Ascend Technologies and ALMACO have a longstanding partnership, leveraging Salesforce as their foundational tool. ALMACO has embarked on the “Crawl, Walk, Run” journey under Ascend’s guidance, inching closer to achieving a “single source of truth”. As Jayson Schwienebart said, “Everyone’s putting information somewhere. Let’s be intentional about it the first time and eliminate error and rework.” Initially serving their storage for contact and opportunity management, this system has matured into a sophisticated solution, with applications in service, forecasting, marketing, and portfolio management.
