`T wo companies are using the pow-
`er of the Web and client/server ar-
`chitecture to help salespeople pro-
`mote products by drawing on their
`companies' data more effectively.
`Saratoga Systems earlier
`this
`month brought out Avenue. a Win-

`bilities. These products
`are built around Web
`browsers and push tech-
`nology that let salespeople
`find and deliver informa-
`
`future products — more efficiently
`than with unconnected applica-
`tions, officials said.
`Saratoga Systems' Avenue lets
`users compile databases of infor-
`mation salespeople need. such as
`sales and forecast numbers or back-
`ground on customers and leads.

`at both companies said.
`New features in CLM
`7.0 are smoother integra-

`ponents. including a common data-
`base that works as a user registry;
`integration of the sales-force au-
`tomation feature with Microsoft's
`Outlook program; and a calendar
`to schedule meetings.
`The idea is to help salespeople
`cultivate further sales with current
`customers — for example. by trac-
`ing the progress of current orders
