The first of these solutions, Onyx’s Investment Management Edition, will consist of Onyx’s new Internet-based platform and native-XML integration services running on Microsoft(R)
.NET Enterprise Servers to enable deep business process customization and extensive legacy application integration. The offering also will include industry-specific CRM strategy services from RevenueLab, a strategy consulting firm recently acquired by Onyx. The vertically aligned Microsoft and Onyx sales forces will initially target the financial services industry, with particular focus on investment management and retail financial services worldwide.
In addition to their direct sales and marketing efforts, Microsoft and Onyx will work with complementary businesses to further serve the targeted vertical markets. Those will include systems integrators, vertical service providers, outsourcers, strategy consultants, and other independent software vendors.
