Glen Manchester, CEO at Thunderhead, commented, “We’re thrilled to be named as a Watchlist Winner for 2020. The Watchlist is a significant landscape review of companies making the most impact in customer-facing technologies, and we’re especially honoured this year to be a Winner with Distinction.

The core CRM technology markets – Marketing, Sales, Service and Commerce – are at a point of strategic inflection, brought about by the Customer Engagement paradigm, which is redefining not only the way in which brands acquire and service their customers, but the very process of value creation and growth in the digital economy. This requires a new generation of enterprise technology for which Thunderhead is the pioneering leader, which is why it’s so gratifying to recognized by the Watchlist with Distinction. Meanwhile, we’ve been busy developing the next level of AI-driven journey-based customer intelligence, and there will be more on that in the coming weeks.”
