LiveHive Selected as Winner of 2014 NextGen Social & Collaboration Awards

SAN JOSE, Calif., May 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LiveHive, the analytics-driven sales engagement solution, today announces that it is recognized as the Overall Winner & Most Innovative solution in the SIIA NextGen Awards for Social and Collaboration.

SIIA's NextGen program provides exposure to early-stage companies delivering game-changing solutions. The program aims to bring awareness to 6 verticals: Mobile, Social & Collaboration, Big Data, Security, Healthcare, and Financial Services. Nominating companies were judged by a group of industry experts who determined the Most Innovative, Most Disruptive and overall NextGen winner of the category.

LiveHive is a sales acceleration solution that provides sales professionals with detailed, real-time information on which communications are working to engage prospects and which aren't. The analytics-driven service allows sales teams to uniquely collaborate to share materials that keep prospects engaged and quicken the turnaround time from initial contact to closing the deal. LiveHive's suite of analytics includes valuable data that shows how engaged prospects are with the Opportunity Ranking feature, where leads are coming from geographically with the Sales Coverage Map and how far along prospects get through a sales presentation with PowerPoint insights.

"We are honored to receive this award as LiveHive has focused heavily on providing sales teams with a solution that allows them to collaborate across the board and provides professionals with tools to enhance their social selling efforts across multiple platforms," said LauraLee Lilyquist, VP of marketing at LiveHive. "LiveHive gives sales teams direct insight into the success of their sales materials and allows them to track and evaluate their prospects' engagement with distributed collateral."

"Much of the discussion about market disruption has focused on large, brand name businesses, but there is tremendous innovation taking place at companies that get little attention," said Rhianna Collier, Vice President of the Software Division at SIIA. "NextGen companies–chosen by a Selection Committee comprised of M&A, VC and advisory executives–are young businesses that offer cutting-edge software and services."
