Sales Desk Software
Giva eSalesDesk
To win business, your Sales organization is constantly striving to better serve your prospects and customers.
However, for Sales to provide better service, your headquarters staff must be responsive to field requests.
To maintain your competitive edge, your entire organization must be quick to respond to sales inquires –
nothing can fall through the cracks.
Today, Sales relies on email and voicemail to work with headquarters. These emails and voicemails get forwarded
around, but nobody is accountable for a final resolution to a customer-related inquiry by a specified deadline.
Important issues are not escalated to the proper decision-makers in a timely manner. There is no way to record
account history in a centralized place and no way to measure the level of service provided to the sales organization.
Because there is no automated solution to help streamline the fast pace of Sales and Marketing interactions
friction results. A rift opens between your Sales and Marketing organizations, and you risk losing business.
Giva eSalesDesk
Giva eSalesDesk™ is a Sales and Marketing service desk software solution that helps sales representatives work
with product managers, marketing managers, sales support staff and other headquarters personnel to help you
better serve your prospects and customers. It automates and streamlines Sales and Marketing interactions,
while minimizing the risks of losing business due to poor responsiveness.

Why Giva?
Giva eSalesDesk delivers more than just a powerful, easy-to-use Sales
and Marketing service desk software solution. Built on a world-class
infrastructure, it offers:
- One-week deployment
- Best-in-class usability
- Three editions to meet your needs

Software™ option or local installation
One-Week Deployment
With easy set-up and configuration without programming, you can be
up and running on Giva eSalesDesk quickly. In fact, existing Giva
customers have deployed Giva eSalesDesk on a worldwide basis in one
week – an Internet connection and a standard Web browser are
all you need. In contrast, according to Aberdeen Group, other Sales
and Marketing service desk software solutions typically require trained
experts for set-up and customization, which may take three to six
months.
Best-in-Class Usability
The Giva eSalesDesk user interface is based on common Web navigation
metaphors and familiar icons, drastically reducing training time.
In fact, many Giva customers get up to speed on Giva eSalesDesk with
only a single one-hour training session.

Giva eSalesDesk is available in Standard Edition, Professional Edition,
or Enterprise Edition. All are world-class Sales and Marketing service
desk software solutions, and each includes a combination of powerful
features to meet the unique needs of your company.
The edition that is right for you depends on the size of your team,
the application components you need, and the level of customization
and integration you require.
Hosted or Locally Installed Deployment
As a true Web-native solution, Giva eSalesDesk is available either
with the Giva On Demand Software option hosted by Verizon Business
or locally installed on your infrastructure.
While some organizations prefer installing and running applications
internally, the Giva On Demand Software option gives you an alternative
– with this hosted Sales and Marketing service desk software
solution, you can immediately access services built on a world-class
infrastructure and delivered via the Internet.
With the Giva On Demand Software option, Giva eSalesDesk does not
