Usually when we think of Internet stocks, we think of companies such as YHOO and AOL that are direct Internet plays. This is only the first generation of Internet stocks, the second generation will be application software which uses the Internet as a tool and communication link. A good example is FSTW which has been quietly preparing an Internet-concentric Sales Force Automation (SFA) enterprise package called NetGain.
The NetGain package takes SFA to the next level beyond today's client/server applications to thin-client access using only browser software on the client machines. NetGain was released Beta in Spring 1998 and the general release will be late Summer 1998. NetGain will set new standards for enterprise SFA solutions. |
