The winners will be announced at the Software Marketing Perspectives Conference and Expo occurring May 7th through 9th in Santa Clara, CA. TriActive has been selected as a finalist in the most innovative service/business model category.

The Software Marketing Perspectives Conference and Expo is the leading industry forum for technology product managers, marketing managers, and their VPs and directors, to stay current in their field and network with peers. The conference adopts a comprehensive view of the responsibilities of technology product managers and those of the surrounding members of the product management and marketing team. The SoftwareCEO Software Innovation Awards will recognize innovative software products and new business models in eight different categories.

"The SoftwareCEO Innovation Award recognition is validation of our unique managed services solutions and viable, SaaS business model," said Ron Halversen, TriActive VP of marketing. "Our hosted delivery model enables us to find immediate cost savings for our customers and partners and complete mundane, IT tasks - freeing up IT personnel to concentrate on more vital company issues. And there is no upfront costs for hardware or training, and no long-term agreements."

"SoftwareCEO's annual Software Innovation Awards recognize our industry's efforts and accomplishments in bringing innovative products and new business models to market," said David Sommer, chief operating officer, CompTIA, and publisher of SoftwareCEO. "The companies selected as finalists for these prestigious awards are delivering real business value to customers with their products and services. We are pleased to recognize their achievements."

"We are honored to be selected as a finalist in the SoftwareCEO Innovation Awards," said Poul Nielsen, TriActive, CEO/President. "This validates that our SaaS systems management solution solves some of the biggest challenges we face today. First is security and on-going management of the fast growing number of ROBO, SOHO, and mobile systems. On-premise tools can't reach those systems and can't effectively scale. The second is a pay as you go pay model that eliminates all of the financial risk and technical risk for IT and Service Providers, which for Service Provider enables a cash-flow positive delivery model for their business."
