Capital ID in MRM Magic Quadrant in Niche Players Quadrant


ZWOLLE, the Netherlands, March 12 /PRNewswire/ --     Capital ID, specialist in marketing operations management, today
announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the 1Q08 Marketing
Resource Management Magic Quadrant report(1).

The report says: "Although still immature compared with other,
more-established CRM markets -- for example, contact centers, sales force
automation (SFA) and campaign management -- MRM is gaining substantial
interest among midsize and large companies. During 2007, most vendors
continued to grow MRM revenue, win new customers and cross-sell into their
installed bases. Vendors increased their investments for product development,
marketing and sales distribution."

Luke McKeever, CEO at Capital ID: "We are delighted with our placement in
the MRM Magic Quadrant. We see it as recognition of the quality of our
software and our people, our vision for the future of our business, and -
above all - the great results our technology is driving for our customers.
The placement in the Gartner Magic Quadrant, in my opinion, gives us a strong
platform for our international expansion plans as Gartner is recognized
worldwide as a leader in independent technology research."
