Salesboom.com Makes On demand Hosted CRM Software Accessible
Salesboom.com, industry leading provider of on demand hosted CRM software applications, today announced a new User Interface option for the blind and visually impaired Salesboom users. The new interface, which completely redesigns the existing Salesboom UI, is the first of its kind in the on demand hosted CRM software industry, and is set to pave the way for more visually impaired accessibility options in the future. Salesboom is also planning on releasing a keyboard-to-voice engine integrated into the Salesboom system, which would allow users with visual impairments to have the Salesboom small business CRM software system read back the data that was input. The new user interface update is available immediately to all Salesboom on demand hosted CRM software users.
“This marks a huge breakthrough for the CRM industry in regards to accessibility,” commented Troy Muise, Salesboom CEO and Co-Founder. “By releasing this enhancement, Salesboom is continuing down the path which our competitors refuse to take - the one which gives accessibility to our end users across the board with no limitations. The President of the United States recognizes the importance of accessibility with his launch of the Freedom Initiative. Salesboom is firmly committed to providing users with disabilities assistive technology to help them utilize our on demand hosted CRM software system. We will continue to trail-blaze and innovate in this and other areas, while our competition simply stagnates.”
The new assistive technology for the Salesboom CRM system is an important benefit for organizations which work with blind or visually impaired people in securing employment, as it provides a great system for use internally as well as with partner companies in providing stable and accessible work places. Salesboom will be a clear leader in both Adaptive Technology and Assistive Technology for years to come.
“The new Accessibility Theme will make the lives of a number of our visually impaired users much easier at their workplace,” Commented John Courtney, a senior software engineer at Salesboom.com who is also visually impaired, and has been with the company since development started in 2001. “In the United States alone there are over 3 million visually impaired people in the workforce. What surprised me is learning that we were the first on demand hosted CRM provider to reach out to them.”
