"Like Xactly, Centive is a 100-percent on-demand sales compensation and sales performance management company with a strong customer base and solid product platform," said Christopher Cabrera, president and CEO, Xactly Corporation. "The synergies of combining our companies will offer significant value to our customers, including a broad portfolio of purely on-demand SPM solutions, decades of domain expertise, an experienced partner ecosystem, and the long-term viability of a well-capitalized company."

SPM solutions automate all aspects of administering, tracking, reporting and analyzing sales performance. Especially in challenging economic times, companies rely on Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) solutions for SPM to maximize the effectiveness of sales and drive profits. Market analysts predict the SPM market will reach $8.2 billion by 2010.

"By acquiring Centive, Xactly has dramatically strengthened its position in the market as a leading provider of pure SaaS SPM solutions," said Jeffrey M. Kaplan, managing director of THINKstrategies and founder of the SaaS Showplace. "Combining the on-demand SPM capabilities of Centive and Xactly can help companies of any size, in any industry to boost sales and business performance, and generate increased revenues while reducing costs, which is especially important in today's tough economic environment."

Xactly will fully support both companies' product platforms for a minimum of 18 months to ensure the seamless transition of customers to a unified product roadmap. The company will continue to be led by Xactly's management team, and will maintain its headquarters in San Jose, California.
