Proforma Makes InformationWeek 500 List

Cleveland-based Proforma recently announced it has earned a spot on the InformationWeek 500 list of the nation's most innovative users of information technology. This is Proforma's second consecutive year appearing on the prestigious list. Proforma's recognition on the InformationWeek 500 is based on the implementation of Nimble Storage Technology, a more efficient, environmental and economical answer for data storage.

"We are very pleased to be included on the InformationWeek 500 list," said Greg Muzzillo, founder of Proforma. "We strive to continually provide Proforma Owners with technology solutions that give them an advantage over their competition by streamlining their day-to-day business processes. Implementing a modern and efficient way to store data for our Owners is just one way we are using technology to help our Owners increase their sales and take their businesses to the next level."

In the past year Proforma has also completed a $5 million investment in developing an enterprise solutions technology platform, designed to significantly increase Proforma Owners' North American and global enterprise client base by integrating third-party lead generation tools and providing more bidding opportunities. This investment has included cutting-edge technology upgrades to help streamline business-to-cash management systems, develop a state-of-the-art ERP system and integrate advanced CRM techniques.

In addition to being listed on the InformationWeek 500, Proforma was named the 2013 #1 Top Distributor by Promo Marketing magazine and the #2 Top Distributor by Counselor and Print Solutions magazines. Proforma also received two InHouse Design Awards from Graphic Design USA this year.

Each member of Proforma also has a full suite of support including access to award-winning marketing campaigns, a newly enhanced technology platform, financial backing, free credit insurance, the buying clout that lowers costs 5-to15 percent with a proven vendor network and more.
