Q3 Revenue was strong and kept pace with the increased spending levels allowing the company to both have strong growth and significant improvements in the operating margin. These financial results are a strong signal regarding the technological improvements that have been made against the company’s core product lines including the ongoing transition of its client base to its new technologies,” said Cameron Watt, President & Chief Executive Officer.

“We will continue our investments in recurring revenue products as well our accelerated sales and marketing plans to enter the Customer Experience Management (“CEM”) software market in 2018. The CEM Market is large, it is growing, and Intouch already has products which become inputs to a CEM solution. Initially we will be targeting our current industries and customer base which is an estimated $700 million greenfield market. We are very optimistic about the future direction of the company and look forward to accelerating our software vision,” said Watt.
