integration framework to enterprise IT groups in these regions; a focus
that integrates applications without writing code, reduces cost and
improves business process management. The new relationships will provide
local consulting services for sales, implementation and support.
Using Cicero in call centers and across the enterprise, companies can:
-- Reduce costs by lowering call times and shortening training time.
-- Improve end user productivity by eliminating tasks and streamlining
business processes.

end users that incorporates additional functionality such as single sign-
on, a 360 degree view of customer information and others.

opportunities, as well as enforce business rules for compliance.
"Cicero is a perfect fit for WFM Logic," said Jody Powers, president. "We
pride ourselves on providing our clients with industry leading technologies
that will put them ahead of the competition, realize short ROI timelines
and allow them to focus on managing their business rather than soothing
administrative pains. The decision was simple; Cicero meets all of those
criteria."
"Cicero's solution is fully aligned with Empower Technologies' aim of
providing its customer cost reduction solution through technology," said
Ricardo Hori Nakamura, CEO of Empower Technologies. "The Brazilian market
is in need of solutions that improve efficiency and save time. Now, with
Cicero, we will be able to offer a more complete solution to our customers,
from the server infrastructure to the end-user desktop integration."
