Never before has any industry seen an organization that meshes the needs of both buyers and sellers quite the way we do. For IT decision makers the benefits are obvious. The true testimony of our coming of age in terms of market dominance however, lies within the manner in which the software vendors themselves have gotten behind the program. Granted, at the outset we were a bit of a thorn in their sides. Understandably, because of our rather extensive vetting process and stringent requirements specifically for CRM.

TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet

Q: How is 'Percent Match' calculated?
A: The Percent Match calculation demonstrates the real power of the eBestMatch Engine. The Percent Match is our patented calculation that helps IT decision makers avoid some of the problems with simply using a weighted average (the Ability to Meet Criteria like CRM for CRM) calculation is a weighted average. This calculation becomes useful when the decision maker wishes to consider the consistency of scores across all of the criteria in addition to the vendors Ability to Meet Criteria calculation. The eBestMatch Engine runs through patented algorithms to generate a Weighted Average Composite Index (WACI), which is a number between 0 and 1. A WACI of 1 indicates that a vendors scores were very consistent throughout the RFI. Those vendors with a WACI below 1 have inconsistencies in their scores across the RFI. The degree to which the scores are inconsistent determines the WACI. The Percent Match is a simple calculation of: The Ability to Meet Criteria (x) WACI.
