Arlington, MA, March 15, 2005 - Glance Networks, Inc., pioneers of the simple, reliable screen sharing service for instantly showing live PC screens to anyone online, today announced that TechniCon Corporation, a leading provider of e-commerce solutions for complex products, is using their service as an integral part of their sales process. TechniCon has developed interactive sales systems for a wide range of manufacturers, including Daimler-Chrysler, Motorola and Steelcase and utilizes Glance to shorten their sales cycle and maximize revenue opportunities.
"Glance is the best service on the market today and it's become a strategic part of our sales process," commented Tony Mirante, founder and president at TechniCon. "We have used many other services unsuccessfully for sales demonstrations, including Webex and Placeware. Many of these web conferencing services are laden with features and force a conference room full of people to wait up to 30 minutes for set up. Glance's user interface is simple, as well as the service itself. We simply click to demonstrate our software live to anyone, anywhere - reliably and fast."
Glance is a simple, reliable and affordable screen sharing service for instantly showing a live view of a PC screen to anyone with an Internet connection. Everything you see, your guests also see, click by click. Glance allows users to demonstrate software, give presentations, qualify sales prospects, go over spreadsheets, provide technical assistance or training, show designs and review documents. Every mouse movement and screen update is seen instantly.
"TechniCon enjoys the tremendous sales advantage that Glance provides to small-to-medium sized businesses, maximizing sales with minimal cost," commented Rich Baker, chief executive officer of Glance. "They are able to demonstrate their software without having to travel to multiple locations, cutting their sales cycle in half. We are delighted they have come to rely on Glance as their most cost-effective sales tool, allowing them to maximize revenue opportunities."
To join a Glance session, guests do not need to download any software. They are able to connect into a web demo in seconds, with no learning curve. The Glance screen sharing service's simplicity and affordability is particularly conducive to small-to-medium sized businesses (SMBs).
