SPECIFIC IMPULSE

Founded in 1997, Specific Impulse specializes in leveraging the power of information architecture to serve the sales, marketing, and eBusiness needs of forward-thinking companies. Through their consulting division, they offer a full range of professional web services in user experience design, information architecture, web development, web hosting, and web/IT. Specific Impulse is dedicated to developing web solutions that reduce costs, increase productivity, drive sales, and dramatically improve... business execution. In 2000, when Software-as-a-Service was in its infancy (the same year SalesForce.com was introduced), Specific Impulse launched StageOne™, a powerful hosted control panel for managing virtually any web site content and business information. Using StageOne, companies can manage all their business processes, information sharing, sales intelligence, customer relationship management, and eMarketing needs, without requiring IT hand-holding and without staff needing to be trained in HTML or other web technologies. Easily configured and based on proven principles of information architecture, StageOne is designed to power complete eBusiness solutions. You can manage and track everything from business processes and information management to document and content management. StageOne also includes many eMarketing and eSales components, from personalized email campaigns and web site visitor registration to customer relationship management. For IT organizations, StageOne offers a powerful collaborative application development environment, built on principles of information architecture. An early member of the Allaire partner program, they built StageOne on the robust and scalable ColdFusion Java application server (now owned by Adobe). StageOne supports traditional database-driven development, AJAX/RIA and Flash MX. But StageOne is also offered on a SaaS model, and supports PHP, ASP.Net, and Java applications through web services and an XML layer. Today, through their StageOne Developers Alliance program, ColdFusion developers and Web/IT departments can rapidly build their own solutions on the StageOne platform. More
