LOTUSPHERE,ORLANDO, FL, January 21, 2008 – Trilog Group, Inc., a leading provider of collaborative project management solutions, today announced several new features to ProjExec Online, the first Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)-based collaborative project management solution hosted on IBM WebSphere Portal, as well as a new Business Partner Referral Program. ProjExec Online, a finalist for the 2008 Lotus Award for Best Portal Solution, is being highlighted at Lotusphere 2008 in Orlando, Florida at pedestals 401 and 402 in the Product Showcase exhibition hall.

Architected from the ground up to cross enterprise boundaries, ProjExec Online delivers a powerful combination of real-time collaboration and advanced project management functions at a cost-effective price point.  As a hosted solution, with no software or hardware necessary to implement, ProjExec Online is an ideal solution for organizations that need to manage outsourced projects or customer projects among distributed teams with total visibility and confidence. ProjExec Online brings together all project partners and enables them to collaborate effectively with a convenient pay-as-you-go subscription model and an intuitive web-based user interface.

First launched in mid-2007, ProjExec Online is available as a complete online self-service model offering instantaneous account provisioning and activation with credit card payment, extensive tutorials and help features, plus a free 60-minute coaching session to get started.  Trilog Group is taking full advantage of the agility of the ProjExec Online SaaS architecture by regularly adding new features in incremental additions.  The latest additions to ProjExec Online include visual Gantt tracking, expanded project management resources and increased scheduling and tracking flexibility. 

Referral Program Creates Revenue Opportunity for Business Partners

ProjExec Online’s SaaS delivery model is also creating unique opportunities for the IBM Business Partner network.  Trilog Group has launched the ProjExec Online Business Partner Referral Program for business partners interested in offering on-demand collaborative project management solution to their customers.

“By creating the ProjExec Online referral program, we enable our fellow IBM Business Partners to offer their customers secure and reliable project collaboration with all the benefit of IBM’s leading enterprise portal technology along with IBM Lotus Sametime instant messaging and Web conferen­cing for one low, affordable monthly price,” said Alex El Homsi, President and CEO, Trilog Group. “In addition to the obvious revenue opportunity, partners can also use the ProjExec Online SaaS environment themselves to collaborate on projects with their customers and other project participants.  This is particularly valuable for small service providers that typically do not have the bandwidth or IT budgets to invest in costly hardware, software and skills to support project management methodology and best practices in-house.”

Participants in the new referral program will share a percentage of revenue from referred accounts based on 20% of first year revenue from newly referred subscriptions and 10% of revenue for each year thereafter.  The program is a unique opportunity for IBM System Integrators (SI) and Value Added Reseller (VAR) partners to enjoy additional revenue streams and enter the Software-as-a-Service arena, which will enable these partners to leverage the benefits offered by the IBM SaaS program.  Partners may also use ProjExec Online to collaborate on projects with their own customers, suppliers and partners at an affordable price.

Pricing and Availability

ProjExec Online is available through a four-tier flexible pricing structure to meet each company’s individual needs. Pricing packages range from month-to-month, six-month, annual or two-year plans with rates between $25 and $40 per user, per month.  Interested parties may take advantage of a free 30-day trial and 60-minute coaching session for project managers at no cost or obligation by visiting www.projexec.com.  Partners interested in the referral program should visit www.projexec.com/referrals or contact partners@triloggroup.com.  For additional information, please call (800) 818-2199 or contact sales@triloggroup.com.  For information on Trilog products, please visit www.triloggroup.com.
