, an award winning (http://www.dmcsoftware.co.uk/News/SageAwards2008.aspx) Sage and Microsoft Gold Business Partner (http://www.dmcsoftware.co.uk/News/dmc-get-gold.aspx), demonstrates how small businesses can utilise Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software to navigate through the turbulent economic conditions.

The UK is currently in the thick of a recession and it is the decisions that small businesses make today that will shape their future. There is a thin line separating success and failure, and the difference could be CRM.

Mike Ramsay, Managing Director of DMC Software expressed, "A CRM solution (http://www.dmcsoftware.co.uk/CRM/CRM-software-overview.aspx) enables businesses to safeguard revenue and profitability by facilitating quality customer service, customer loyalty and repeat purchases. For many small businesses cutting costs seems like the best option moving forward, but during an economic downturn it is more important for companies to look for a solution that will provide them with the tools to increase efficiency and productivity."

A CRM system allows a business to record all account and contact details including a history of each exchanged communication. This information resides in one central location where it can be accessed by users from different departments. Not only does a CRM system allow better communication with a company's client base it also improves internal communications, an equally vital component of quality service and strong client relationships.

How CRM can help Your Business?

A well implemented CRM solution (http://www.dmcsoftware.co.uk/CRM/CRM-software-overview.aspx) can provide a business with many opportunities to utilise available resources and optimise more profitable activity. CRM is an increasingly popular solution to support operational improvements, enabling a business to:

•    Protect and grow revenue

•    Plan time more efficiently

•    Reduce administration costs

•    Streamline business processes

•    Quickly recognise and correct issues

•    Prepare for economic recovery

•    Identify revenue opportunities within the existing client base

•    Utilise resources to maximum effect

DMC Software is a company that is experienced in providing Customer Relationship Management (CRM) (http://www.dmcsoftware.co.uk/CRM/CRM-software-overview.aspx), Accounts and integrated business solutions for businesses of all sizes, across a broad range of industries. With advanced development abilities DMC can tailor a solution to meet the exact requirements of a business, providing the tools and supporting services to increase efficiency and profitability.

Tek-Tools Expands Capabilities in Virtualization, Storage, Data Protection in IT Resource Management Software

Tek-Tools Expands Capabilities in Virtualization, Storage, Data Protection in IT Resource Management Software

Profiler Delivers Information for More Informed IT Decision Making

Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) February 13, 2009 -- Tek-Tools Software (http://www.tek-tools.com/), a leading provider of IT resource management software solutions, today announced the completion of a successful early release program with eight Tek-Tools customers. As a result, the newest version of the Profiler Suite (http://www.tek-tools.com/products/overview.php) is now generally available including:

• expanded support for virtualization with enhancements to Profiler for VMware (http://www.tek-tools.com/virtual/overview.php) and new storage virtualization module, Profiler for IBM SVC (http://www.tek-tools.com/virtual/overview.php)

• new storage module, Profiler for EqualLogic (http://www.tek-tools.com/storage/overview.php)

• new application support, Profiler for Exchange 2007 (http://www.tek-tools.com/app/overview.php)

Profiler's ability to monitor ever-changing, ever-expanding IT infrastructures and deliver real-time reports on performance and capacity utilization with an end-to-end view of the data path enables IT managers to identify and resolve problems in real-time as well as make critical time and cost saving decisions based on reality rather than guesswork. Additionally, the historical reports on performance and capacity utilization Profiler provides enable more accurate forecasting.

Long time Tek-Tools customer Global Crossing (http://www.globalcrossing.com/) (NASDAQ: GLBC), a leading global IP solutions provider, has recently been testing the new capabilities in the Profiler for VMware module. "Global Crossing is a leader in aggressively exploring 'green' strategies through data center consolidation and server virtualization," said Michael Gresens, principal systems engineer, technical architecture, Global Crossing. "Profiler gives us a more complete and clear picture of the infrastructure, which enables us to more proactively manage and optimize our IT resources, including the reduction of power and HVAC consumption. And, in this new version, the single dashboard view of all our Virtual Machines gives us a quick snapshot of the relative health and status of our VMware environment based on the thresholds we've set. I can quickly see if there's a problem with one of the Virtual Machines that requires further investigation rather than having to look at each one individually."

Expanded capabilities in Profiler for VMware

As the virtualization footprint in today's IT infrastructures continues to grow, Tek-Tools continues to broaden Profiler for VMware's capabilities for managing and maximizing VMware. The latest enhancements to the Virtual Machine monitor enables IT managers to see the health and status of all Virtual Machines from a single screen. The Virtual Infrastructure Dashboard now delivers a view of the entire virtual infrastructure enabling users to quickly and easily drill down into its elements for further investigation. Additionally, from within Profiler for VMware, users can view, create and modify ESX and VM groups.

New Profiler for IBM SVC Module

Accommodating customers' movement toward storage virtualization, Tek-Tools has developed the new Profiler for IBM SVC module. With this module, users can monitor and obtain high-level views of the virtualized storage infrastructure that are currently not available with native tools that focus primarily on configuration. Plus, the information is available from the same Profiler resource management console as other infrastructure components, giving the user a single destination for monitoring and management of the IT infrastructure.

New Profiler for EqualLogic Module

Tek-Tools new Profiler for EqualLogic module brings reporting and monitoring capabilities to include support for EqualLogic's iSCSI SAN arrays, delivering performance, trending and forecasting data that was previously unavailable. With this timely information on available storage drives, IT managers can make more informed decisions as to when to archive data and when to purchase more disk.

New Profiler for Exchange 2007

With the addition of support for Exchange 2007, IT managers can map the Exchange datapath from the server, physical or virtual, to the LUN in order to locate where Exchange data is on the SAN. The ability to now see where Exchange data is physically located aids in achieving compliance with security policies and regulations as well as service-level agreements. In addition, this end-to-end visibility enables trending, alerting and performance optimization.

Pricing

Tek-Tools continues to offer competitive pricing for its Profiler Suite. The one Profiler server required remains at $4,000. The Profiler for VMware module remains $995 per ESX host regardless of the number of guests on the server. Manufacturer's suggested retail price for the new modules are priced as follows:

•    Profiler for IBM SVC -- $12K per IBM SVC

•    Profiler for EqualLogic -- $3K per EqualLogic member

•    Profiler for Exchange 2007 -- $1,500 per Exchange 2007 server

"In today's economy, every expenditure is being scrutinized more so than ever before. IT departments are charged with providing and maintaining IT infrastructure to support businesses with smaller staffs and little or no budget for capital expenditures," said Tek-Tools CEO Ken Barth. "Profiler helps IT managers quickly understand the IT resources they have in place and how to squeeze more value out of them or make a solid business case for absolutely necessary capital improvement."

About Tek-Tools

Tek-Tools Software, Inc. is a leading provider of IT resource management solutions serving customers from the Fortune 50 to the Fortune 5000 across every major vertical market.
