Leading Analyst Firm Cites Accept Corporation for Improving Decision Making Via Collaborative Process

Santa Clara, CA – September 28, 2010— Accept Corporation, a leader in product innovation management today announced that it has been recognized by IDC, a leading provider of global IT research and advice, as an "innovative information access company to watch with annual revenue under $100 million."

Accept received the IDC Innovation Award for its vision and the ability of its technology to have an impact on the marketplace by delivering innovative products. Its collaborative software, Accept360, was cited as an innovative application that exemplifies the trend in Collaborative Decision Management, one of the three trends considered by IDC analysts to be notable drivers of change in information access and management strategies for 2009–2010.

"With the flattening of business hierarchies, and more and more people involved in decision making, collaborative decision management is becoming an area attracting a variety of solution providers with creative approaches. Here, the worlds of information access, collaboration, and business process management meet from a technology perspective. From a business perspective, Accept is a successful vendor that has identified the decisions that have both a significant financial impact on organizations and are drivers of future investment," said Henry Morris, senior vice president, Worldwide Software and Services, IDC.

The ability to harness information in the enterprise will be a key differentiator for organizations in the next five years. For that reason, IDC notes that applications that access, manage, and analyze all types of information can constitute a significant competitive advantage and are, therefore, being adopted quickly. The Accept360 software suite provides a single system of record and proven end-to-end product innovation management capabilities to maximize the return on product R&D investments and increase customer loyalty. This innovative approach of supporting collaborative decision-making is recognized by IDC as having appeal to organizations whose desire is to rapidly drive product or service development priorities that directly translate into higher customer satisfaction rates and faster time to profit.

About IDC's "Innovative Companies Under $100M to Watch"

IDC's "Innovative Companies Under $100M to Watch" reports are a qualitative evaluation of a set of vendors within a specific market – they are not a stack ranking nor do they represent an exhaustive evaluation of all companies in a segment or a comparative ranking of the companies in the report. IDC solicited entries from vendors of less than $100 million that exemplify specific key trends (selected by analysts) that are driving change in a specific software market. Vendors submitted case studies that exemplified one of the trends used as the basis for the award. These case studies were evaluated individually and independently by related market analysts across several pre-determined criteria. The case studies submitted for review had to demonstrate that the technology was available, able to be implemented, and provided real-world benefits to the customer.
