For the first time, Cydcor, the leading provider of outsourced, face-to-face sales teams, earned top honors overall for Sales and Marketing Outsourcing in Brown-Wilson Group/Datamonitor “The Black Book of Outsourcing’’ 2009 annual survey. Among other elite vendor and performance ranking honors, Cydcor earned the survey’s highest overall client satisfaction, ranking at 93 percent.

In four “vendor function’’ categories, Cydcor earned top honors in two categories: 1) sales team outsourcing and 2) sales support service. The Cydcor team captured first place in “key performance’’ rankings, including vendor overall preference, training, trust, deployment and outsourcing implementation, integration and interfaces, reliability, data and security backup services, support and customer care, and best of breed technology and process improvement.
