Competitive Landscape

Comparison Matrix showing the top 11 direct sales apps, showing Penny AI as the most enterprise-ready and complete option

A key success metric of a new software partner is the adoption rate by both corporate and the field. In a recent industry survey, 89%* respondents identified digitization as a key initiative critical to their organization’s success, but many respondents also noted that its delivery across the entire organization would require comprehensive “change management” strategy and resources. These two factors led us to look into the Platform Completeness and Scalability of each solution.
