Industry CEM pioneer has doubled revenues year-on-year for the past three years, leading to a profitable 2007

Dublin 16th January, 2008 – Irish Software Developer and leading pioneer and vendor of Customer Experience Management (CEM) software, Arantech, announced today that it has doubled its revenues each year for the last three years and completed a profitable 2007, posting sales of US$32.5 million for its CEM solution, touchpoint™.

Brendan McDonagh, CEO and founder of Arantech, said, “2007 was a turning point for CEM, with significant market adoption and industry recognition of this customer-centric process as a solution within both the OSS and BSS segments. As market leaders in this space this has translated into strong orders and significant growth.”

Arantech identified CEM as a much needed process within communications and pioneered the industry’s very first solution, delivering the first live CEM system to Vodafone in 2003. Since then it has delivered over 24 solutions to customers worldwide, including mobile operators from four of the six largest mobile operator groups in the world.

“We are not being complacent when we call ourselves the pioneers and creators of CEM. It’s a fact. And we are already well underway with phase two development of our CEM solution, which we believe will have an added transformational value proposition for our customers,” said James Doyle, Arantech’s VP Marketing.

“With the market developing at a rapid rate, as more and more operators recognise the value of CEM, Arantech is well ahead with its plans for the future, and we move into 2008 with a significant order pipeline,” McDonagh concluded.
